22 Weeks

Wow its already been another 2 weeks! Everything seems to be going great still!!!


Not sure if you can notice or not but I fail yesterday off my friends stairs at her house straight down onto my face. IF my chin scars Im going to tell Mia I was trying to save her ha!!  Mia is one strong little girl though...even if her momma cant walk ha!

I think my belly has moved up since 20 weeks!!! (I realize I look horrible in this pic but o well its for memories)

20 weeks! HALF WAY!!!

I am so excited to be doing my 20 week post!! Such a great feeling to know we are half way to meeting our sweet little girl! 


I am definitely starting to show! I love having a growing belly. I know its showing I had one little boy in my class say "Mrs. Barnes why does your belly keep getting bigger??!!" and I had a little girl in the hall way say "Mrs. Barnes do you have a baby in your stomach?" haha! Got to love kids they say the cutest things!


I am feeling her move a lot now! I love it and try to make her move when she doesn't but of course it doesn't work! Pregnancy has been amazing gift to me!! 


Here is the 20 week pictures:

We took the first picture in the morning then got my new stickers and had to take another picture with the sticker ha! Looks like my belly had grown just during the day. I have heard people say this so Im guessing its true!! 

18.5 Weeks

I can not believe that I am 18 almost 19 weeks! It has seemed to fly by so far! I am still feeling great! This pregnancy thing seems to be pretty great compared to what a lot of women go through! I am still walking or doing my pregnancy dvd! I am loving being pregnant! 
O and of course the highlight of my week is starting to feel flutters! It is so amazing that I can feel her moving! Cant wait for a big kick so Nic can start feeling her!

It's A.....

We had our gender revealing party last Friday night! I know I am way behind on posting! We were so happy to have most of our family to share in the joy! Here are a few pictures from the party! The only thing I didn't get was a pic of the people wearing blue or pink!

                                                                 GIRL or BOY!!!!

Our Cake! I loved it!

We decided to let our moms cut the cake since we already knew what was on the inside!

                                      ITS A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!
We are so excited! We didn't care either way what it was. After having a miscarriage we realized that every baby is a gift from God boy or girl! We are just glad she looked healthy! 

14 Weeks....Way Late

I am getting horrible at posting pictures. Here is me when I was 14 weeks.....the sad thing is I am so late I will be taking my 16 week picture on Thursday!! But o well!!! 

I still feel wonderful!!! Pregnancy has not been near as bad as it sounded. But Im sure the bigger I get it will be hard. I think that by me walking and swimming is helping me still feel great! In 11 more days we will hopefully find out what Baby Barnes is!!! I can not wait! Even though we both really don't care! It will just be fun to actually start naming the baby and picking stuff out! 

14 Week Picture

12 Weeks!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!!

I have had the 12 week marked in my calendar and was so excited to make it! Praise the Lord.

But I have a moment of honesty I must share....The past few weeks have been hard, I have been nervous, scared, you name it. I was reading a blog tonight and this women is also pregnant and has went through fertility problems. She was also having negative thoughts and fears. And said take it away!!!! Well what powerful words for me....Take it AWAY God!!! I am going to stop worrying about this baby that God has given us! HE is in control of this pregnancy and I know this is His child, so why am I worrying?? I am so thankful for being able to read these words of encouragment to apply this to my life!!
Please PRAY that I will continue to push these thoughts and Satin away because God is the one that needs my praises and glory right now!!

I am doing and feeling great!! I have been walking 2 miles about 5 days a week. I really think this is helping keep my weight down and me feeling good! Please continue to pray for us and the baby! I go to the doctor on Monday!! I can't wait to hear the heart beating again!!

My belly is not really grown any since 10 week picture. My pants are getting very tight though. I have never been so happy for my pants to be tight in my life ha! Thanks for all your prayers!

10 weeks

I am a little late posting this...but we have been at the beach!!!

Last Thursday marked 10 weeks. Praise the Lord! So by the time I get this post up it will be time for 11 weeks. But o well.
Yesterday I went to the doctor (my mom got to go with me since Nic had to work!) Everything is looking wonderful. I could actually tell it was a baby! So amazing! I feel so blessed to be carrying this child!

Here is 10 week picture.(at the beach!!!) Yes I feel like my belly is starting to show a little. It looks bigger in this picture than it really is ha! Madison just told me I can see your baby ha! But I am so glad its rounding out, reminds me that there is a healthy baby!!!


We have a strong heart beat....182!!! Yes I know its high, and by the old wise tale its probably a GIRL! That's my guess anyways!! But praise the Lord its a strong heart beat! And if it really is a girl I cant wait...

                                                 Baby Barnes at 10 weeks!
I go back to the doctor in 2 weeks. They will continue to see my every 2 weeks until after 12 weeks. I am so thankful they are watching me so close, it helps with my worries!
