Exciting News!

I know many of you have stopped checking our blog....I believe this might be since I have not posted in over a year! I don't know why it is not not interesting to reread over and over the same post!
I wanted to post Patrick and I exciting news! We are pregnant! We are about 13 weeks along and due the very first of February. Things are going well so far. Two weeks ago we had our first ultrasound which was amazing. I can't believe on something so very small that we could see it fingers and eyes. It was also amazing to watch it move. Lots of flipping and swimming.
Patrick has nicknamed our child Max Power. It has been his favorite name for a very long time. I believe that he has visions of his son on the soccer field saying "Max Power max power now"
We are going to find out the sex as soon as week can. I know this is not the cool thing to do right now but I just can't wait. I can't wait to start saying he or she, and buying gender specific items. We should be able to know in about 7 weeks!
I really have not been too sick a bit of nauseousness, and tired, so I feel really lucky. The only bad thing that happened was during the 4th of July weekend I slipped a disk in my back. I was in so much pain we went the the emergency room. The doctor said there was not much he could do (no pain killers or muscle relaxers allowed) other than to ice and rest. He also told me to be really careful throughout the pregnancy because your joints loosen up to stretch :( I am doing much better now just a little sore!
I promise to do better with updates about what is going on!
I hope all of you are enjoying summer!
