The fun never stops

Well, William will be a month old in a couple of days. At his last ped. visit doc said everything looked great. He is doing really well. He loves eating like mommy and hates to go to sleep like daddy. Yet we mostly get pics of him asleep... hehehe .

He is being a really great kid. We are having too much fun and I know Ben will miss him when he goes back to work. He is getting sooo big and his features seem to change constantly...

Only Two Weeks Old

Each day we are amazed at what this kid does. He is only two weeks old and already lifting his head up on his own, fighting with daddy when he tries to swaddle him, and even though it may not be intentional, smiling!

Feedings every two hours are not so bad. I am able to manage daytime events while Ben handles the nightime feedings. We have been able to juggle it pretty well. But recently he was asking how long this would last. He was not thrilled to hear it would be about 3-6 months of 8-12 feedings per 24 hrs.

He is here!

Well, I am finally home and settling in. William Austin Stovall joined us on November 28th via c-section.
He weighed 8lbs 10 ozs and measured 19.5 inches.

Ben and I are totally in love.

Here is a pic of me before William's birth.

Comparisons...

37 weeks
Ooohh... who could it be? This child with chubby cheeks and thick lips? I wonder who he looks like...Ben and I are on a mission to find out whose nose William has inherited. More 3D pics
And what's up with that big foot?

20 weeks
Is this scrawny kid with the big forehead the same child?? :-p

37 weeks and counting...

I did not think I could get any bigger but Ben says I am getting bigger by the day.

We finally have a fully formed, full-term baby squished inside me. Dr. said he is about 7.5lbs and we are just waiting on him to make his grand entrance.

Babyshower at work

The fun and games continue as co-workers help Ben and I prepare for our little William.

Special thanks to Client Marketing (LAO-51), AFD Multimedia Team (LAO-49), and LAO CRS.

We really appreciate everything everyone has done for us and we will keep you all posted on what's going on with little William.

Baby Shower

Well, we had our baby shower at my mother's house hosted by my best friends, Jac and Leslie, my mom, and my sister Martha. It was a blast. There was a whole lot of food and we were trying to get everyone to take home a plate or three.

Now I am even more anxious for William to get here. Especially since we have clothes, burp cloths, hooded towels, and baby bottles for him.

William will be here soon...

We are very anxious to meet this little guy who moves all around inside me.

Ben is also looking forward to me gaining some comfort once little William is out.

It is getting harder to move around and sleep.

I am officially a Stovall...

Ben and I ran off to Las Vegas with Tony in tow... Labor Day weekend.

We decided why wait any longer. We got married around 11:58 PM on 09/02/06.

I am now in the process of doing my name change. It is proving to be a very daunting task. We will see how it goes.

A day at the spa...

Jac and Leslie took me to the spa.

Kristen couldn't make it and she was missed.

I got a full body massage, which I really needed. Being 26 weeks pregnant I was beginning to miss my old self.

After the massage I swam around in the pool then we all headed off to a Mexican restaurant for lunch. I really wanted a Margarita but I didn't think little William would have appreciated it.

We had been anxiously waiting to find out if we were having a boy or a girl.

It turns out we are having a boy. It was all well worth the wait.

We decided to name him William Austin Stovall.

A closer look...

Here he is at 20 weeks.

We went in to have the high level ultrasound done and the Dr. surprised us with the 3D & 4D views.

There is a bun in the oven...

We found out on March 25th that there was potentially going to be an addition to our twosome.

Mind you, this is the same night when we decided to become a "twosome". Ben proposed after picking me up from the airport.

This is an ultrasound of a 9 week old embryo. We have not scanned our photos but once I do, I will post them.
