Ryder Wesley Teague Caudill

We had a sonogram yesterday and were told that we are having a BOY! Little, or probably big, Ryder will be here around November 21!

It was so fun finding out that we were having a boy. There were only a handful of people who guessed that we would have a boy. So, congratulations to y'all!

Here are the sonogram pictures that we got yesterday! Enjoy...

This is the best one:

In this one you can see his eyes! A little bit creepy!

You can see his legs here! Knee to feet kind of draped over one another!

And here is the money shot where you can tell he is a he! Already embarrassing my baby boy.

Well, that's all for now. I was just anxious to share these pictures with everyone!

one day nothing...the next, belly!

Here are a few pictures from the past 10 weeks...

12 weeks:

14 weeks:

20 weeks:

and finally 22 weeks(a picture from 2 days ago):

I took a pretty long break from pictures as you can tell because you really couldn't tell that I was even pregnant until about a week and a half ago.
Anyways, I absolutely LOVE being pregnant. Pretty much everything about it. I love how my body is changing. I love that my belly is getting bigger and bigger. I don't mind gaining weight one bit. I never knew how I would feel about being pregnant once I was pregnant. How could I? But it is so beautiful. I think it is hilarious that the first thing I do when I go somewhere is find a bathroom. I laugh every time I leave a place and undoubtedly I already have to go to the bathroom again. I don't necessarily love getting up 6 times a night...but I've been sleeping better lately so how am I to complain. I also don't mind the morning(day and night) sickness. I'm not a masochist, I just like the fact that the sickness is such proof that I have a little tiny thing growing inside me.
Now that my body is showing more outward signs of being pregnant I couldn't be more excited! One thing I could do without is the added heat! I don't know how women who are further along than me even go outside.

I felt this little baby kick on June 17! It was the weirdest thing and from the first kick I have not stopped feeling little kicks and nudges. It is so fun for me to feel my baby moving but I wish Garritt could. One night while we were watching tv on the couch I told Garritt to put his hand on my stomach. I was feeling the baby move with such force I assumed Garritt would have to be able to feel it...but he couldn't. But I made him keep his hand there for about an hour anyways. Soon. G will be able to feel it though and we'll be able to SEE it kick. But, that will be on my mind after next friday...

The main thing on my mind lately is finding out the sex of this baby! I started allowing myself to look at baby things in the past 2 weeks and now I am obsessed! I cannot wait to know what this baby is so I can start calling it by name. We will find out the sex of our baby on Friday... THIS FRIDAY! LIKE IN 6 DAYS!!!
More about that later...
