The world is getting a little "Green"er

Josh and I are SO excited because we are adding to our little Green family! 

 So excited and nervous to find out I was pregnant! 

My cute husband surprised me by cleaning the kitchen, mopping the floors, and buying me chocolate and flowers while I was at a meeting the next night. 

It was really hard to even believe we were actually going to have a baby until our first doctor's appointment and even then it was still hard to believe. He pulled out the ultrasound machine and pointed to a little blob on the screen and said, "There's your baby!" 

And then I got sick and it was easy to believe I was pregnant. This is how I spent the majority of the next 6ish weeks...the true beauty of pregnancy. Then I caught a cold which led to an ear infection, and a really bad sore throat still with the nausea all day long. The worst part about feeling sick all day, especially when you LOVE eating food, is that nothing sounds good. Except chicken nuggets. And pizza. Luckily I have an awesome husband who not only kept up with the laundry, cleaning, cooking, and his job, but also getting me chicken nuggets and pizza whenever I asked. He also had to eat the pot roast leftovers ONLY when I was in our room with the door shut and the window open. The day before I started feeling really nauseous, I made pot roast for dinner and only ate a little bit before feeling sick. After that, the smell, thought, or even looking at the pot roast made me sick. To tell you the truth, even though I'm not sick all day anymore, I'm still scared of pot roast ha

Luckily, the day I hit 12 weeks I was miraculously healed. I felt 100% better and I haven't felt really sick since!

 We told our parents with an Easter package and an ultrasound of our sweet babe in the golden egg.

 Baby Green waving hello! 

Sometime between 17 and 20 weeks my belly popped out! Since getting over my nauseous days, I really didn't feel pregnant because I basically looked the same, just a little tubby. So I was glad when I started to look pregnant instead of just like I ate too much. I'm sure I'll regret that comment in the future when I'm huge, but its nice to have people look at me now and automatically know I'm pregnant instead of looking at my stomach with a confused look on their face. 

20 weeks at the beach in Outer Banks for our Jurgensmeier reunion. Linsy is also having a girl and she was 22 weeks. Brad is just funny. This picture is a semi-remake of this picture when Linsy was pregnant with Beau.

We found out at 19 weeks that we were having a sweet little GIRL! We're so excited and nervous to be parents. At first I was a little bummed that pregnancy lasts soooo long because I want our baby to be here now! But I definitely still need time to get ready to be a mom! And now, that I'm over halfway done, I feel like time will fly! It is so fun to feel our little girl moving around now and to start collecting baby things! Baby girl things are just SO cute but so far we've been really good at not going crazy and buying everything in sight! Can't wait for September 23rd!
