OUCH!

All I have to say is that I think we have a BABY NINJA on our hands. I have been feeling him flip around in there for a few weeks now, but in the last few days it has been VERY noticeable and hard. I go Monday for another check up. It should be short and sweet!

Some Exciting News!

Owen was kicking up a storm last night. I told Brandon to put his hand on my belly. (We have tried this before but with no success.) Well, Owen decided that he was not going to be shy last night. He kicked his daddy! Brandon said, "Woah, I felt that!" It was wonderful. :)

Happy Anniversary!

It is crazy to think how much we have been through in the past two years. Both good and bad, I think that the best is yet to come. 
Happy 2 years!

BIG and little Happenings...

Some happenings in the Maynord house...

BIG HAPPENING:
 I am OFFICIALLY a big girl! I filled our taxes all by myself without any help whatsoever! Is there anything I can't do now?! I feel so liberated :)

Little Happening:
I went to visit my friend Cara yesterday. She lives in East Tennessee. This is her precious little girl, Nora Leigh Vaughn. (Born Feb. 11th) I think Owen will have a cute girlfriend! She was so little, I held her for hours, it was so much fun! A little taste of things to come perhaps? I just hope our little man is a easy as she is!

Owen Harris Maynord

Here is a video of part of the ultrasound. Sorry for the poor quality. I have a dvd that looks so much better and it is 10 minutes long. But here is a little glimpse. :)

Owen is.....STILL A BOY!

We went for our ultrasound yesterday and Owen was not shy about showing his parts! He is definitely still a boy. He was moving a kicking up a storm!

Here are his 5 toes! (Left bottom of the screen)

Owen's sweet yet slightly creepy looking little face that I can't wait to kiss!

Notice the arrow. This is a side shot. We saw "it" a little better but we did not get a shot.

Feelin' the Love!

Our baby boy has decided to finally let me feel him. It is the most amazing thing I have ever felt! I can just picture him doing flips and twists. (Now for the big kicks and punches.) I will be going back to the doctor on Friday for another ultrasound. I can't wait to see him again! I hope he smiles for mommy!
