Bump Watch...

Okay, so I was a bit of a late pregnancy bloomer- didn't "pop out" until about 18 weeks...but Cy & I are definately making up for lost time! YOWZA!!! Our little bambino now weighs about 11 oz. and is the size of a banana from head to toe.His ever-expanding mama is measuring right on schedule for our due date of June 6th. Clearly, from the belly shot below, most of my weight gain thus far seems to be localized to my "B & B" (boobs & bump ;). Cy Wesley has been a very active fella lately...what fun it is to feel his movements getting stronger & more frequent! Can't wait to meet our little man! So here you go...my belly shot @ 21 weeks.

Cy's New Nursery

Mom & I had such a blast purchasing Cy's new crib bedding & accessories for his nursery today! I'm not really a "theme" girl, but fell in love with this adorable vintage race car themed bedding set for our little man. I'm extremely pleased with the way that everything has come together- Thanks Mom!!! The nursery is currently a work in progress, but it's looking good so far. Here's a sneak peek...

IT'S A BOY!!!

Travis and I are extremely proud to announce that we will be welcoming a sweet baby boy in June! Cy Wesley Epperson is now weighing in at 10 oz & is roughly 6 inches long. His brain, heart, blood supply & vital organs were thoroughly checked during today's sonogram and all systems appear to be in perfect working order. Praise God!!! Travis has loved the name Cy since we met 10 years ago & Wesley is in honor of Travis' late grandfather, Charles Wesley. Needless to say, my sweet hubby is walking a bit taller today! Here are a few sonogram pictures of our handsome little man...

Look at that sweet face! Big eyes like his daddy!

I'm a boy!!

2 arms, 2 hands, 10 fingers

2 feet, 10 tiny toes

Oh, Happy Day!!!

Wow...19 weeks have flown by! I can't believe we will get the opportunity to find out the sex of our little bambino TOMORROW!!!! Oh, Happy Day!!! Our nugget has been quite the "mover & shaker" this week! It's so amazing to feel him/her wiggle & flutter about. I actually felt the baby's first substantial kick today...or maybe it was a left hook or jab :) I absolutely LOVE being pregnant...every day, it just gets better & better. I've heard remarks such as these can be contributed to 2nd trimester euphoria and will soon be replaced with complaints of heartburn, back aches, baby kicks to nearby ribs, etc. As for now, I am enjoying & extremely thankful for every new experience of this miraculous event. And yes...I now have a baby bump that I am incredibly proud of! Here's the most recent belly pic @ 19 weeks (well, almost).



I'm also including some random house pics for those of you who have asked to see them. We have loved our new home in Lubbock and are thrilled that almost all of the fabulous updates that you will see were completed prior to our arrival.
