My New Game: Baby or Gas

I felt the baby moving for the first time on Sunday...wasn't sure if it was gas or if the baby wanted some attention!! I am 99% positive that it was the little peanut trying to say "Hi." Well, I said hi back.
Afterward, I definitely felt some movement and I don't mean my bowels...haha! I don't know what the baby is doing but it feels like it is rolling around over and over. It is very weird.
I went out to lunch the other day and it started moving again. The radio was playing country music so I think the baby is a fan...uh oh. I then felt some kicking. It was so minor it might have been gas. But that's my new game as the title clearly states. I look forward to feeling something, anything and every time it happens I get so excited!! I can't wait to meet the little peanut. We are half way there!!!

The second baby pic

These pictures were taken during the first trimester screening. Preparation is key and we wanted to know everything we possibly could about our little peanut. During the ultrasound, the technician bumped our due date up to September 20 which means the little peanut is growing. Dax still thinks it will come more toward the end of September. Maybe it will be like its daddy...always late!


Here is the baby's head. It already is trying
to suck its thumb!












Here is another close up of the head. The thumb is slowly getting closer to the mouth.
Here is the whole body. You can see little hands and the BIG belly!



The little peanut turned just enough to show the camera its little tushie!!!















First Official Baby Pic


Here is the first official picture of Baby Steele. It is just a little peanut but its heart was racing. The doctor estimated our due date to be September 24th. Can't wait to meet the little guy or girl and I also can't wait to find out if it's a boy or girl so I can stop calling the baby "IT."
