Drum roll please...
















IT'S A BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you believe it? I am in a state of shock (good shock that is)! We will be having a beautiful little boy in August:-) He is already a whopping 1 lb and is measuring slightly ahead but not big enough to change my due date. His official name is Cooper E Hufford. I have always dreamed of having a son named Cooper (my maiden name) and E is the traditional male middle name on Garrett's side. They seem to go well together:) The only thing I wish was different about his name is that it means barrel maker. Couldn't it mean something a little cooler?? LOL Oh well. The name has special meaning to me because it was my name for so long and he is part of me...it just makes me smile:)
Oh, if you look at the profile picture you can see his little foot up by his head. He was all curled up! He had his hands by his face too:) He is breech right now but the doctor assured me that there is plenty of time for him to turn himself down.

This one is getting big too!





I am feeling better each day...finally. I can actually stay up later than 9pm and getting up in the morning isn't as bad as it was just a few weeks ago. Thankfully, Eden hasn't seemed to notice that mommy would rather lay on the couch than get down on the floor and play:)

March 30th we will hopefully find out if this Hufford is a boy or a girl!!!! I am super excited!! This little one has been kicking for awhile now and this little bug likes to kick Eden when I am feeding her. Garrett felt the baby move twice already! It is always fun when daddy gets to feel the baby since they don't get to feel the movements day in and day out.

In other news, we have been fighting ear infections like they are our job. Eden has had one in both ears for about 3 weeks now. She was first put on Amoxicillin but that didn't clear it up at all and in fact she has a bad reaction to it and was covered from head to toe with a nasty rash. She was just put on a baby Z-pack that has hopefully cleared up any remaining infection. Garrett has a perforated ear drum from his allergies causing so much pressure on his ears. He is on antibiotics to hopefully clear up any infection that he has as well. Other than that we are still doing well! Eden is still toothless and still loves to eat just about anything and now crawls! Well, she crawls backwards so this little nugget of ours is on the right track to hopefully crawl in the right direction soon:)

Here are some pictures of Eden when she was a sicky and of the new baby growing in me (well, it's me with my growing belly - not to mention thighs and arms and face...my whole body is pregnant! LOL).
