My Sweet Baby Boy

I am 17 weeks which is so exciting and yet hard to believe. Sometimes it feel like just yesterday I took that pregnancy test that changed my whole world! I went to the doctor on Tuesday last week for just a normal check up plus some blood work. Your Aunt Abbey went with me this time and while we were there she got to hear your heartbeat, for her it was the first time to hear it and she thought that was so cool! For me even though it was my third time to hear you little heart beat it still is one of the most awesome sounds I have ever heard. It lets me know that you are ok and brings me a since of relief.

You finally have a name now, Coleman Lewis Crye. As you will most likely be told through out your life your name has "meaning" for a couple of different reasons. Coleman was my maiden last name and since I am one of three girls and your grandpa had no brother there are no boys to carry on that last name, at least in our immediate family so you will carry it on as your first name. As for Lewis not only is it your dad and grandpa Tony's middle name but also it was your great grandpa Lewis' first name. As for your last name just blame your dad for that! lol! I think it is cute to call you a "Crye Baby" now, hence the name of the blog, however as you get older I have a feeling you won't care for the name as much!

I think I might have felt you move for the first time on Saturday, I say might because I'm not completely sure since you are so small your moves are supposed to be faint so I have been told but it was definitely a different feeling than my normal stomach rumblings. It happened when your dad was rubbing on my stomach trying to get you to move so I better not already be seeing a trend that you are going to do more when your dad ask you to than me! I would also say that in the last couple of weeks I have noticed that I am somewhat starting to look more pregnant and less like I just had too many cupcakes, so that is exciting!

I feel like so much has happen in just a couple of weeks, I can only imagine what it is going to be like when you are actually here!

Love,
Mom
