Hello, So we are at 19 Weeks...only a few short days until we turn 20 Weeks...halfway there...holy moly. We have amazing news this Week...we are having a..................drum roll.......................... We could not tell you how excited we are! I am not gonna lie when we cut the cake open I was a tad bit disappointed...I really really wanted a girl! But I am so happy and excited to have 2 boys...Yay! Besides we will have a few more tries for a girl anyways. I can just imagine our little men growing up together. Isaiah being a Big Brother...to a well Brother <3 YAY!!!!! Getting ready for this Baby is going to be super easy, I just need to go grab the Newborn-3 Months bin of clothes packed away and start organizing them...maybe give them a nice wash (since they have been in storage for the past 12 Months!!! Eeeeek....A Boy!!! We get to pull out all of Isaiah's itty bitty little clothes out again. We are thinking of names alright...and we have 2 amazing names picked out already, of course I am not about to share with you....you'll just have to wait until Baby Boy Madsen arrives. We are so completely in Love. 2 Boys <3 I have been feeling pretty amazing this past week. I am feeling baby kick so much more now and they are moments I am holding onto in my heart forever. It is still unbelievable that there is a tiny little life being formed inside of me right now...God is so amazing. Pregnancy is so amazing and I am so Thankful that I get to experience this time. Baby Buys for this Week...(still waiting on those darn diapers to arrive) we just picked up some more burp cloths from ikea...they look really nice. I bought 2 packages and 2 come in each package. Fun prints for sure. I haven't been craving really anything different these past few weeks. My "Sweet" tooth has definitely arrived....I didn't crave sweets at all in my first Trimester...but this Trimester...Oh My...I need a kick in the butt. But I guess in all fairness I am pregnant and this is definitely the time to have the excuse of eating what I crave...haha. The Gender Reveal Party was loads of fun. I have a post separate of the party so go and have a look at that. It was an awesome idea and pretty much all the things I made for the party I got from Pinterest! My Mother and siblings were able to come down and be here for that as well, so that made it very special to me. It's always so nice to have my Family come to events. As well as my Dad and Sister who live here too :) And of course all of Jayden's Family and our other Family (Awesome Friends) Such a good time. How Big is Baby for Week 19? : Baby is the size of a Mango! (Half a pound in weight and about size inches long...) Holy Moly. Baby is growing...and I can sure tell. I am packing on the pounds like I did with Isaiah about now. The scale is just continuing to rise...I better slow down on the sweets and take out. Just to be sure that it is only baby and water weight and not fat...hahah. There is not much else going on this week, so I decided to post this earlier than I normally would. Well here are my questions for the week. Enjoy! How far along? 19 Weeks 3 Days Pregnant (I know I am a little early...couldn't wait to write) Total weight gain and bump measurements: 1.6 Weight Gain Weight:159 lbs. (This is getting crazy...hopefully I will slow down soon) 40.5 Inch Bump (no change this week) Maternity clothes? I am wearing my Motherhood maternity skinny jeans and I just got this maternity top from H&M. Stretch marks? No Sleep: Still waking up to use the bathroom at least once a night (preparing myself for the night feeds I guess haha) Best moment this week: Finding out we are having a BOY!!!! Miss anything? More than 1 small cup of coffee a day. haha Movement: Yes it is getting stronger and more frequent during the day. Food cravings: Chips, Iced Tea, Wings, Fries, Poutine....gah anything that is freakin bad for me :( Anything making you queasy or sick: No...and I got over the eggs thing (cross my fingers) Gender: Boy!!!! EEEEEKKK!!!! Labor signs: no Symptoms: Sore Boobs. haha Belly button in or out? in Wedding rings on or off? on Happy or moody most of the time: Happy...more than Happy. Looking forward to: Everything. Thanks so much for stopping by, Hope you liked my post!

Hello, Well we had a pretty amazing Weekend. My Mother and Siblings came down to visit and we had out very first Gender Reveal Party for our little Peanut. Last Week...Monday to be exact we had our Ultrasound...we were told that they may not be able to determine the gender! But we thought we would give it a try anyways. I had been planning the Gender Reveal Party for over a Month and when I found out my Family were coming down I thought we would chance the results and just stick with our plan to have the Party the following Saturday. The Ultrasound Tech was nice enough to write down the Gender for us on a little piece of paper after she searched the Baby for 5 minutes! So sweet! After the Ultrasound we went to my In-Laws house and I immediately took that little piece of paper and stuck it in an envelope and sealed it (I swear on my life I did not cheat and look at the paper...which was kind of hard to do...but I didn't) So like it always happens this way I saved all the decorations for last minute. I starting making decor on Thursday (with the help of my lovely bestie Allana...who I am so thankful for) and I finished making everything about 2pm on Saturday (when the party started at 3pm) lol. So my goal this Year is to really be more on top of things and really start planning things far more than 3 days in advance...haha! Here are pictures of the party. Hope you enjoy. Here I have bows to draw and cut out as well as moustaches. Of course the Hershey's Bars with He/She highlighted in the Pink/Blue. A nice little touch...that I got from pinterest...haha! Working on Pom Pom's. They actually were really really easy to do..I'll post the link for you if you are interested in making some yourself. http://www.thoughtfullysimple.com/how-to-make-tissue-paper-pom-poms/ (In this link there is a there is a full details link toward the bottom of the post...but the pictures were pretty awesome) I bought iron-on letters to make Isaiah a Big Brother T-Shirt for the Party. As well as working on Banners that we can later in the evening use as an announcement picture (holding the banner) Oh Pinterest you are sooo amazing. Our Voting Station. Cast Your Vote. Grab a Moustache or Bow :) Then we counted all the votes...good job Team Boys :) haha The Beautiful Cake made by our Best Friends. It was perfect in every single way...and it turned out exactly the way I pictured it. I hope you enjoyed this post. We had a blast at the Reveal Party.
