Laney Kate

Last Thursday we found out that our new addition to the Crowell family will be a precious baby girl!!!!!!!!!! I went to my 16 week appointment and, although certainty isn't 100%, they didn't see any boy parts. I am ecstatic and although I never really knew either way on the gender, there was always a feeling when I'd go running that it had to be a girl with me. Especially hindsight in the 20 mile race. Weird but it didn't ever feel like the boy would be the runner. And when I talk to myself I ALWAYS call the baby Laney. Those may have been my clues. Laney Kate Crowell will be here this September and I can hardly wait to see her precious hands and itty feet! They did say she was a wiggle worm and really wired during the sonogram. Which makes perfect sense because Matthew and I are pretty energetic people which scares me with this kid!


Matthew and I outside of the doctor's office right after we found out about Laney.....



And I haven't gained any weight since my last appointment and that shocked me b/c areas on my body have definetely changed. But they said with running and being active that is normal and I will definetely put on the lbs later. I am just ready to pop and really show instead of looking pudgy! I just need to try to be patient but hello do they know me?!

Me at 16 weeks.......

"Pudgy"?!?!? Are you kidding? You look aMAZing! Most people would kill to look like that--with no baby in their belly. Well, yay for you guys, with your sweet and strong little girl! :)
