It's a Boy

Hey everyone. We found out Monday that we are having a BOY!!!! We are so excited. We have chosen the name Wyatt Augustus. Maddie calls him "Baby Wydatt." So cute!!! Anyway, now we are picking fabrics and choosing a theme. Well actually...Nick is picking the theme...I'm sure so that I don't get too "girly". The due date is still he same...nov.2nd. Little Wyatt weighs 14oz. right now.

It's been a while

Hey everyone. It has been a while since I have updated on our family. Things here are just peachy. Maddie and I are enjoying all of this time together and she is becoming a little momma's girl. We have spent the last week in Dallas with my parents and brother (he is on leave from Iraq) We had a lot of fun. Here are some pictures from our trip.

We went swimming, went to the zoo, played outside and drove to east texas to see my grandfather. A very busy week and we are both worn out.

I am now 20 weeks along in my pregnancy. Nick and I are going to the doctor next monday to see what the sex of the baby is. So check back and I will update everyone.

Take care!!

15 weeks....

Hey everyone. I went to see Dr. Tadvick this morning. Before I went, I had every intention of asking for a sonogram. With Jame coming home next week...I wanted to be able to tell him what we were having. However, the nurse could not find the baby's heartbeat and so Dr.Tadvick did a sonogram to look at the heartbeat.....no worries....it is normal not to detect the heartbeat at this stage. Our baby has grown so much over the past few weeks. It is now 8in long. I saw the baby sucking its thumb and patting its head with its hand. It also turned and looked right at me. Amazing!! I did see the heartbeat and it was strong. Dr. Tadvick then went down to the feet but everything was so blury that he couldn't tell the sex. Darn!!! Looks like I will have to wait 5 more weeks to find out. Anyway I wanted to share this with all of you. We hope you all are doing GREAT!!!

Oh and the first picture is just a profile. The head is at the right. The bottom picture shows the baby's arm going to its mouth.

Little Miss Priss

Hey everyone. Isn't this picture just too funny. Maddie always pretends she is on the phone. She says, "Hello." ---and she sounds just like a valley girl.

We got some good news yesterday. My brother, Jame, will be coming home for two weeks on May 20th. We are so excited...I swear it feels like he has been gone longer than 2 months. After this visit he for sure will not be able to come home until next February or March.

We just celebrated Nick's 27th birthday. He worked the whole day and then had to go take a final...some birthday huh?? We did manage to eat dinner together. Oh and Maddie and I worked all afternoon to learn the Happy Birthday song...and she did. She sang..."Happy Birtday you....Happy Birtday you...Birtday daddy...Birtday you." It was so cute and I think Nick even teared up a little.

Well I hope you all are doing well. Talk to you soon.

Sping has Sprung

Hey everyone. Things have been pretty busy around the McMillon house. Nick is trying to finish up this semester at McMurry. I have had meetings and paperwork that take up most of my time. And little Miss Maddie is now 1 1/2 years old. So hard to believe. Yesterday day she said, "Mommy ,where is Stawberry." I said, " I don't know Maddie, where is strawberry?" She said, "Stawberry at home." A little bit later she yelled out, "Stawberry, where are you?....Come here." Maddie has found a new friend in Strawberry Shortcake and loves to watch her movies, look at her pictures and sing her songs. It is just precious.
Here are some pictures that we took a few days ago. We could not get her to look at the camera. She just wanted to pick the bluebonnets. SHHHH...don't tell...we know it is against the law but we had so much fun watching her play. Maddie loves being outside and really pitched a fit when I told her we had to go. The pool opens in a couple of weeks....can't wait for that adventure!!!

Second Sono and some other things...

(The baby's head is down)

Hey everyone. I went for my second sonogram this morning. As you can tell...the baby is much bigger now. My due date is November 2. (and for those of you wondering, maddie was due nov.3rd) Dr. Tadvick said everything looks really good. I will go back in 4 weeks to hear the heartbeat. I will also go on June 18th to Dr. Mayberry to find out the sex of the baby.

In other news...Maddie is sick. She has an ear infection and a throat infection. I am home with her today. I think she will be well enough to go back to daycare tomorrow.

Also, my mom called last night. My brother's friend, Dale(he is in Jame's Unit),called hismom and said they were doing fine. It was good to hear they were safe and doing good.

That is all for now. Hope you have a Wonderful Day!!!
