Hello all!
It's been so long, and I promise I will explain why. First off, me and the baby are doing incredibly well--far better than any of my doctors expected. I have had Type 1 Diabetes since late February of last year, and its because of this that I automatically have a high risk pregnancy. What that all boils down to is that I have to see a Maternal and Fetal Medicine doctor in addition to my OB. That means TONS of doctor visits, including eye exams and dental visits. The major bonus: I get ultrasounds every time I go to see my specialist.
One of the first photos of our baby girl, Stella Rose.
Yep, we're having a girl! The doctor was able to confirm very early on when she used her extremely powerful equipment to come up right under the baby's bottom. Needless to say, there were no dangly bits. Chris's response: "We're gonna need to get a shotgun."
He seems to think she's going to look exactly like me 
Another reason I've been super busy is that we're weeks away from closing on our first home. I hope you guys find it as charming as we do. I'm sure I'll post many more pictures later on, but here's the view from the street.
The shower is going to be sometime in late July or early August, and my mom is completely flipping out. Stella already has tons of clothes, diapers, toys, etc., and we've decided that she will use the crib that I slept in as an infant. We only had to check that there have been no recalls on it since the late '70's, but a little TLC will make it beautiful again.
I have been taking tons of photos of my growing belly, but here are just a few. The last was taken last week.
At first, I was able to keep on my regular clothes, and I only had to wear my looser jeans kind of underneath my stomach.
Then I started to grow out of my bras. I'm currently a full cup size larger, but I've been told they will get even bigger.
I've taken up trying to play the ukulele, but I'm not very good at it yet. Since we found out Stella can hear us, she's been rocking out to some pretty sweet jams
I guess that's about it for now. I'm attaching the links to our gift registries here, but I gotta say the best gift so far has been this little angel.
The doctor has 4D ultrasound--as any moms here will probably understand, the fact that we get this for free is frakking outstanding!

IT might sound weird, but this is SG... You should do a pregnant set.. I think pregnant women are extremely sexy and I am sure there are many more men just like me.
