Life has been so different and crazy, which I expected I just feel so bad I have not kept everyone updated. So here is the latest with us :)</div><br /><div>Nicolas is now 3 1/2 months old almost and he continues to make us smile and laugh everyday. He has recently found his hands and cant believe how neat they are. He will sit for an hour just moving them in front of his face. He has also figured out that they can go into his mouth, again pretty funny site. He has started talking to us more. His favorite spot in the world is on his changing table. He LOVES LOVES to lay on his changer and he will just smile and laugh for as long as he lays on it. I think we could leave him on it for all day and he would love it. He is now sleeping about 9 hours a night. Its a great thing, they only thing is that he sleeps on his tummy and in the night scoots his little butt all the way to the top of his crib then cant scoot anymore and will wake up crying. So if we could get him to stop night scooting then it would be better :) We got him an exascauser and he is small for it so we prop him up with blankets and he is learning to look at things and follow them with his eyes. It's amazing to see how he grows everyday.</div><br /><div>He is now about 13 1/2 pounds, wearing a size 3 diaper, wearing 0-3 month clothes and size 1 shoes. His hair is staying a light blond and his eyes are becoming a lighter blue everyday just like his daddy's.</div><div> </div><div>Love to everyone!!</div><div>Love,</div><div>Nick, Alisha and Nicolas</div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-27357320166433709982010-03-20T23:02:00.003-05:002010-03-21T17:18:33.662-05:00Nicolas Playing at 7 weeks<p></p><p></p><p>Yep I cant believe it either, 7 weeks since my baby boy was brought into our lifes. Life here in clarksville is crazy. After nicks wreck we had to go out and get a new car, after looking we ended up with a 2010 Maxium ( of course I only looked at cars with 0% intrest! ). Its nice and it has more horsepower then the camary did so that really got nicks attention! When I find a moment I will post some pictures of it. Other then that I am starting to go back to work more, of course taking nicolas with me and all our customers are so excited to see and meet him! I cant tell you what amazing customers we have, at least 4 of our customers actually brought me a baby gift. People keep telling me how great it is I can take nicolas with me to work, I tell them if I didnt cathy and gail would tell me to walk back out the door and go get him! :) Mom will be comming down to visit this week Im so excited. I know she is having some MAJOR nicolas withdrawls! If I miss a day on texting her his daily picture I will get a text from her asking where its at :) All in all things are going great. I am so blessed, Nick is alive and unhurt, nicolas is healthy and happy and I am doing great and loving every moment of this woonderful life God has blessed me with. </p><p></p><p></p>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-28346582958606373672010-03-15T00:26:00.005-05:002010-03-15T01:01:17.444-05:00So Much In Such Little Time<div><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /><div>First off I want to thank GOD for Nick being safe and alive. Last friday morning nick was comming home from PT and a lady on the other side of the highway hydroplaned lost control of her car, came across the 50ft medium spinning around and came into nicks lane on the other side of the higway. He had no where to go and slammed head first into her and spun into the medium grassy area. He thank goodness was not hurt, just sore. She was worse off but ok we believe, we went to the hospital later friday to try and she if she was ok and she had been released. Nick was in our new 2010 camry that we have had for 6 months. We are hoping that they total the car because a crash like that at 70 mph did alot of damage. The car will arrive at the body shop tomm and they will start to estimate it and see what has been done to it. Below are the pictures that nick took friday morning. I have not seen the car yet but will tomm. <div><div>As for everthing else things are great. Nicolas is getting so big so fast. He is starting to try and hold his head up. He is sleeping about 5 hours at night so thats pretty good and he is on a 3-4 hour eating schedule during the day. I am just loving every minute with my wonderful family! I go tuesday for my post partdum visit, I cant believe its been almost 7 weeks :)<br /><br />This is a view from the front, the other lady's car is in the background, she is closer to the side that nick was driving on.<br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5448733401131394914" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 234px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijBgpPX62FfR7Ta1FKpHm7e5y9O-vydOxGOhIUSzec7ji8hX9c4Nnem8MebBVSPym0UIwbJ4mgZJK2JG4GJNBcyBrWMP0Sw-mb6HpOUDNNBoqvDQQKPD3olx_7-sVMAqbLV_SOAZvTEmw/s320/untitled1.bmp" border="0" />This is a view from the drivers side of the car, where the car had the most damage, they had to cut the battery out of the car.</div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5448733404990749666" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 237px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIvVvVS_Wnyks7QUt9_L85M735VV3rEpOiOC0pMPCtaw5Y17_UUncXL5eLcQsoAhnNZRUZIlJO6soOo6VqQGrQkFW_m4H1c81QnFgPd9exg02reRS_RHlB-LJUa-rK3J5kRiiS3AmTS9s/s320/untitled2.bmp" border="0" /></div></div></div></div></div></div><br /><p>This is a view from the passangers side, you can see how big the medium is that she spun across<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5448733414464509106" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 237px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ4iHlAkdaY6yRbRygJudEiUXg2YriZ6zePRXqyO7PjMiTL7QvOrPGAuDILeciwIOOBrqrf3cI7SMTmUKhT0PrahXn0eGwrt2kSWk-iYL1w4PSIg_tWu4GO4yoK4jwTwo2nxR5AiyWbCI/s320/untitled3.bmp" border="0" />Daddy and peanut resting on the couch<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5448733411524872194" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgomYK6FMsjvCuWSPbYkrCvbXLM_V1o1gKilI0zVFWW6XM5DUktof8TwUf0NfWeMu5LtV7pV6ce8-dvS_33Gvs4cftBmjZTYDfEXNFI_qbvcs57GRJffcXOib78I9PLYrMfKyOinwpf1Co/s320/untitled.bmp" border="0" />My baby boys first Mohawk :)<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5448733418777593282" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLBoUIXvAJ6aakRlmCrjmfr2CKWyvstoJhaRfzSWIEfHZd47H9Zxn4yzBDqClpT6mkSfh3PTTPcJu4pAYx2hcLaxemrWFIB-H5zGhl8ZKSkbpTP3-pg-WOwFEffyASAlpB306zkylSBNw/s320/untitled4.bmp" border="0" /></p><p>Being a big boy and trying to hold his own bottle :)<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5448733943602856290" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB6WjHbNI2_pigQLWv78-AF698t_qRYYnjTIjdqvb3JaFwg4RGrdgcIVUjzAIljOx0BRpQz12GyFpxI9A3k3tmelZg1L9etbgZYjmOw4QV3R8C37RxxiqWhJY9eEqZJ33HI-yj0LkfK2I/s320/untitled6.bmp" border="0" /></p>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-77374250829618177372010-02-28T23:01:00.006-06:002010-02-28T23:22:48.235-06:00One Month Old<div><br /><br /><div>I can not believe that my baby boy, yes MY child is one month old today. It's still unreal to me and seems crazy to call him my son. Crazy but the most amazing thing ever. This past month has been pure joy and yes some insane times. Times where Nick and I have been going on no sleep and wondering how in the world we even managed to dress ourselfs that day ( trust me there were days that we just stayed in our pj's all day ). We are trying to learn all the cries of nicolas' but that will take some time! Nick returns to work tomm so our whole schedule will be up in the air now and not sure how this will work but it will somehow. Below is a link to nicolas' newborn picture session for those who have not seen it. Mollie did an amazing job and we cant wait until his 3 month pics! Also take a look at some of his pictures from today. Also tonight is the first time that we are trying to have him sleep in his crib, my anexity is deff up on this one. I mean look at his presious face in this pictures, its so hard to leave that baby alone in a room all on his own :(<br /><br /><div><div><div><div><a onclick="'ft(" href="http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%253A%252F%252Fwww.flickr.com%252Fphotos%252Fmolliecochrane%252Fsets%252F72157623486186126%252F&h=44c8b5ba245f39b24da583ad3fc64366&ref=mf" target="_blank">Nicolas Sneak Peak</a></div><div><br /> </div><div> </div><div><br /> </div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443530221121375810" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ7xgSuzaFhhKIi3bSu72mdaZiG6IWWumdmR6wzyM_FIBD_-HSYuU0KCJpGJ-9oLy60IZ57ZA5rhbmkVm1zN2Zdz19ruGE8pJfPPaZVEP2VhnJyltC29ER7z4UkGM0mu5eZx3pWhWBk7c/s320/036.JPG" border="0" /> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443531326825848498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0TuVd3R1cbxitoEPiufPKg3YmU5a-IDvmpkKHpeIijfTt-Ob9oxVhbW0LzK3LucLoqLxL4PGEBh3fc9LTjUwxIxmghKu6M1Y1hjoeKO1tyLvvvMU6tDb7CkeDEu5WM2_qrFPR3xQS9fc/s320/042.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443531328918440130" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHKmJ04fEl07bw6VT4achuvWEVoL_Cgr4c6tBaK886X4FFMTph5lOjdVnA7Ff7BttBbT29W07fVA37JkexdyxUoM_lSPm4YU3FDWXX0HkYq2BxlJouqqlNRgMynhGrYTHBR955eS8ttxo/s320/043.JPG" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443530236112290098" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZSpAUWc_RtPKza91NWPDvY4IiZsGHpH2WXhGLZxSZE7PKh73xEDJk-i21RuXR2P3NjXoekr8IzzMqWmgAPlgHtxMB4IchtUmo9_Jwz2NnUi0q6p8uBwf62GPVt5iNJbQ7-IEKgvArReY/s320/045.JPG" border="0" /><br /><br /></div><div><br /><br /></div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443530240268474898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEittzkuv_5fChbOTF7Ors7JT_xQQuPam4ESnRhAhh44DWZ9psYuZvwXosSfIf1LtD8CyMrIvdMWeq6qwYfrXs5UhJZD2HfOfJcPLrIF4xzpun6HWEcdN2ed0DAi2fVvb30DVsgR1f3_mzU/s320/046.JPG" border="0" /></div></div></div></div></div></div>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-35704755820378369092010-02-19T23:49:00.002-06:002010-02-19T23:51:48.753-06:003 Weeks OldNicolas is 3 weeks old now and I cant believe it.

These past two weeks have been AMAZING, some of the best of my life. Nicolas is doing great, he had his two week appt today and he is up to 6 lbs and 3 ozs. The doctor said he is growing good, but he is still a little rugrat :) His next appt will be his two month appt. His umbilical fell off today, WHOO HOO! Also nick and I have also both been peed on when changing a diaper, nicks pee on me actually went and hit the wall :) Here are some pictures from his first two weeks of life.<br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437209875276271138" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoAQ0wDWlZiaLnPo0qKyYS4MXmS3PxQk3YHFkd6eJrruSBm2Pr7cMagK7m3d1BaEeCdXO-1mOjmY2e2squ3KI5zdp-Q0jXFYvKya88cb18ZMz8Qu0Yhu-eRWNVb3HOWIq0PCl1URekHuU/s200/18569_294953322538_735257538_3446845_6082665_n.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437209868132547410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQCIIZxr8zvUue5Yn3mySrx7_kXbVNtMj5yPsFAk3mGCQcpFmlrJ-titkOLjDKXi5gHHCONk0iF-L8Tbw8x2K-DNTspRMtRxC2SCh84EHyc2tjdlHrnI1ImMpjAwBI__TZ9tjxJFGe5dA/s200/18569_294923462538_735257538_3446688_1120528_n.jpg" border="0" /><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437209865264156802" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3tEklGxynZdMWVPQR6CiHDD_jkKYora-GBa6wZ9UItVL-zFyTPYHOni3uqdwrRYpwm-_FHT9nV086zSW25JwG22WcK4eYQ93UQ1QBEViv1aGA9Gl_DC9JZ5ZYFc9h9A-QGZE51W2io9Y/s200/Mom's+186.JPG" border="0" /></div></div></div></div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437209858236979266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKATFQdApd3A9d0-abIQVjG-MUlyhXWrASTXNwVaaX3OOuSGbQrp22LO-c30RDgFLyaPXKrFkQtatuFnjFfADnXwTHxB86LYo4uMtzVEkcavyfeGiE61UlEHA_DwUmC8gC-lXoFBLV0IY/s200/Mom's+177.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437209850358728610" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghGVvz5pVK2ETEqu5m1w8lXolUSzHZs8LMR6gGp1OEtAPj8_1LrLWQ56kbPl_ysGDMcXVu0ScJ7-gX3edui5WtS3OOnr8rxL0oZRVD2OSVklNMPP63g6KZRL-QT2q23c1yv8Pr3w0gjvc/s200/Mom's+174.JPG" border="0" />The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-90625754819575721432010-01-31T21:38:00.001-06:002010-01-31T21:38:53.814-06:00Nicolas Christian David Brown's Birth<object name="Slideshow" id="Slideshow" width="425" height="425" align="middle" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"><param name="movie" value="http://www.shutterfly.com/flashapps/flashslideshow/Slideshow.swf" /><param name="flashvars" value="configurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcmd.shutterfly.com%2Fcommands%2Fpictures%2Fgetshareoutslideshowconfig%3Fsite%3Dthebrownfamilyclarksville%26page%3Dthebrownfamilyclarksville%26node%3D290" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed id="Slideshow" width="425" height="425" name="Slideshow" align="middle" quality="high" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashvars="configurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcmd.shutterfly.com%2Fcommands%2Fpictures%2Fgetshareoutslideshowconfig%3Fsite%3Dthebrownfamilyclarksville%26page%3Dthebrownfamilyclarksville%26node%3D290" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" bgcolor="#869ca7" src="http://www.shutterfly.com/flashapps/flashslideshow/Slideshow.swf"></embed></object><p style="width:425px;margin-top:0;text-align:center;"><a href="http://thebrownfamilyclarksville.shutterfly.com/290?eid=115">Click here to view these pictures larger</a><img width="1" height="1" border="0" src="https://os.shutterfly.com/b/ss/sflyshareprod/1/H.15/111?pageName=sharekey&c1=pictures&c2=blogger" /></p>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-90511077253506526182010-01-01T19:15:00.002-06:002010-01-01T19:32:24.953-06:00What A Difference A Year Makes<div>This day a year ago is much different then today. Last year the hopes and dreams that I had carried for so many years are a reality today. I spent last year with my pregnant friend wondering every hour if she was about to go into labor (she was due on Dec 23) and this year I am the pregnant one who is only 5 1/2 weeks from her due date. I never thought that this year it would be me, me the one who couldnt drink the beer last night, or had to take the zofran after dinner so that I didnt get sick :) It's more of a miracle then I ever could have imagined. I am so very very blessed.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Well as of now we are 5 1/2 weeks from D day :) I am so ready for him to be born! The sickness is really getting to me. I cant keep food down, I am sick to my stomach all the time and when I do eat I am lucky if I eat a handful or two of food at a time. I really really just want to go back to normal life where eating is not a challange that I dread so much every day. Also I am starting to have more trouble breathing and a cough comming back after getting off the IV's. I think it is a mixture of pregnancy and asthma b/c taking an inhaler does give me some relief. I just wonder if I can go on for 5 more weeks with my chest feeling like this but one day at a time.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>At our 34 week appt last monday nicolas was weighing in at 5lb 5oz!!!! Also he had turned head down so that is great! That explains all the kicks and punches in the different spots that I feel them now. I am being seen every week from now on and will have a growth ultrasound every week also. Last monday the tech was able to point out that he has hair!! It was so neat to see it waving around on his head. I said with all this sickness he darn better have hair :) Hopefully on monday we will be getting a better set of pictures from a different ultrasound place at the hospital and I can post them for all to see. Well I am heading back to my indent spot on the couch :)</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Love to you all! Below is a picture of the best christmas present that Nick and I ever recieved....</div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421949216149950418" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLgtnqg7I1PsQ2lqz9AHSWWFTqNDp9oSneut30LF6HT7IHw7EYS_RNS3B9AWMcdkwSj-ljCDc0syOjlmVE1hxbGKb9KqYavGB9HZTvYzOu7AoQ6rqnBoDE8SAgtD5fZGbqil4QbIr1nE8/s320/Xmas+Eve+005.JPG" border="0" /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-13296033195735287442009-12-09T21:45:00.005-06:002009-12-09T22:16:24.579-06:0031 Weeks Down...9 Weeks To GoWell I am offically at 31 weeks now and really just still in shock that I have made it this far. Yesterday we had our OB appt and everything is looking great! Nicolas is weighing in at 3lb 13oz. He gained 1lb 3oz in 3 weeks, I was shocked at what a fattie he is I guess with my Cf I wasnt expecting him to grow so well. He grew 1lb 4 oz from weeks 24-28 (4 weeks) and 1lb 3 oz from weeks 28-31 (3 weeks) so he is gaining some good weight. They said everything looks normal and good he is in the 48th percentile tile and that is normal. So our next appt is in 3 weeks and that will be 34 weeks, they told us that after 34 weeks if I go into labor they will not try to stop it and let it progress naturally. HOLY CRUD thats 3 weeks!!! <div><div><div><br /> </div><div><div><div><div><div><div>Today I had a CF visit and I just got off 3 weeks of IV's. My last PFT FEV1 was at 83% and I went on Iv's so that I can get as pumped up as I can for the delivery. Today my FEV1 was 96% so I was super excited and shocked that it jumped so much. So I guess it was CF playing a factor and the pregnacy is treating me good.<br /></div><div>Just 9 more weeks to go AHHHHHHHHHH................... Is it Feb 9th yet?<br /></div><div>Here are some pictures of Nicolas from yesterday :) And then a picture from me on thanksgiving at 29 weeks, and tonight at 31 weeks :)</div><br /><div>Love to you all!</div><div>Alisha, Nick and Nicolas</div><div><br /> </div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413453570699322450" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 198px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEoBqKM958eOocctdpUu18h3Gl8Ygq0hCcWhNEIkby4181rgGZENe6mYYiCqaZT8n7wn_UIVeFZCHtbv01-S8VrmrXBLd0x9bSD1Od3FtJ-nPmpN-gTcOYHz0VdeaW7HiAq2rxvDAqPks/s320/Scan.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413453575183154546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 242px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhssPUPrtIjYrlQRnAk26L8shz7sjDyJ5taY42bNlacYJbN0ppIfvEQ3X5wDmrKUr-RGv4BBaEkvRCHlkegbfChyFWKXR7dsHL2IPVnTJOTGdyiv3pTWHEU-PJBTSt8ez_BcbUdid6-Y9c/s320/Scan1.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413453582483484322" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 228px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJ61Kd1G_MXNOrO49LGOWF-2V098P7KeAOa4UgFdZJ7itr2fJ7Dl_tLbCpGcFi_YKSL8LeJ9g9mJN_p_veiW5FhQ4qM4govprdF8yiCXC88jS09Wzwg91K8ToJBIEXHmxEKa3lr6Bm2yo/s320/Scan4.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413453585306220306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 242px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirOs7BRtjwMpvzUZZ-5BRVmfHtt3rMuEZveAcU0l_wtvDLX6S9LaEK5BJsHNdjbE4EIDkKdvu8qB1xGYKvcXFZrKqchNzPBXtT1T6SxqLIeouC-L3pUOkjn2Ig2Yh6pPeoVsLzi_6a86I/s320/Scan5.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413453578968554818" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 241px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCS4Fc_pT1_-b_4PfqRTm-32w40rj6-NCeGn7_FgxF6eB_L55k1jqirHUvMadLwjwwM398In2vpiwa6wf7pk2gm3K6eSYSFXRTi8gdmUKBiFVWf49ODgSvnBLvaZRpHmmER8AgVDISYfk/s320/Scan2.jpg" border="0" /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413454552339419618" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg981cUNUB9pHRlRqzP2oIZOEvXL5bFDzuTZC7rxsscUsaZFrMDl4SXZ-0bAT3rFm82TUcRibIpeR1c4SUDrTkUzUnaCF6jUyzu9fbV4DsFi18Vi2x_z5FhfWGmCu9tEoix3tOZuKPCo5Y/s320/Scan9.jpg" border="0" /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413454545786035522" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 244px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDzjEzBnsg4iDuJQDaGQJRvVL0VSREQFtYPR3YFRCr2Jglc6BBecudV16TnLqxJq3Zwx7xiVsXeDJP0fSmkr0J07WtbaDSbpeLvU-lpQu1Sg4bMOfrjXM98qwut2ZE4kZzMkkV4iXIPYo/s320/Scan8.jpg" border="0" /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413454540366120802" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTRFDYlXDtGJ3tl7fPTepWPTgTs7oy9BjLqloY0c4jEFlw8HPKMyF2SzXU7rG6fzey_BsR6txyhMyXCONLMpbwbQbb0oTIzlbcJjK4vX1r6tZVm3cv-XcwMHHjdid4W26BkaJvhKYW8Uk/s320/Scan6.jpg" border="0" /></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413456176554580146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvgKfvFRK5LyUHMIU4wOPvbRPkwWCN_D-pNoBujWywvL4JrBU_PDYmKZW524HU4xtNhr3ASeugexwYJUth2CQFaJIi14gp51u4lL8ie4xUTt38EN4A6Bo43isSDkJ6Ikm89dbH74i3hY0/s320/024.JPG" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413456179743508834" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 241px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEfPanlsm_PHHk1FfrpD5TOhciS4NNjFvAITCfb_BqVaTjRmB9KVo7oGftFbKGQkxp2Uvgu48wVe-tVBFoXi0mVmerySwVtMc5l6OtoMzTx25zlByujxXOXfdfiztbhxPYUmwVSEMobIg/s320/004.JPG" border="0" /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-26540970972305120812009-11-19T21:37:00.002-06:002009-11-19T21:59:33.624-06:00Third Trimester :)Holy Cow look where we are at...... Third Trimester<br /><br />As of tuesday we entered week 28 and also our thrid trimester. It is starting to become more real everyday. I am starting to have more pregnancy side effects. One big one is the swelling in my feet and legs. My ankles will get as big as softballs. The swelling will go down some but only when I lay on the couch with my feet above my head for hours. So pretty much if I am not working then I am on the couch with my feet up for the rest of the hours of the day. I have a feeling that is how I will be spending the next 12 weeks. My blood pressure is not high so they are not worried about the swelling at this point but needless to say I am wearing my slippers at work because by th end of 2 hours of working I cant fit into my shoes :) My stomach issues have gotten better so I am very thankfull for that, the morning sickness is still around. I am deff starting to feel like a stuffed turkey.<br /><br />We had an ob appt on monday and nicolas is looking great! He is weighing in now at 2 pounds 10 oz ( of course there is like a 6oz possible up or down ). So in 4 weeks he gained abou 14 oz which is awesome! As for me I gained a whopping 8 pounds! So I am up to about 12 pounds for the pregnancy :) Needless to say I think the whole 8 pounds is in my belly and the water in my legs and feet :)<br /><br />I know I have been a bad bad blogger but I will post a picture of my growing belly soon and I will see if I can scan one of the latest pictures of nicolas :)<br /><br />Make sure to also read the the post below I am not sure if the update for it got sent out.<br /><br />Love to all,<br />Alisha, Nick and NicolasThe Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-64783346297742886972009-11-10T21:45:00.004-06:002009-11-10T21:53:13.980-06:0027 Weeks<div>27 Weeks Today!!!!!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I cant say that I ever thought I would be pregnant but when it happened I never could of imagined making it this far. It all is becoming a reality now and a bit overwhelming at times. This is real and I am going to be a mom, it a feeling I can not explain. The past couple of weeks have been hard in many ways. Pregnancy has given me some new issues and some old ones like morning sickness have stuck around still and even come back with a little vengeance. My feet have begun the swelling process. I can not wear a lot of shoes and have to wear socks with no elastic and every night I fall asleep on the couch with my feet propped up on a pillow. So when I wake up and can actually see my ankles it makes me smile :)</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I have noticed that I am starting to become tired again, seeing as I am in the last week of my 2nd trimester that is to be expected. I will go to the OB next monday for our next appt and I cant wait to see how much nicolas has grown.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Nicolas did dress up for halloween this year :) Just take a look.............</div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5402688862248107602" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxdJcJhzwBc_bqLbHatdSCb31MdDSPCMwapTldt7KTb8mScKRQnsLaR4fJSJ97x5UJNyW83Yg5vZJTzpWwbjGY2I0jCpxt2aXO8qRze9tvFwtFCAW2x8SOhPVrRvpwtKR31tpN_VAzab8/s320/022.JPG" border="0" /><br /><div></div>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-17498026059667242432009-10-04T17:05:00.003-05:002009-10-04T17:15:22.764-05:0021 Weeks<div>I know, I know, Im bad! Its been forever since an update it jsut seems latley that if it isnt laying on the couch Im not up to doing it. I have been very tired latley but thats ok with me. I still am having morning sickness. I am back to taking my sickness meds 2 times a day, and still getting sick on some days so I have a feeling it will stick with me until he is born. Nick is back home now and its so wonderful to have daddy home! We have picked out the paint color for little mans room, it is a beautiful blue called carribean coast. Nick installed a fan in little mans room last night so thats exciting, we are on the way to making it offically his room.

So I am super happy! I have been tired alot lately and going to bed around 9 and then not sleeping well thru the night. I feel bad because I havent been able to spend alot of time with nick, it seems like once he or I get home from work, its eat and then sleep. I am working 2 days a week and every other sat and its really nice to have something out of the house to keep my mind off another day of indigestion and growing pains.

As most of you know last wed morning I woke up at 3:30 in the morning coughing up blood. It was about a full cup of blood which was the most I have ever coughed up. I knew that being on my blood thinner was not helping the situation so I was worried. I woke up nick and asked him to call 911. By the time they got here I had settled down and was not coughing up stright blood anymore but still a mixture. They took me by ambulance to the local hospital where they did test and then talked to my doctors and decided to send me to vandy in nashville which is where my doctors are at. They transported me by ambulance to vandy. My first time ever in an ambulace and 2 rides in one day! So I spent 2 1/2 days in the hospital so they could make sure that there was no more blood. Since then my chest has been really tight. They extended my IV's and extra week so hopefully that will get down to the infection that is down in my chest. </div><br /><div>Well friday is ultrasound day :) As long as little bug coroperates we will find out if we are having a daughter or a son and if you can be around a computer at 11:30 central / 12:30 eastern you can find out live with us! Yep we are having the ultrasound streamed live so that everyone can sign onto the computer and watch live as the ultrasound is being done! Below is the info on where to go and how to sign on. Now I would suggest that you try to sign on before friday and make sure that you can get to the page. When you get to the page a windows media player ( your computer must have windows media player ) box will appear in the middle of the screen. Now on friday I am not sure if it will just start to play at the time 11:30 / 12:30 (depending on where you live) or if you will need to press the play button. My suggestion is at the start time if it does not seem to start playing on its own every minute or so I would press the play button.</div><br /><br /><div>To get to the place go to <a href="http://www.4dpeek.com/">http://www.4dpeek.com/</a></div><br /><div>Scroll down the page until you are under the map and see Clarksville, TN and click on that,</div><br /><div>Up in the right corner you will see the middle option is LIVE Log-In click on that and a sign in box will pop up, then enter this in the spaces</div><br /><div>username: family</div><div>password: child</div><div> </div><div>TA DA!!! You should be at the page :)</div><br /><div>If anyone has any problems getting there just let me know and I will get back with you :)</div><br /><br /><div>Well thats alot for tonight so thats all my posting, below are some updated pictures :) Me at 14 weeks and the puppies at 2 weeks :)</div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8OsRgMxJ4riJd9FN4ajuVSdykoO-CkFzSjrpYo146XFSYZZkC6gBdkv7SXUygLBbRuxiXC3N6PFwIiYAXfXh6jwrHOGtRXCe0Uit9jdyETjO7kRO0aSz_FOYOHEyPLY5VKNj05U-02nc/s1600-h/012.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371128286866110674" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 241px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8OsRgMxJ4riJd9FN4ajuVSdykoO-CkFzSjrpYo146XFSYZZkC6gBdkv7SXUygLBbRuxiXC3N6PFwIiYAXfXh6jwrHOGtRXCe0Uit9jdyETjO7kRO0aSz_FOYOHEyPLY5VKNj05U-02nc/s320/012.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div> </div><div><br /> </div><div></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWVXbZ7vQdx16_UhlVveB_Dtfwrj0By2ePwkccljlj9UvEet0y_bSYqNRzGVZcWTZNFh2KMTRmSWEY-s02duQHyu9ubE_5Vy2kJp7q6zySoLPqfWPICF3aXhveWlct4tA29wOBIp8PcyI/s1600-h/013.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371128651512439250" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 241px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWVXbZ7vQdx16_UhlVveB_Dtfwrj0By2ePwkccljlj9UvEet0y_bSYqNRzGVZcWTZNFh2KMTRmSWEY-s02duQHyu9ubE_5Vy2kJp7q6zySoLPqfWPICF3aXhveWlct4tA29wOBIp8PcyI/s320/013.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia9XNErsJKMiPynGGa1Wb_VZcm3uHZiikY1b7Yvw4NREP1Ee4hbWbXYQtPrSq9nPOeGuOHcw5fiMV1k4oVPFDZRwRO-xVhInsB1bC_goKo7YySUWkT6rDZJJX03JB37s_Ih4r8WYeemmI/s1600-h/003.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371128928839110786" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 241px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia9XNErsJKMiPynGGa1Wb_VZcm3uHZiikY1b7Yvw4NREP1Ee4hbWbXYQtPrSq9nPOeGuOHcw5fiMV1k4oVPFDZRwRO-xVhInsB1bC_goKo7YySUWkT6rDZJJX03JB37s_Ih4r8WYeemmI/s320/003.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAVtco0c87YC7AL7wljCGCdLdyVVNxAzOUz1E9NLnMnkt6dhJeddVMEuoL_MM80J8SC9UkbAX0ErzZQugcRDBuo3Vqq91QDGO2ulX-dDNA6mMsdJKv_fd3fqTrxvvt_J8tRt9VspVOhAI/s1600-h/011.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371129323934595394" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 241px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAVtco0c87YC7AL7wljCGCdLdyVVNxAzOUz1E9NLnMnkt6dhJeddVMEuoL_MM80J8SC9UkbAX0ErzZQugcRDBuo3Vqq91QDGO2ulX-dDNA6mMsdJKv_fd3fqTrxvvt_J8tRt9VspVOhAI/s320/011.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div></div></div></div>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-78738588701683583692009-08-02T16:30:00.008-05:002009-08-02T17:00:28.177-05:00WE HAVE PUPPIES!!!!!<div><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><div>Well one girl in our house has delivered and its not me :) Yesterday Jayden had her puppies :) We are blessed with 6 yes count them 6 puppies, three boys and three girls.

We already have a dresser and night stand in expresso that we had bought for the adopted child. So we didnt really see the need to buy another one. So we looked at some and found one that I liked ( as nick says there all wood to me ) and he thought looked nice so we went to the baby store to look at the changing table for the set and was not that impressed. Nick mentioned that he would really like to have an all wood crib since this will be our childs bed for years to come. So we came home and looked some more and found a set that has a solid wood crib. So here it is........................</div><br /><br /><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361859907259718258" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 250px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 250px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-9d4WFnHJlbnRc1VYvGAVJJ0ayBQi6g5zx8anSS6vUFTbbUBDuB73Vz_WTu2rsVBaf9tqnuAMdaLj5bTBWpRncCfldOSXrfWJnKMGxB4zFcAxIvIRiQjBGTZp1hj8IlFahVBic-g3ITE/s400/196771-SM2.jpg" border="0" /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361860040302202850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 250px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 250px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd6EGgzVWC7p4_dGhXljkWphMbd4xqaIAazOz_VGXYncXISecn61Hkso7YoJ5GM-_sjOsXhDe7HXcnM9bEzvbIKLMyfAoiG49M3vxE6u55bxdvN-pv8MEAySVc9pYlCTvQyLUr1-XGRAU/s400/196690-SM2.jpg" border="0" /><br /><div></div></div>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-26688155672858933272009-07-12T23:30:00.003-05:002009-07-12T23:41:07.068-05:00Better late then neverIts been about 2 and a half weeks since the latest update. Things around here have been very busy. We went on our family vacation with my family to FL weeks ago. It was a great time even thou I spent my time "tossing my cookies" and sleeping on the couch most of the time. We had a really good time! Getting back home and back into the routine was alot on both of us.<br /><br />For about 3 and a half weeks now I have been visted by what I call all day sickness. Morning, noon and night time does not matter to my stomach. The docs put me on zofran and phenegren to help stop it but even on that I am still getting sick. So hopefully by week 13 it should settle down.<br /><br />On July 6th we had our first OB appt, which was big because we graduated from the RE to the OB. Our ultrasound meausred out at 8 weeks 3 days putting our due date as feb 12, 2009. They said the ultrasound looked good and little bugs heartbeat was measured at 180 bpm. We will go back on Aug 4th for our next appt and ultrasound.<br /><br />I have been browsing nursery furniture just to get some ideas and try and find something differnt then every single person I know has. I found a set that I really like at jcpenny and nick says he likes too, but you all know men, its all the same to them :) So I am deff keeping that set in mind! It's a little bit more then we were hoping for but like I have told nick all along. I really am not holding back on little bug, never in my wildest dreams did I think that the dream I had as a little girl to be a mom would come true. I am only able to do this once and I want to make it as special as it can be, so what if the furniture is like $400 more then I was expecting, we are never going to be able to do this miracle journey again in our life.<br /><br />We have added a guessing poll to the right side of the page, go ahead and play our game and give us your guess of what you think little bug will be....boy or girl :)<br /><br />I will update with some new 9 week pictures this week soon<br /><br />Love to you all!The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-28413837085749942302009-06-21T11:39:00.003-05:002009-06-21T11:47:06.941-05:00Week 6<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd_9xcRJ_M1vYW_YxJlfSGQPK7S8BPN_mKNBEBhNfZU3iPrpxeKeqqbISYfdGe2yJt32_cECqagDxk2Z-M0QXZs5w2-466i_haOqbYNhEHkYI3-M_cWq03Cc7BBghO1JCrJMJMkCstOtE/s1600-h/013.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349822780745959346" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 301px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd_9xcRJ_M1vYW_YxJlfSGQPK7S8BPN_mKNBEBhNfZU3iPrpxeKeqqbISYfdGe2yJt32_cECqagDxk2Z-M0QXZs5w2-466i_haOqbYNhEHkYI3-M_cWq03Cc7BBghO1JCrJMJMkCstOtE/s400/013.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div><br /><div> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvE5Xi4U5L9q4j6z6UsYOfVuZjML165Ha6m2nAEtMthrumJRLVFO9saDly04LEpUnYiBRWi_bCMVPwFQ0t3Atnf8N0FD2Efma-s6hWER-1SiarirUezTxmYu9hO71UdkgWD3O-L0wt4As/s1600-h/012.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349822485569601874" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 301px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvE5Xi4U5L9q4j6z6UsYOfVuZjML165Ha6m2nAEtMthrumJRLVFO9saDly04LEpUnYiBRWi_bCMVPwFQ0t3Atnf8N0FD2Efma-s6hWER-1SiarirUezTxmYu9hO71UdkgWD3O-L0wt4As/s400/012.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div><em><strong>How far along:</strong></em> 6 weeks</div><div> </div><div><strong><em>Best moment this week:</em></strong> Seeing Bug's heartbeat</div><div> </div><div><em><strong>Movement:</strong></em> I'm sure there is but nothing I can feel yet</div><div> </div><div><em><strong>Milestones:</strong></em> Morning Sickness is here!

As of day we are around 6 weeks and 3 days so 2 months pregnant. We had our 2nd offical ultrasound today to confirm that everything was going good before we told the public. Today the ultrasound looked great they saw the fetal pole, the yolk sac and we even saw the heartbeat, I swear it was the most amazing sight I have ever seen. The heartbeat measured at 113 which the ultrasound lady said was a good rate and our little bug measures at 3.2mm :) Other then being very tired I am starting to have some nausea during the whole day starting 2 days ago. Being able to wear the Seaband bracelets for nausea has helped alot!! Hopefully little bug will let mommys tummy keep her food down! :)</span></strong></div>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-28538827259542449862009-05-21T22:36:00.002-05:002009-05-21T22:44:52.961-05:00Lots of UpdatesWell lots have gone on latley that we need to catch up everyone on. <br /><br />Tuesday we had our IUI. Everything went good with it. Nick's sample came back ok, his motility is on the low side of normal. We had a differnt girl do the IUI and I had an extreme amount of cramping and even some sharp pain during the IUI and some strong cramping all day tue and wed. I told nick I think she put the catherder futher up this time then before. I think she hit a fallopian tube :) So now we are on the 2ww. With 3 eggs hopefully one was able to be "our miracle". Today my cramping slowed down but Im feeing bloated. I am still having hot flashes due to the meds and Cathy ( my boss and great friend ) keeps laughing at me when I have to grab a stack of paper and fan myself down :)<br /><br />Yesterday I also had my CF appt. My FEV1 was at 90% WHOOO HOOOO. That is what it was last time and I am so excited. It started out at 85% and I was able to get it up to 90% with the tech teaching me a little bit different of a way to blow during the test. So that was great, espically with the whole TTC thing going on. I need the best numbers I can get.<br /><br />Well thats about it with us right now. Tomm morning I go to the accupunture doc for the first time. CF girls and girls dealing with infertility both swaer by it. It is suposed to help open up blood vessels and allow more blood to flow to your areas. So for the CF it is supposed to help open up the airways and for the infetility it is supposed to increase blood flow to the uterus which helps implantation. So I will let you all know how that goes!!<br /><br />Love to you all!!<br />Alisha and NickThe Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-20852290656774038362009-05-18T21:16:00.002-05:002009-05-18T21:21:24.110-05:00Just Call Me....JUST CALL ME THE EASTER BUNNY BECAUSE I HAVE THE EGGS :) <br /><br />I went for my ultrasound this morning and the clomid did its job. I have not 1, not 2 but 3 YES 3 large eggs. On the right side I have a 23 and 21 mm egg and on the left side I have a 20mm egg. They want you to have over 18mm to be considered a good egg that will release. SO with 3 that gives us a bigger target to hit, also means a chance for multiples. So I received my trigger shot at 9:45 this morning and will go in tomm at 2:30 for my IUI. I am having alot of cramping tonight, wondering if I am ovulating. You have to remember that we are doing this 2 days latter then last time so I am more closer to when I would naturally oulate. So who knows but heres to hoping :)The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169162112786550199.post-68483497916857677682009-05-12T22:51:00.002-05:002009-05-12T22:55:25.083-05:00I Would Die For ThatGO TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE AND PAUSE THE MUSIC BEFORE YOU START THIS VIDEO<br /><br /><br /><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JqfGqOx2iDQ&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0xcc2550&color2=0xe87a9f"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JqfGqOx2iDQ&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0xcc2550&color2=0xe87a9f" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>The Brownshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03209368145677671786noreply@blogger.com3
