My baby Girl!!!

We went to the doctor on oahu on Wed. and got to see our little baby! He said she is a girl...and a very active one at that!!! When he was moving the ultrasound wand on my belly, she punched it! It was so crazy because I saw her punch it AND I felt it! He said she is 11 oz. and looks very healthy. Apparently she was the prettiest baby he saw all day....who cares if she was the first one he saw! haha.

We are sooooo excited! I love boys, but I really wanted a little girl. We went directly to the mall and I got her two dresses. I just couldn't help myself. Girls run sparse in our families. On my Dad's side there are 11 grandchildren, I am the only girl. Michael's Mom has three boys and one grandson, no girls. There are plenty of girls on my Mom's side, but virtually none on the other two sides. Our little girl will be named Isla Makanalani Cerf. I can't wait to meet her!

Hope you all are well!

Dancing with the Baby?

So this is what four months looks like. Unfortunately i had just worked out when we FINALLY remembered we needed to take a pic...so clearly not a great photo... but you get the point! now there is a tummy!

Now to the big news! I was watching Dancing with the Stars season finally and laying in bed last night. Out of no where i felt this jolt in my tummy.... then another and another. I had michael feel and he couldnt believe it! i think the baby was having a house party in my tummy, dancing away! a little odd considering that was the first real movement i've felt. we were very excited and decided he/she must like the music and will surely be a dancer.

oh yeah...i updated the halloween blog with a pic. finally we found the charger! yeah!

4 Month Visit

So yesterday I went to my four month check up. My friend Liz went with me. The doctor found the baby's heartbeat immediately and it was nice and strong. It was such a comfort to hear that heart beat. She said I'm just the right size and that things should be on the right track now. I go to Oahu (a different island) on Nov. 22 to get a level 2 ultrasound with a specialist. We will find out the sex that day too!!! I'm going to have Michael take a picture of the belly soon to post. That's it for now!

Halloween and the name game

So I've been very bad and have not updated in awhile. we had a great halloween with many parties. i have pictures.....however, i seem to have misplaced the battery and charger for my camera:) i'm blaming it on pregnant brain haha. once i find it or replace it, i will post pix of us at Halloween. Jaggar went as the grim reaper, i was a witch (original i know), michael was clark kent/superman.
On to the baby stuff! so far things are going better! i have my next appt. on tuesday and will fill you in then too. i'm starting to show a little now! i will post pix, but....again...the camera thing:) we have decided on a boy and girl name. for now we are pretty set on these names, but we do still have a ways to go til the big day. i will put the hawaiian meanings and pronunciations in ( ).
boy: Kai (rhymes with tie) (ocean) Orion (oh-ryan) Cerf
girl: Isla (eye-luh) Makanalani (gift from heaven) Cerf

yes..they are different....but honestly, what did you expect:) i was very attatched to the name Hazel for a girl, but received so much flack for it that it got pulled. (i still like it MOM!!!!) haha.
over and out for now! ALOHA!!!
