Technical Difficulties

I have been having some (major) technical issues with our new blog. I tried to make the whole thing private and restricted to close friends/family. Makes sense, right? Well, it slightly backfired as I started getting e-mails and phone calls about commenting issues (issue being that I had the comments set so only I could comment...oops!). And after I thought I fixed that...well, very few people were able to view the blog consistently SO I am going to try to make the blog a little easier to access. I do not think you will need a password for right now and we shall see how it goes :-) Hope I haven't frustrated anyone too much!

Our next doctor's appointment is next week. It will be my six month and 24 week check up. Hopefully it will just be a routine visit. I'll keep you posted!

Entering the blogging world!

Hello!

Ryan and I have decided to join the bloggers of the world and create our own blog. Our main goal is to keep everyone updated on our growing family (and currently my growing body! See my 20 week picture below) and I am also hoping it will force me to take more pictures :-)



So here is the update on the Janisch family for those of you who haven't heard yet. Ryan and I are expecting our first baby on June 23rd and we are expecting a little girl!!! I have just entered my 22nd week and I am feeling pretty good. First trimester was filled with a lot of sickness, but no fear my appetite is back and stronger than ever!

We had our 2nd ultrasound (we had one at 8 weeks) almost two weeks ago and here are the beautiful pictures from her photoshoot.




We think the profile looks just like Ryan...or any Janisch as they have very prominent bone structure :-) The doctor said from what they could see on the ultrasound that everything looked to be healthy and right on track. He also said she has beautiful hands...we are so proud. Our next ultrasound is scheduled for my 32nd week to make sure everything is still on track.

Besides being busy with drs appointments, ultrasounds, etc....we are a very proud aunt and uncle to our new little nephew Seamus (Shea for short). He was born on February 7 and was 8lb 12 oz and 20 in long. He is adorable and we got to spend time with him, and his mom and dad (sister Cassie and brother-in-law Jamie) in Iowa this weekend. Below are pics of Shea loving his Auntie (see the bib...and yes he was screaming) and being entertained by his uncle Ryan :-)

We will try hard to update often-
