Thank you so much to everyone who participated and left your guesses on Facebook along with the sweetest messages. You all made this exciting time in our lives that much more fun and special to us. Here’s my little video announcing the winner and whether we are having a boy or a girl. Since I was drawing the winner we had to do this in one take and it’s my first video so I’ll just go ahead and apologize now. Looking forward to meeting the winner! And please remember to contact me at least 10 days prior to the session date and the session must take place by April 1 2012. contest It may be easier to watch it on my Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/cristiowenphoto Thanks again!

My thoughts on pregnancy thus far:

• I’m hungry ALL the time. You’d think it would be great to get to eat a lot more, but it’s actually really exhausting. Just when I finish cleaning up the kitchen I’m hungry again and have to start all over. Not to mention the slight embarrassment of having to get back in line (i.e. at Rubio’s) to order just one more taco.
• I’ve had approximately 12 zits my whole life, 8 of them were in the last few months.
• Feeling the baby move is the coolest and strangest feeling ever.
• Watching my husband’s face feeling the baby move is the sweetest feeling ever.
• We are super excited to find out the gender of our baby! So much so that we thought we’d spread the joy by letting you in all the fun…
