What Shall Baby Copeland's Name Be?!

As I am sure everyone knows by now, Keith and I are having a GIRL! We found out at our reveal party and I was completely shocked when I bit into my cupcake and saw pink icing because I just knew that there was going to be blue icing in the middle! The reveal was recorded and when I watched it Keith looked a little disappointed, or so I thought. I asked him about it and he said he looked like that because he was trying not to cry because he was so excited! Cue the AWWWs! I know ladies, he is ALL mine! We are completely thrilled we are having a little girl. Even though I know she is probably going to be a daddy’s girl ;) She is going to be the most spoiled little girl ever because I swear she got more Christmas presents then Keith and I combined this year and she isn’t even here yet!
The last couple of days I have been really feeling her move A LOT! I have been her personal punching bag! She has moved ALL day for the last two days lol. It is funny because every time Keith puts his hands on my belly she starts moving like crazy and kicking right where his hand is, but it’s not hard enough for him to feel it yet. I told him she is trying to tell him that she knows he is there and he will be able to feel her soon!
I know everyone is wondering what her name is going to be and I have been real iffy about announcing her name to everyone because you just never know if someone is going to steal your name or not lol I know that seems probably stupid to think that but trust me it happens! My mom had her name for me stolen by someone she knew who gave birth to their daughter a few weeks before my mom had me so that has really been freaking me out but I am tired of keeping it a secret because I just love it too much so if ANYONE steals it, BEWARE lol because psycho pregnant chick just may be after you ;) We have had this name picked out for a little girl before we even knew we were having a baby. The weird thing is, we both instantly agreed on the first and middle names and for all the women who have kids I am sure you know that, that is something that doesn’t happen to often so we decided then whenever we had a little girl this would be her name. I should have known we were having a girl because the name came so easily and it took us forever to decide on what we would name our baby if it was a boy! So here it goes….
Baby Copeland will be named Hadlee Faith Copeland J
P.S. she will not be nicknamed Hady, just FYI J

Raging Hormones

Ok, so this is me venting for a little while! Read if you want :)

So I am really just wondering is there any symptom I am NOT going to experience during this lovely journey of pregnancy?!?! I am thinking not at this moment. First came the tenderness of my mountains, then the HORRIBLE "all day" sickness (I refuse to call it morning sickness), then the dizziness when standing up and feeling like my head is going to explode, the excruciating headaches, and finally the weird acne growing on my chest and hair growing in places I don't want it to grow! Oh and did I mention I am still psycho?!? I have read in tons of pregnancy books that not every woman experiences all of the symptoms of pregnancy but I guess if you are lucky then you get to experience EVERYTHING. YAY me. Well today I am just sitting in my recliner watching TV and playing on Facebook and all of a sudden my nose starts bleeding. I have NEVER had a nosebleed before and thank goodness Keith was home. At first I was freaked out about my nose bleeding, then it just made me mad thinking about it. I mean really....what else?!?!?! At this point, my raging hormones just need to go ahead and throw everything else at me just to get it over with already!! I think I am now going to get my pregnancy books back out and read what the next symptom is so I can be more prepared next time because I will for sure experience it! Is it May yet?!?! ;) I have a long way to go!!
