Almost 13 Weeks!

Well, little baby, you've had an exciting time! After we sent out your big "announcement" email, and everyone knows of your impending arrival...we've had a couple of appointments too!

After Labor Day weekend, had an appointment with the regular OB doctor...Mommy got her prescription for Zofran (which helps with the heaves and pukes!) and your heartbeat was all perfect! The next day, we had a trip to the perinatologist's office for your NT scan/ultrasound. You were just hanging out, waving once in a while...not bouncing off the walls like your brother was at his!

All things told, a pretty good week! We've got some exciting things come up too...including a trip to Vegas coming soon!

Well, that's about all for now! One of these times, I swear the pictures will be posted!

10+ Weeks Already???

My, my how the time flies! Just another week until the news of your impending arrival will be thrust upon the world...or at least your grandparents :).

We chose Labor Day because we thought it was funny, and we had chosen another holiday (Christmas) for your brother. We aren't waiting until Christmas for you (hahaha!).

Anyway, you are 10 weeks and 3 days along now, which means you are over a quarter of the way until your due date! I keep adding the caveat that your brother arrived early, so perhaps you will too...we'll see when we get there!

In other news, we also bought Daniel a "big brother" shirt...going to make him another one to break the news with, but figured this one will do too...can't have too many of them. Your uncle Gary is already in the know about you as well, and he seems to be excited to be an uncle again.

With Mommy...well...still sick. She's trying some different things (ginger and stuff) to see if that helps, but every day there's a dry heave (if not more!). This is not the most exciting time, to say the least. But, if things go as they did with your brother, it should be looking up soon!

And I know I'm skipping around here, and this is more news about Daniel than you, but he had his tubes put in his ears on Tuesday...all the better to hear you with when you are born! He did really well with it, so there's nothing to be scared of if you have to get them at some point (which...here's hoping you don't!).

Lastly...doctor's appointments! Your next one is the day after Labor Day (the 7th) and then the NT test ultrasound the next day! We can't wait to get a look at you and see how much you've grown!

Well, that's about all for now!

Magic Week 7!

And what are you doing this week...growing of course! Today you are actually 7 weeks and 1 day along, and the size of a blueberry...or a raspberry, depending on who you ask.

In other news, it's less than a week before we (hopefully!) get a glimpse of you on an ultrasound, which is definitely exciting! Your big brother won't be there, but we'll show him the pictures, and later he can come and see an ultrasound.

As for the puking...well, that hasn't stopped. Now it's just even being at the wrong altitude that can cause your mommy go dry heave and spit up stomach fluid. And tired tired tired she is too!

Anyway, almost time for your brother to get out of the shower! It's so much fun referring to Daniel as your brother now! Sweet dreams!

Let the barfing begin?

I tried long and hard to remember when the morning sickness started with your brother...it seemed like it started later, and with less of a bang, perhaps (building up and then getting worse). This time around, it seemed like the aversions and cravings and twinges of nausea came earlier (even before we knew you were on your way...had nausea right as your grandparents were leaving to go back to Montana!).

In any case, there's only been one real episode of throwing up...and it was on the same night that Stat and Daniel decided to throw up as well.

In other news, you are moving right along...6 weeks and 4 days! That puts you at the size of a sweet pea!

Today is also big news because your daddy turns 35 today! We celebrated by going out to Applebee's. Pretty soon you'll know what it's like to go out with the family (and maybe you can keep your brother occupied and tell him to stop running off!).

As for the TP Tuesdays (turned Wednesday's)...still at 10 sheets and holding! We need to get some pictures going on here soon when you start to grow so we can show everyone that you're on your way!
