2nd appt

Today was my second appt. All of my bloodwork came back normal. The baby's heartbeat was 150. I go back for the Big Ultrasound on Sept 19.

What a great weekend!

My parents came to visit this weekend. It was all about the baby. My Grandma was very good to me and sent up 2 gift baskets filled with clothes and gifts for the baby. Friday night my mom and I went to the outlets and I got my diaper bag.(I think I am keeping it. I keeping having buyers remorse) It is the cutest Kate Spade bag. We also went to the Carter's outlet and I got some neutral newborn clothes and a really cute soothing sounds puppy to attach to the crib. I can't wait to find out what we are having so I can buy pink or blue.

Then Saturday we all went to the Elmwood Arts Festival. After that we stopped at Home Grown Baby to learn about cloth diapers. We've decided we are going use cloth diapers. We bought a diaper and a cover. The only bad thing is the only store in Buffalo is moving 1 hour away. So I have to decide quickly if I want to buy from them or order online.

My parents left today. It was a great visit. Now we have to get ready for our next round of company coming in for the wing festival.

How did I get so lucky?

I would love to know how I got so lucky with finding Norm? He really is the best husband. Last night he bought me a small diaper bag that I found online. Then today he called me and asked"How much money can I spend on you?". A jewelery store is going out of business and he wanted to go and look for me. Then tonight I had a craving for french toast and he made it for me. I am so lucky to have him. Thanks Connie and Norm for raising a great son.

Baby Voldemort

I went today for the 2nd try at the NT scan. Whoopsie is in that weird looking alien/voldemort stage. There is one pic of the baby and it really looks like voldemort from Harry Potter. (I'm not posting it b/c it is so freaky) Everything went well today. The baby wasn't in positioin so the tech gave me a Kool-Aid to drink and then Whoopsie moved. The measurement was 1.2 which is comepletely normal. I got to see both arms and legs moving around today. Also you can see all of the vertebrae. (Anythingthat is white is bone) The heartbeat was 149. I can't wait for the "big ultrasound". That should be in September. I wish I could find out before my birthday but it doesn't look like it's going to happen.

My due date has changed

So yesterday we went for the NT scan. Whoopsie would not cooperate. The tech wasn't able to get a measurement on the back of the neck. So I get to go back for another ultrasound on Tuesday. :) Everything looks good. The heartbeat was 150 and the baby measured 12 weeks 3 days. So my new due date is 2/15/09.

Lions and tigers and bears...Oh my

On Wednesday we went to Wines in the Wild at the Buffalo Zoo with my friend Jessica and her husband Rick. We had a great time. There were so many different restaurants and wines to try. (No wine for me). I can't wait to go again next year.
