Houston, We're Having A Baby

Yesterday we saw the baby. He or she was moving around a lot and stretched out in there. Making himself/herself comfy it appeared. Only one baby has taken up residency, so everyone can stop asking if there are twins. I just get big.

We also heard the heartbeat. Strong and fast. The kids got to see the baby and hear the heart as well. Emma thought it was awesome, Davis did not care. I think that is how they both feel about the baby as well.

Since we took both of the kids, we realized we will not do that again. After the appointment and wrestling the kids, Mark looked at me after seeing this baby move so much and said, "Great. We are having another hyperactive child just like you."

I figure we are even. The odds are in his favor that this kid will look just like him.

Glad to hear that all is going as it should. Only one? Was hoping for a two-fer...oh well, maybe next time. ; ) So, next ultra sound do we get the sealed envelope so that Kiki can do some gender specific shopping in advance? Very cool that both of the kids went with you to the doctor. Take care. Love you guys, Kiki

Yea!

There is nothing as amazing as the first time you hear a baby's heartbeat, even if it's the third baby. I imagine if we ever have another, it will be the same too.

So glad to hear things are goign well.

It freaks me out to see the baby. It is weird to think that a whole human is growing in there and it weirds me out for a few days. I do not think I am normal.

Do not think you are going to get advance notice. Had there been two, I might have been able to swing it. You can wait unitl November, can't you? (;

Well, I was hoping to get some notice. Sure would make shopping easier and shopping dollars go a lot further. How much more yellow and green do you want? Would be nice to have a bag of clothes all ready for the baby instead of going out while you are in the hospital...

And Just Like That.....

I made the fatal mistake of reading reviews and articles before watching a single episode of the show.  I knew full well I would watch every episode regardless.  I read anyway.  Spoilers? Not bothered.   Let me give some back story here.   At 17/18 my dream had been to go to a big city (Chicago was my thinking at the time), get my degree in journalism/editing/publishing and go work at a big time magazine.  Keep in mind we are talking about the mid 90's here so the idea that magazines would cease to be relevant was not even on my radar.  I had been editor of my high school yearbook and unbeknownst to me at the time, we were actually doing the yearbook by coding and would get printouts hoping we had coded copy correctly.  I just typed the copy I was supposed to type with the weird little codes that had been given to me on a piece of paper.  I would later discover this was actually HTML code we were doing.  Who knew?  This fu...

Why Choose It?

Judy posted a comment about being jealous at two weekends away from the kids. About how she figured it would be a long time before she got that chance. I have to admit, I thought better her than me to have the new baby. After our two weekends away and Mark joking that it was his ploy to convince me to not have anymore, I have to say.....I think it worked. After thinking about it and being able to get away so easily because the kids are bigger, I could not help but think, why go back and do it all again? If you had a choice between going out of town for the weekend or being stuck, tied down to a newborn who was feeding from your breasts every two hours and waking every three ,which would you choose? To which one might say why ever have kids at all.....fine. I have TWO. I have done it TWICE. Not only that, but for anyone who cares about it, I have one of each. One is almost seven, the other almost three. Granted Davis is not potty trained yet, but he does change his own diaper sometimes...
