I saw her today

I am so super exhausted and I have the boys tomorrow, so I'll make this a quick one. I had the sonogram today. The last one until I see her sweet face in person. The specialist said she is measuring big, 2 1/2 pounds and nearly 13 inches. That won't make my Dr. happy. I have to dupe her into thinking the baby is little. It does alleviate my question of how she was growing though, since I've gained so little this pregnancy. My nausea is back, I think it's front heartburn now- sigh. Ivan didn't take a nap and wouldn't let me have one either, even though I tried. Got laundry nearly finished and made a couple of lasagna's so that we could run off to artwalk where Brian played tonight. It would have been nice to get out if the kids hadn't been totally horrible! They were not listening at all. So the best part of the day was by far seeing number 3. Plus my dear friend Tighe kept Ivan and Dominique for the hour I was gone and I got to visit with her some when I went to pick them back up, that was nice. The baby looks so cute, even in a sonogram. I saw one hand with long fingers and her foot looks bigger than last time with long toes. Her heartbeat was 160bpm. I think she was sleeping most the time. She moved a couple of times as the specialist waved his wand over my tummy, but mostly she was just hanging out- probably enjoying the silence like I was.

But tomorrow will be a great day (think positive). I have some fun activities planned and that always goes over well. I also have a bunch of library videos, so if the foursome drive me nuts despite the activities, I'll make myself some coffee and stick them in front of the screen to make it until 5pm!!

Great post and not really so quick. Will you be posting sonagram pics?

We will be praying the foursome goes well.

yeah, I hope you had a better day today. I thought about going last night, but had too much pain. We did get to have some of your lasagna though! It was great, I loved the beans.

I wanted to go, I meant to go. I had a friend call at the last minute, she had wrecked her car and her daughter was sick. ( Her daughter is three and loves me to death!) I had to take her some medicine. By the time I called Joel to say I was on the way, B had already played. SO I went to the end of Nash's practice. Sorry I missed you, please keep me informed of your outings, I would love to meet up with you eventually. .

Ruth and I continue to think of you all and the baby. We are looking forward to seeing you at Christmas time.
