June Stuff

Well June has been fun even though I have not been posting. I am finally getting out of the miserable first trimester and so that has been nice. Here are some pictures of when we went to the new Sea Life at Mills mall. It was fun and Bryn loved looking at all the fish and the "sharps" which are sharks. Then we ate lunch at Rainforest Cafe and she was pretty freaked out by all the animals and thunder until halfway through lunch and then she thought it was fun. The third picture is of Bryn with some gummy snake in her mouth that we bought from the gift shop. She had a super fun day!

What a crazy baby. She is getting used to the idea that she will be a big sister but she is a little confused by the baby in mommy's tummy. She lately keeps pulling up her shirt and saying "I have a baby in my tummy" and sometimes she tells me to open my tummy so she can see the new baby. She is silly but she will get used to it as I get bigger I think. And other than that we have just been finding ways to get out of the heat and stay inside. Another interesting thing about Bryn is that her favorite movie right now is the new Alice in Wonderland. We bought it and started watching it one night thinking she was tired and would ignore it like all the other movies that we watch that aren't animated and bore her. But she sat down and was enthralled! She gets so into the story and it is so cute although I was worried about several parts scaring her. They don't seem to anymore but she did think it was cool that the Bandersnatch licks Alice's arm and so she now has to lick my arm or try and get me to lick hers all day long! And I started her in a little dance class once a week. She is the youngest and tends to be a little spaz but she likes it and she gets to learn how to listen! It's cute, they even do some tapping and ballet. Fun, fun and the best part is I get an hour all to myself. It's even better than a nap because I don't have to listen for when she wakes up! I will eventually post a picture of Bryn in her cute dance outfit, I just haven't taken one yet. And that is what we have been up to!

Good news

Guess what? It's a ................................................................................................................................

..........................................................................................................................................................New Baby! Yay we are finally sharing our good news. I am expecting and the baby looks really good. We found out in April and my first Dr appt. was on May 5th. We did an ultrasound and I was 7 and a half weeks and we could see the baby's heart beating. We have waited to tell everyone until after my second visit which I had yesterday just so we could get past the danger zone for miscarriage. So here is how my visit yesterday went: first they took 5 vials of blood. Geez, I was pretty dizzy and tired the whole rest of the afternoon! Then we tried to listen to the baby's heartbeat with the Doppler device and the doctor couldn't find it. So of course at this point I am so nervous and praying as hard as I can that everything is all right. So we had to do another ultrasound and guess what? The baby is just fine, the placenta was blocking us from hearing the heartbeat but I got to watch the baby squirm and wiggle which was so fun. So we are due on December 17th and we are so excited (except for Bryn who when I tell her that I have a baby in my tummy says 'no' every time - hopefully she will get used to the idea!). Here are the pictures: the first one is when I was 7 weeks and the next one is from yesterday and I am 11 and half weeks now.
