Well as you can see I have really grown over the last 5 weeks!! I had my first appointment with the OB here and everything looks good. Heartbeat 136 (so that means a boy according to the wives tale right?) and measuring 24 cm. Eleven pounds gained total, not in one month as my mom thought when I first told her!! Thanks Mom! Although I have to say I can never get enough of all the yummy Mexican food. I think everyone is tired of going out to eat with me because that is what I always want......but you would want it all the time too if you were sequestered up North without any around you for miles and miles! I have another ultrasound and the glucose testing next month. This little peanut is moving around so much. It is just the most amazing thing if you think about it. God is so great! Who else could create something so miraculous?
So far Brynn is being a great big sister!! Since we did not want to confuse her too much we have just starting telling her about the baby in mommy's belly. Plus 16 more weeks is already a lifetime to her I am sure, 40 weeks would be way too long! If I ask her where mommy's baby is she lifts up my shirt and points right at my belly button and loves to give it kisses.
There is one thing we need to do and that is to decide on some names! Brent and I really have a hard time agreeing on this subject. I find it VERY overwhelming! Plus since we are not finding out the gender this time we have to agree on not one but two names! YIKES!! I hope we find one we like over the next 16 weeks or we'll be arguing about it in L&D!
