So spring has sprung. The flowers are beautiful and all is right with the world. Chug your water and swallow your allergy meds and lets all take a little moment to sit back and enjoy spring time, shall we? We are enjoying the way our house looks, and the stupid bee's pollinating our wonderful and BLACK awning.
Why cant the stupid azaleas last longer than like, 3 days?
Anyways. Today was my 16 week check up. I pretty much avoid all pictures of myself at this point. My body is weird looking and I look like a had to much to drink or like a ate Thanksgiving and had leftovers...and desert....and need a laxative pronto. My friends and coworkers all swear that eventually this darling little "bump" will pop out and all will be well with the world. Until then, I'm keeping myself and the 5lbs that look more like 15 to myself. The bump will come loved ones, with a spray tan and a shower. Promise. Until then I will continue to wear my hidden "belly band" over my unbuttoned pants and kind of sort of wonder why I didn't have this as an acceptable option in college.
On a lighter note, my Nurse Practitioner Courtney who I LOVE and ADORE allowed me to take a quick little video of the baby's heart tones today. Sadly, it's only 6 seconds long because the little booger kept moving around and when that happened these odd fart-ish noises happened. Woof.
(video to come)
150 beats per minute. Nice and strong, and a definite mover (and P.I.T.A to capture...just like Mama). Next visit will be at 20 weeks and we will find out the gender. May 9th. I might need to medicate my Mama and my Mother-in-law before then.
Any guesses? The world seems to think It's a boy. Our Mom's want girls, our Dad's want boys the list goes on. Until next time.
