Baby’s First Picture

Today Chris and I had our first ultrasound. It was pretty exciting to see what a perfect little person the baby is. The ultrasound tech was able to get a picture of a little hand sticking up so we could see each individual finger. Getting to see baby is really making this start to feel real.

The tech had to wake baby up and get her/him to move so she could get better measurements and, boy, did baby not want to cooperate! After s/he finally woke up it looked like s/he was playing with the umbilical cord! Chris got to hear the heartbeat for the first time and we could see the chest moving on the ultrasound. I told Chris we should get stock in GE (see the little logo in the upper left-hand corner?), because people are always going to want to see their babies.

I haven’t felt the baby move yet, but that should start pretty soon, which’ll be our next milestone. I have my new patient meeting next week where I get to learn all about the doctor’s office and hospital. The tech said we’ll be able to tell the baby’s sex at the next sonogram, which is at the end of March, but we’re leaning toward not finding out until baby’s birthday. My coworkers don’t like this idea and Kelly, my boss, who has a seven-week-old wants to know if she should be saving boy clothes for me…but I think the suspense will be fun. Any thoughts?

Z was Raja in an Aladdin production through her dance studio @pasgeorgetown this evening and she did such a great job. I loved watching her. She took a year off dance and is getting back into it and you'd barely know she took any time off, plus she had a big smile on her face the whole time - I could tell she was having a ton of fun. ♥️

What happens when you go on a long weekend trip with only your husband, no kids, and no agenda? 

Lots of walking, cocktails in the middle of the day, singing at a piano bar, and time to write a blog post for the first time in nearly two years. Which I did! 

😮 For real. LOL 😊

Today Chris and I have been married for 15 years. We're celebrating with our first weekend away from children while my mom watches all four girls. We rented an old Victorian from the 1800s near the coast in Galveston, Texas and spent the day at a spa, eating delicious food, walking the beach under the stars, and finished the night with a bottle of bourbon saved from when we lived on Nantucket. I'm not sure I could have asked for a much better day. I even had an oppotunity to get out the lightship basket purse Chris gave me for our 5th anniversary. ♥️

We had a cold snap and yesterday we had to get all bundled up for Zara's soccer game. It was 30 degrees and, despite these pictures, Vivi's patience for being out there did not last long. Tomorrow it's supposed to be 80 degrees and we're really looking forward to warmth again.

By the way, my awesome gaiter came from our client @isacattostudio. Isa paints patterns and makes really beautiful textiles and notebooks with her patterns. ♥️ her work and team.
