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?

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. ๐Ÿ˜‚
