Dr Richards

So I'm at 20 weeks and the big count backwards begins!  I love feeling him wiggle.  He woke me up the other night tickling my bladder, and I realized I was smiling.  This morning it was tiny hiccups.  I had a visit with Dr Richards.  All looks great.  I love to see him even for just a quick routine visit.  It was my first time seeing him since before the ultra sound.  He looked over my chart and said "So you're trying something new!"  I knew he'd have something to say that would make me smile.  He then asked if I had any concerns.  I asked how long till the  dread glucose test.( It's not about failing it, it's about hating that dumb test.)  He laughed at me and told me to relax I had 8 more weeks before the real dread should set in.  In reality I'm sure he was laughing about that being my biggest worry.  I've learned not complain about all  the aches that I didn't have the last 3 times, so I can avoid  hearing "you're not 20 something anymore."  I've decided to wait a few more visits to tell him my biggest concern....will he be there for the delivery.

Dinosaurs, bugs, and blue, Oh My!!

 I could hardly sleep last night I was so excited for my ultra sound today.What can I say except that I couldn't be more excited to be having a boy!  The prayers around my house the last couple of days have been so sweet!  Instead of praying for a brother or sister, the girls have been praying simply that we would be able to find out what we were having. And tonight when Elsye said dinner prayers she was thankful that we could know that we are having a brother.  How cute is that?  She really is so excited to have a brother.  We are enjoying using the words "him" and "brother".   This would be my first purchase.  I just had to find out what it was like to buy something without pink, or needing hair accessories to match! "Bananas over Mommy".
