Dr Appointment

I had my monthly check-up today and everything is going great. Aaron went with me, like he usually does, but today he got to hear the baby's heartbeat. I heard the heartbeat at my last appointment, but my mom went with me instead of Aaron, so today was the first time Aaron heard it. The baby was playing hide-n-seek with the nurse and it took her a little bit to find it, which naturally scared me a little bit. All is well though, the baby's heart rate is 166 beats per minute and the nurse predicted a boy. Dr. Blann will not do the ultrasound till I am about 21 weeks, so 5 more weeks to go before we can find out what the baby is. I guess I can wait till then, although I am getting tired of calling my baby "it", but it will be worth the wait. I have not gained any weight yet, (for the first time in my life) but Dr. Blann said it is nothing to worry about. It is weird to me that the one time in my life I want to gain some weight, I don't, but I figure it will happen sooner than later. I should gain around 12-15 pounds this trimester, so I guess it will be coming.

Other than baby news, there really is not a whole lot going on in our lives. One of Aaron's closest friends is getting married Saturday, so we will be doing wedding stuff all weekend, which should be fun. Aaron is also going to be in golf tourney in Ruidoso right after Labor Day, so I guess I have to let him practice a lot in the upcoming weeks. He is really excited about the tourney, and I hope he does really well, and if not, we get to go to Ruidoso, so it is a win, win situation for us. I guess that is about going on right now.

Love,
