Baby Blogging

Things have been going well with the baby.

For the most part, DeAnne's past the nausea.  She still has moments of it, usually triggered by strong smells, but she's not been just walking around feeling like she's going to hurl all the time.  Now if she could just shake this cold that's been hounding her for the past couple of weeks, she'd be in good shape.  

We've been taking pictures each week on Saturday but we missed this past week's because D-Now.  It's actually been kind of hard to tell if she's been getting bigger week to week in the pictures so I'm kind of curious to see what a difference two weeks makes.

We had an ultrasound last Wednesday and made an attempt at determining what we're having but the little stinker didn't want to cooperate.  We're going to try again in about a week and a half and hopefully this time we'll be able to get a definite answer.  We've got ideas about furniture and bedding and things, we just need to know what we're having so that we know which way to go with all of it.

Probably the most exciting thing is that the baby has become a pretty active little dancer.  DeAnne feels him moving pretty often now and the other day I was actually able to feel it for a brief moment.  It was probably one of the single most amazing things that's ever happened.  To know that another life is in there, moving around and just waiting to make it's debut to the world is just mind-blowing.  I really can't wait for July.  It's going to be a lot of work, but we're going to love every second of it.
