Baby Update

We have been under a Winter Storm Warning all day- the snow started this morning about 9:30 and is still coming down. Thankfully, it isn't as bad as predicted and we have only gotten 6 inches or so! The wind is supposed to really pick up tonight and possibly make the roads bad tomorrow though. Jason got to leave work early and I left early for my doctor appointment.

The doctor just wanted me to check in after being in the hospital last week. Everything looked great- my blood pressure is unchanging and perfect (that is what they tell me), my weight gain is good and the baby's heartrate was in the 150s. I was reminded to stay well hydrated to help prevent future kidney stones- something I don't think I will be forgetting anytime soon!

Last weekend Jason & I spent the day in Mankato- shopping! He was sooo excited, but didn't complain much. We actually looked at some things for the baby- it is crazy how many choices there are for stollers, car seats, & pack-n-plays! We have definitely narrowed it down, but I want to keep our options open for now. I would hate to make any plans too early! We got to eat out at Applebee's & BWW and go to the movies! We watched "New In Town"- it was good and the popcorn was great!

This week I am 23 weeks...No, I don't wear the same clothes all the time- just every Tuesday for a weekly picture

I finally got our ultrasound pictures scanned onto the computer. All these pictures are actually from the 2nd & 3rd ultrasounds I had done last Monday. The first ultrasound pictures didn't show much because the baby was moving so much, but last week the tech got some good ones (we think anyway).

The baby relieved my pain was finally over! The tech said it looked like the baby had my nose
