It's Facebook official!!

This morning, Michael and I had a doctors appointment. We met with a nurse who went over a bunch of the specifics - doctors visits, sonograms, different tests, etc. She was really great. She said that she is going to put in my due date as July 20th...since it is more accurate than the 22nd! YEAA!!!! Which means, the latest this baby will be is July 27th :)

After we met with her for about 45 minutes, I had my blood drawn for different tests they send to the lab. Once we got to the room, Michael had sit still long enough, and was playing with all the different gadgets they have on the table. He was most fasinated with the NuvaRing Example...it had a string on it that retracted, and became this toy. It was soo funny!! He put it on his belt buckle and everything LOL.

Dr Desmarais was back today, and she asked me a couple questions, and then did a quick ultrasound to make sure everything looked good. She didn't print me off anything, but it was really neat! It has grown soo much since the last one. It almost fills up the entire sack already...crazy! And we saw the heart beat too :) I am in just utter awe!

She put in a note for me to come back in 3 weeks to get a Nuchal Ultrasound which will be better resolution and tests the length of the baby's neck. They will also prick my finger, and test its chances of having Cystic Fybrosis and Down Syndrome (I think). We get to bring in a DVD to tape the entire ultrasound on it too - I can't wait!!

And last but not least...I made it facebook official!! (You are welcome Anna!)
Everyone is excited for us!

This is just soo very surreal! Even Dr. Desmarais (who just had her baby) says she holds her daughter, and thinks...her mom will be here any minute to pick her up...oh wait...thats her. hahah.

Life definitely comes at you fast! I'm just trying to take it all in...one day at a time.
