I was trying to figure out what I could use for a picture for this blog post, since we had our regular checkup appointment on Tuesday. This one didn't include an ultrasound and I'm not sure how to grab audio of the heartbeat, so I was searching for a picture to use, when lo and behold, someone came to the rescue!
As you will note in our last post, we are referring to the little one as the sock monkey, since we're convinced that's what he/she resembles in the ultarasound pics! Well, my very dear friend, Julie, surprised me this morning with our little nugget's first stuffed animal - The Original Sock Monkey! I'm so excited that he/she will have this as the first stuffed animal and will know that's how we referred to him or her! Thank you so much, Julie and Ed, for the wonderful gift! We absolutely LOVE it!
As for the doctor appointment... Everything is going well. The baby is great. I'm great. We detected a strong heartbeat (that made me laugh every time I heard it). Only six more weeks until we can find out the baby's gender... Of course, I've been trying to do predictions based on everything possible!
More to come!
