It's been a while

Sorry - we haven't updated in a while. Everything is still going well. I had a dr. appointment on June 27 and we thought we would get to hear the heartbeat; however, that was not the case. The nurse tried for a bit and the dr. tried for a bit, but the little one wouldn't cooperate. So, we got to see the baby again! The dr. did an ultrasound - my first external - which was nice! It is so amazing to see the little one moving around. The first ultrasound, you couldn't see very much, but this one the baby looks so much bigger. And, you could see arms, legs, feet, etc. You couldn't help but smile!

Baby G was quite active that morning, but everything looked fine. Hopefully s/he will cooperate next time with the doppler - it was a little nerve-wracking when they couldn't hear anything.

I had found a card a while back that I gave Robert to tell him when I had a positive test result. The outside read: When is a kick in the stomach a good thing? The inside read: When it comes from the inside! After the active ultrasound I told Robert that if there is a next time, I will be more careful in the card that I pick!

I'll be headed to Greenville in August. I don't think Robert is going to make it this time. I'll keep you posted and those in the area, maybe we can get together.

We'll try to be better with the updates. Have a good week!
