Another ultrasound?? Sweet!

So, the other day I met with a PA for my dr's appt. and after measuring and listening to babes heart rate (high 140's - low 150's), I mentioned how disappointed we were with our ultrasound last month and how rushed it felt. The PA said she'd talk to the dr about it and see what they could do. I said okay, but wasn't really expecting anything.

Well, I got a phone call from the dr.'s office the next day saying that they'd do another ultrasound for us right before my next visit - free of charge! :) Sweet!  So, on Feb. 14th, we'll get to see another shot of the babe.  That's also the day I have to drink the lovely orange soda drink to test for gestational diabetes.  Babe might be REALLY active.  :D  Happy Valentine's Day to us!

Whatcha' doin' in there?

So, we sat down for a family "dinner and a movie" downstairs, and babe was just going crazy during it.  So Brandon & each of the boys took a turn feeling my belly, and they were able to feel him dancing around in there!  So much fun!  Bear keeps coming up to my stomach and saying, "Hi baby."  I'm sure he doesn't get it yet, but he does get that Mom doesn't have as much room on her lap anymore.

I remember one time when I felt my brother moving around in my moms stomach - something I think I'll always remember - so I think it's pretty neat that most of the boys will probably always remember this.  Fun memories to have!
