Peek-a-boo #2!


Yesterday, we had another sonogram scheduled.  We we able to see a very active baby.  They had me drink some apple juice right before scanning my belly to 'wake the baby up.'  Keep in mind, my bladder was already way full and they wouldn't let me use the potty until after the test was complete.  But, of course, I made it and was so grateful to relieve myself after we were finished.  It was so wonderful to see another baby growing inside of me.  What a miracle!  I could see five fingers waving at me.  I told Stephen that the baby was waving "hi" to him.  We are now at 13 weeks and 2 days.  I'm going to make it.  Nausea is diminishing and I'm feeling a little more energy these days.  Our new due date is August 5.  I'm going to try for August 7 to make it an anniversary gift to Ray and I. : )  Actually, if baby wants to show up at the end of July, I won't complain. : )
Here's the profile.

Yes, baby has a nose.
Waving Hi to the family!  count those fingers.

Strong and steady heartbeat.  I love to hear the sound of the the little one's hearts.  They are so full of joy.  It seems they beat so fast because they are so excited to finally come to earth and receive their body.  Shout for joy!  Life is good!

CONGRATS!!! I hope you don't mind me commenting on your blog - I found it through the Hinckley's blog (I'm a bit of a blog hopper) and think it's crazy that we have a lot in common - my bday is Feb 2, my anniversary is Aug 8 and my second child was born Aug 9. Anyway, congrats and your baby is adorable!!!
