He's a keeper!

As I sit here shoving my face full of chocolate chip cookies, my 2+ pound alien thrashes around in my belly. If you know about the cookies, you understand the thrashing..."more mama, more!!!" So I dive into #3. They're small! I used the small scoop! Never too young for chocolate chip cookies!


Like I said, I had a doc appt yesterday...everything was fine, heartbeat was 154, the nurse was all excited...the doc said his head is down, but things can flip of course. Then he ordered another ultra sound so I had that today (31st). Pardon me, laundry beckons...no Angie, I didn't hang any on the line this time, it's dark out!


I had to drink 32 oz of water in an hour this morning, my bladder hasn't felt right since! I don't think I quit made it to 32, I felt like I was going to spring a leak! And wouldn't you know as I was leaving the hospital I saw the glorious sign for the bathroom (stop #2), but the DUDE was in there cleaning!!! Typical. Men. I got a couple pictures, I can only really tell what one of them is all about. I asked for a picture of the manhood to show Greg, but she couldn't do that. Is that considered kiddie porn or something? But Greg has only seen the first u/s blob in person, if I have another one, hopefully they work with me to schedule it at a good time. Anyways, here's Thor at a little over 2 pounds, 26 weeks 2 days:

You can see his cute little nose and lips, chin...the fish looking thing above him is his arm. If you look good you can see his eyes or eyelids...I saw his ribs and the bones in his arms...and his little heart beating away like crazy. And I think he's folded up like a pretzel. I thought it was his hinder sticking out on my right side, but it sounds like it's an elbow that he throws out. I don't know, I couldn't really follow the tech on his position. I know where the head is and that's about it.

And here, if you can handle it, is his house. I made Greg watch my belly move this weekend...I don't think he liked it. It freaks me out too. But I think there's a noticeable difference in that belly! Yikes!

I suppose that covers...OOOH, Sara and Saul are coming home in July for the shower! Charles is going fishing in Mexico for bullheads or something. AND somebody had an excellent weekend without his feeding tube! Yay!!!

Now I think I got it all!
