Moving Right Along

I am moving right along with this pregnancy, I am 18 weeks along today. Although my mom has wondered if I am pregnant with twins, I'm not showing anymore than most people at this point. My big ultrasound is July 21st, we will get a second look at our little one and hopefully be able to see if it's a little girl or little guy. Of course that isn't the only reason for the ultrasound, it makes sure that the heart, bladder, stomach, etc.. are all functioning and that the baby's spine, skull, legs and arms are all measuring and looking good.

Earlier today, I took our oldest daughter to the doctor for her five year checkup and kindergarten vaccinations. She passed the hearing and vision test (although it looks like she only has 20/30 vision). They gave her three shots in her thighs and she took them like a true woman, they brought tears to her eyes but she never shed a tear.

It looks like everyone is starting to feel a little better, except my husband. He has a sore throat and is coughing with some congestion. Our youngest is still a little congested with a runny nose, but at least she is acting better and doesn't have a fever anymore. I am feeling a lot better, the antibiotics seem to finally be doing their job. Hopefully in a few days everyone will be feeling better and things around the house will be a little more normal for us.

So does this mean you're doing Kindergarten then or just kindergarten shots? :)

Wow... 18 weeks. I can't believe you have your big u/s in FIVE DAYS! I look forward to the results of that!

We must get together soon. How do you feel about a swim/picnic play date at Bryan park?
