Hank




So this baby finally has a nickname, it's Hank. Jeff and I were discussing baby names and I had highlighted Henry in the baby name book. Well Jeff did not like that one! He said he couldn't believe I wanted to name our baby Hank. So it kinda stuck and now we call this little one Hank. We had our 12 week ultrasound and it was great! My mom and Jeff were both able to be there the whole time and I had my own personal TV screen right in front of me. The baby is so cute and was moving all around and waving and gulping fluid. Our next viewing will be around 20 weeks.

10 weeks 5 days update!

So I had my regular every 4 weeks appointment with the midwife yesterday. All is well. I've only gained 1 lbs but my regular pants are no longer fitting so I think there has been a re-distribution of weight and everything is going to my belly. My blood pressure is nice and low and everything else seems to be going great! The midwife said that my energy should be returning soon which I am really looking forward to. I'd like to be more active but by the time I leave work I'm just spent. I'm so excited for Christmas this year and we will be able to share our news with everyone by then. What a great gift!
