New Due Date


So I went for a sonogram yesterday and there is only one bean in this pod!!! Sorry you guys wishing I was having two, shame on you.

The old due date was October 30th, the doc gave me that date from the OBGYN "date wheel." Anyone who has had a child knows what that wheel is. It's how they calculate the due date of your child from the date of your last period, add 7 days and subtract 3 months. Real actuate! HA.

When I went for my first appointment I told Vicki that this kid was conceived on Feb. 2nd but she wanted to go by the "wheel" and gave me a date of Feb 6th that it was conceived (whatever). So last week I go in for my monthly visit and she says that I'm measuring a week and a half further along and wanted to do a sonogram to see why. That was yesterday's visit.

Mandy is GOOD!! She measured Baby Boo and according to her measurements I am 14 weeks as of tomorrow, Saturday April 26th. AND if you subtract 14 weeks from tomorrow you get what date?????? February 2nd !!! I told you hehehehe.

N E Who...... we're doing fine, Mandy got a great shot between the legs but the umbilical cord was in the way. Maybe next time. :)

My next appointment is on May 14th at 17 weeks so who knows when the next sonogram will be.

11 1/2 Weeks

Our baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her/his hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her/his gums, and some of her/his bones are beginning to harden.She/he's already busy kicking and stretching, and her/his tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her/his body grows and becomes more developed and functional. I won't feel the baby's acrobatics for another month or two (whatever)— nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her/his diaphragm is forming.
I have a doctors appointment this Wednesday, April 16th at 10:40 am. This is where Vicki says she can determine if it's a boy or a girl, she says it depends on if he/she makes it difficult to find the heart beat then it's a boy because boys are difficult! AMEN
To bad she's only kidding. But if the heart beat is like over 150 bpm then it's a girl and if it's slow, less then 150 bpm then its a boy. The tall tale is that the boys have a larger heart and beats slower whereas the girls have a smaller heart and have to beat faster to keep up. Whatever, I just want to hear a heartbeat!
For all of those still really wondering the sex, it probably won't be until mid to late June, sorry! But you know I'll post it when I find out!!

Their Hitched!!!


Saturday, April 5th, 2008 was a long, rainy day. However, that didn't stop the second couple that I have successfully fixed up that has gotten hitched!
The weekend actually started on Friday with the Bridal Luncheon and ended Saturday night after midnight. Needless to say....I'm pooped! I took Sunday and most of Monday to recoop.
Let's hope they don't get burned in Jamaica!
