The pics




In the first one it looks like she is blowing bubbles. In the 3D image she looks grumpy so I think she looks like Mike! LOL!!!

She is still a She!

I don't have the pics scanned yet so I will add them tonight or tomorrow. You know a teaching hospital is necessary, but does it have to be in my hometown? I love seeing the baby but when it is for over an hour and your ultrasound tech is a newbie it is not so fun. After about an hour of trying to get certain shots and he still wasn't successful he said he was going to go get another sonographer and make sure everything was okay, then he paused, then he got up and said "um, yeah, okay" and then he left. Mike and I didn't say anything to each other but we both had a funny look on our face. Then the "pro" came in and started to look around and doing her thing. She was much better at getting the shots but it was just too long on my back and mixed with the thought that something might be wrong I started to feel really sick. So I asked to sit up for a second and Mike asked if my back was hurting and I said not I just didn't feel right, so she had me lay down tilted to my left side and she continued. I still wasn't feeling good so she told me to turn all the way on my left side and I finally started to feel better. Then I asked her if she could do 3D and apparantly she already had and printed pics as well. Mike was like she just did that a few seconds ago. LOL! I said oh that must have been in my almost black out stupor! I remember her talking about the umbiblical cord but was concentrating more on not barfing all over Mike. So note to self - don't rest on your back since it does cut off most of your circulation while pregnant. I still didn't feel well the rest of the night and woke up chocking on my own vomit. I didn't feel sick to my stomach but I guess I drank too much water before I went to bed cause at 11:00 pm I woke up puking in my mouth, which is alway pleasant. I think maybe the baby was moving and that caused it. I feel better today but still a little off. I am guessing it is just the 3rd trimester catching up with me. I am pretty sure there was nothing wrong with the baby, it was just the newbie's inability to get a good shot, cause the other tech seemed totally capable and unconcerned about anything. She just asked the guy what he didn't get and she picked it up right away. I still don't know the result of where the placenta is cause they are not really allowed to say much of anything except the gender and what is what. I have another appointment booked for the 26th and the OB will let me know then. Hopefully there is nothing wrong with the baby and it was just a newbie being a newbie!

28 Weeks



I know I missed 27 Weeks but the 26 and a half week one was closer to 27 weeks so I just thought I would let it slide by, lol. I was actually having one of those weeks where I felt like a beast so I didn't even want to do my hair let alone smile for the camera!

The house is starting to come along nicely. We can't wait to see even more progress on it. Here is the latest picture:



Last but not least, here is what I bought at the final days of the Babies r Us Baby Fest. There is still 2 days left of the sale though...



We saw our new OB today. He seems nice and so does his student although they disagreed on the position of the baby. We will find out who was right tomorrow cause we have another ultrasound to find out where the placenta is. It will be neat to see the baby at this size. When they turn on the 3D she won't look so alien! I will post again tomorrow and let you know how it went and probably post some ultrasound pics.

The Foundation and Baby Fest!



Well they didn't get that much done to the house this week, but the one next to us has it's first floor on. (It will be done first, cause the guy who bought the house draws up all the plans for the builder) Anyways, they are working on 4 houses at once so I am hoping for a little more progress this week. I can't wait till it is all finished! The end of November and early December will be busy for us and I got some more good news from my Shanny and have something else to look forward to at the begining of December.

In other news, Babies r Us is having it's baby fest for the next 2 weeks and I have already spent $400.00 and it was the first day of the sale, lol! My little storage area is starting to look like a baby store. This is what we bought:




The stroller was originally $300 and we got it for $150 so we had to do it. No, I do not plan on jogging, but it is so much easier to push around than a regular stroller. At this rate there will be nothing left to buy on my registry, lol! I still have to go to Wal-Mart and Sears to register though.

26 and a half weeks



Here is the latest picture. I am starting to feel like a stuffed sausage! The humid weather did not help much, it made my feet look huge. But all is well with the world once again cause it is nice and cool today. I woke up and immediatley looked at my feet and said "aahhh, much better!" I am almost 7 Months and I still have a belly button but I don't think it can hold out much longer, lol! I think I am doomed to get stretch marks on my side, at night they are just so tight, and I don't think they will hold out for another 3 months.
