break out the stretchy pants....

4 months, hooray!

Things are perfect! I have been feeling really great. My only complaint is that I get REALLY sharp pains in my lower belly sometimes when I reach for things or roll over in bed. Jenn, our midwife, said that it's just things stretching around. (well, she said many more technical things but that was the short of it.)

My weekly email says that baby is now the size of an avocado! Dave was happy, he loves him some avocado. #3 is developing eyelashes and hair this week! EYELASHES!
We also got to hear the little heartbeat again. It was so clear and loud and strong. AND you could tell by all of the other noises that it was moving around like crazy. Never thought I would be in love with a heartbeat, but I totally am. 

I just made our first ultrasound appointment! It will be September 22 at 2:15. I really cannot freaking wait to see the little bugger. (the ultrasound scheduling lady was SUCH a jerk to me on the phone I almost lost my marbles but I kept my cool. I did, however, have an out loud fight with her after I hung up, it made me feel better)

We are also looking into taking some childbirth classes at Jenn's suggestion... We aren't really sure if we will but I'm researching them. Same goes for getting a Doula..
Dave and I are extremely connected and private.. we kind of feel like it will be the best for us to have as few people there as possible, even if they are the sweetest most helpful people in the universe.. but, we'll see.

OK! That's all I got! Pictures will be coming very soon.. I am starting to "swell" (as my bosses wife put it..)
