Okay, 4 ½ months down and only many…many more to go! At least that’s what I am telling myself. It feels like it was just yesterday that we were celebrating our 17th week of growing Sprout and now here we are at 18 weeks. The time is definitely passing too quickly, but with each new day comes a new flutter in my tummy and a new inch to my chub bump.
This week started with the celebration of 2010 and the hubby and I rang in the New Year at home watching Land of the Lost (which I slept through until the final countdown of 2009). Earlier in the night we joined Auntie Elizabeth and Uncle Rick and visited their friends Royce, Rachel and baby Raiden. He’s so cute and we had a great visit and played a couple of board games. Lets just say girls kick butt (until we pull the wild card and had to go back to start! What kind of game is that?). After all of the phone calls wishing everyone a Happy New Year, Mike and I hit the pillows and decided to listen to baby Sprout. A couple of months ago we got this audio device that straps around my tummy and has two sets of headphones for us to hear what is going on in my tummy. We can’t hear the heartbeat with the device, but you can definitely hear Sprout’s wild exercising, body flinging and kicking…especially when he just happens to kick right where the microphone is sitting. Hubby and I actually fell asleep listening to Sprout and woke up around 1am, just in time to unlatch me and to take my vitamins. Then, off to bed!
Okay friends and family….it’s your time to get involved! Our 2nd trimester ultrasound is coming up this Friday and we are taking all last bets on if Sprout will be a girl or a boy. So make sure and take the gender poll found to the right of this blog! We can’t wait for this ultrasound and can’t wait to see how big baby has grown. Wish us luck and we will keep you posted on all of the news to come.
