This afternoon I had my monthly OB checkup. I'm 16 weeks and 4 days pregnant today (how did that happen so fast?). I for some reason made the appointment at 3:00 when no one was home to watch the boys so I had to drag them with me. Thankfully it was the quickest appointment I have ever been to there. We were in and out in 2o minutes which must be some kind of record. R was excited to go because he wanted to hear the baby's heartbeat. My doctor came in and gave R the doppler to hold and let him press the button. After a minute of searching around and still not hearing the heartbeat I started getting a little worried. I knew I felt her squirming this morning but still your mind tends to go to all those crazy places. The doctor helped R turn the volume up and after a little more searching we heard the heartbeat but we really had to listen. She must have been all curled up and trying to hide! Everything else checked out great except that I have officially gained 5 pounds. Bummer. I know I have at least 20 more to go but that first 5 always seems so hard to accept!
After we left the doctor we went to have snack ant Nona's and visit for awhile. Around 5:30 R told us he was tired and wanted to take a nap. He set himself up a little bed on the couch and of course C needed one too. Here are the two goofballs pretending to sleep in their "beds".
