A BOY IS

TRUTH with dirt on his face,

BEAUTY with a cut on his finger,

WISDOM with bubble gum in his hair,

and theHOPE of the future with a
frog in his pocket.

LITTLE GIRLS

Little girls are made of daisies and butterflies and soft kitty cat purrs

And all the precious memories of times that once were.

Little girls are made of angel's wings and giggles and a firefly's glow

And all the happy feelings, deep inside, that we all know.

Little girls are made of cinnamon and bubbles and fancy white pearls

And snowflakes and rainbows and ballerina twirls.

Little girls are made of sunshine and cupcakes and fresh morning dew,

And these are the reasons, little one, why everyone loves you.

Our Babe


Attached are pics of our baby. Today the baby is 8 weeks old! Our official due date is August 10th.

The 1st picture was taken yesterday at 7 weeks 6 days. The baby is 14.5mm and the heartbeat is 137 now. We could even see the baby’s developing brain yesterday – technology today is so amazing! (And no you can not guess from the heartbeat whether a boy or girl this early in development, per the Dr. J )

The 2nd picture was taken last Monday at 6 weeks 6 days. The baby was 6.5mm and the heartbeat was 123.

The baby is perfect developmentally for his/her age. We have 1 more appt at the specialist next Monday and then I am released back to my OB. I was able to stop a few oral meds today. Awful Progesterone – lumpy butte shots - stop the 13 of January but the even worse blood thinner shots don’t stop until March 9 L. Being able to have this baby makes the shots worth it though.

How exciting!!! I'm so glad the progesterone shots stop soon anyway. At least that is something.
