Critter's Heart Goes Boom Boom Boom

This morning was very wonderful. Jacob and I had our 3rd doctor's appointment. It was a quick one but special because we got to hear Critter's heartbeat through the doppler device. It looks like a little microphone with a speaker. She held it up to my tummy and it went...BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. 160 beats per minute. She said everything is perfect! Jacob and I were just thrilled and so happy to hear such a sweet sound. My blood pressure was good and I haven't gained any weight! Obviously my stomach is growing so hopefully that means my butt and legs are shrinking :) A girl can dream. I was told that I need to be exercising now that the extreme fatigue is wearing off. She said since it is so cold outside I should get some videos to do in the house. That could be entertaining...seeing as I'm not very coordinated! Ha. Oh...and next month we get the "big" ultrasound but remember we're keeping it a surprise so we will not be finding out what we are having. Well, I just wanted to share in my excitement. Have a great day!!

yea, yea...we've heard it all. last night we tried tieing Trish's legs together, built a fire, told her to wave her arms, and dance around it while driking a Mai Tai. It worked. The fire was orange. Must be a girl.
