First Profile


Monday, I had the nuchal translucency scan. The procedure itself is stressful based on what it's testing for. However, it was very cool to have a more lengthy sonogram of the baby (new pictures posted). This is the first time that Justin has seen the baby since we heard the heartbeat in December. Our baby has grown a lot! Its length is on track for our due date. It has a profile, arms, legs, fingers, and toes. It was moving all over the place and seemed to be hiccuping - based on the jerks, it has my hiccups. Crazy to see that happening inside me when I can't feel anything.

Back to the test - the technician said that we'll get results in a week. I'm hoping that everything is "in normal range" and that we do not need to consider additional tests.

The pictures are cool - you can see the profile. I think that the baby has Justin's nose - check the 1st picture. :)

In other news - my clothes are getting tight! The next purchase is going to be a new pair of jeans.

Echo echo echo...

We welcomed a new pet to our home: Echo, a lovely red Betta. The name is all Spence, though he did pose a few other suggestions. Spence: I'm going to name it Bluey. Me: the fish is red. Spence: then I'll name it Reddy. Me: Let's stick with Echo. That's a cool name.

Sunday Afternoon in the Park

Could be a well known play, but in this case, it's the new Yankee Stadium. I picked up tickets Thursday afternoon for today's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. This is the first game we've been to at the new stadium. The new stadium is very nice - much more in line with other new stadiums. There is a lot more space in the walkways - more food options - and much better bathrooms! The latter being most important to me right now. Our tickets were in left field in the upper deck. All in all, decent seats - but the sun made them a bit unbearable. The game started off slow - I mean slow. The first two innings took almost 2 hours. We were roasting in the sun! Eventually, we decided to walk around to check out the rest of the stadium and get out of the sun. The game got much better after we starting moving. Eventually, we ended up on the first level watching the game from the walkway. The pregnancy bump paid off, because one of the ushers in this area let us sit down in the shade
