Just another Baby Appointment

We had another baby appointment with the doctor earlier this week. This was a pretty quick and easy check up. Weight check, blood pressure, etc. We also got to listen the baby's heartbeat again! Still a strong heartbeat in the 150's! So everything checked out great.

We go back at the end of March for our 3-D ultrasound. They'll be doing some checking for any problems but this is also a great time for us to get some face shots of our little baby! :) Then at the beginning of April, it's back again for my 28th week appointment where I get to drink a "yummy" sugar drink to test my glucose levels. I can't wait for that... ha! And then, surprisingly enough, we're back at the doctor every two weeks! 


I'm at week 22 right now so we've officially passed the halfway point! And it's all going to be a downhill slide from this point out I think! And June will be here before we know it! 

This past weekend, Austin and I headed to Target to start a baby registry. This wasn't as much fun as I was expecting it to be and maybe I was just over-thinking everything. There were so many choices and options that I felt overwhelmed at times! Austin kept telling me that people will buy what they know works and not to worry. He's probably right... And then there just wasn't a huge gender neutral selection. A lot of things they did have for gender neutral were out of stock so we couldn't add them to the registry at the store, we'll have to go online to do it. Just a little frustrating, but not enough to change our minds on finding out the sex of the baby! :) But it was nice to have that task done. 

In other non-baby updates... We went to Minnesota this past weekend to spend some time with my family. I also went to a bridal shower for a very good friend of mine and it was great to see her as well. I've been busy at work trying to schedule high school visits and soon I'll be traveling quite a bit for my spring travels. Austin is of course keeping very busy with solo/ensemble contest coming up and has been spending many late nights working on a variety of things - which never pleases me when all I want to do is cuddle! :) 

Otherwise I think that's about it for us right now! Thanks for reading!
