Well, it's almost Halloween and we carved our pumpkins today!! We plan on going to the corn maze tomorrow as long as the weather permits. (fingers crossed) Shawn is on leave until November 9th and we are planning on taking a little trip for my birthday as long as our crib gets here on time. Which leads me to Dad's visit. :)
Our 16 week appointment was today and nothing too eventful went on. Checked my weight and blood pressure(which was normal) and then listened to Baby Goode. Doc said that Baby Goode sounded good even though we didn't get to hear much because of the squirming around. Blood was drawn for the quad screen which checks for signs of Downs Syndrome and neural tube defects. Our next appointment will be down in radiology at 20 weeks for the ultrasound!!!! Hopefully Baby Goode will be cooperative and show us what we are looking for so we can start saying he or she. Shawn has called the baby he from the get go so maybe he already has it right. :) Shawn and I have both been pretty sick and my poor husband tried so hard to not get me sick. We have hand sanitizer, lysol, and anti bacterial wipes in every room right now. He even slept in another room to try and not get me sick!! He is the sweetest but I still ended up in Urgent Care Monday night with Bronchitis. Woo Hoo, fun.
So, my Dad called yesterday and is planning to come and visit at the end of the month!!! He will be the first person from my family to actually come in from out of town to visit us here in Mountain Home. :) I'm trying to think of things to do while he is here and I figure one day we can take him out to the flight line to see the F-15's. After that I am not sure. Hopefully he doesn't get too bored here in Mountain Home since he is used to having lots to do at home.
