Last Week

Was awesome.

• Went to the doctor on Monday
• Dan heard our baby's heartbeat for the first time
• that was the strongest heartbeat I had heard so far
• I asked if she would give us a quick ultrasound so Dan could see baby
• she was delighted to do so
• we got to see her little fingers and toes
• and her little face
• she kept opening and closing her mouth while on camera
• show off
• it was magical
  
• bought fabric for the baby quilt with my mom
• cut out all the squares for the quilt
• Dan would step in and cut when my back started hurting

• started putting all the squares together
• I watched as Mom sewed all the rows

• I wish I could sew
• someday I am buying a sewing machine
• successfully got the top of the quilt to match the same size as the back
• couldn't be more excited about it because it is a-dor-able

• went to the movies with the parents
• the movie was okay
• sitting next to my mom and heckling was priceless
• Dan made a man cave in the den
• and watched a lot of soccer
• and basketball
• and played lots of video games
• he was a happy boy
• ate good food
• overdosed on the Food Network
• relaxed and spent time together

It was perfect.

Here is a random belly shot from the car ride to Wichita. It cracked me up that my belly covered the seat belt.
Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I hope your day is splendid.
