Great Week!

Today we're officially 15 weeks 4 days pregnant!  Yes, I count the days.... 

It's been a great week to say the least!  Monday was Valentines day which was celebrated with dinner and a movie on Sunday night.  Monday night Jeff had some chocolates, a particularly large bag of cheese puffs and some sweet notes waiting for me when I got home.  We enjoyed an evening of leftovers and our favorite show, House. 


Wednesday was my 28th birthday and I felt special all day thanks to all my wonderful family, friends and co-workers...especially the ones who sang to me (you know who you are)! Jeff REALLY surprised me with a baby bag I've been eyeing! Just when I thought he doesn't hear a word I say...I get this!





And today, Thursday, was just icing on the cake with a great check-up at the doctors.  Baby Mues's heartbeat is going strong (averaging 154 beats/min) and all else looks great!  Even our early screening test results came back negative which is also great news!  We're just happy all around and feel very fortunate to have had a seemingly smooth pregnancy so far. 





Next week we're 4 months! Keep posted for an updated shot of the bump and baby room!

Baby Mues Video



Today was a great day for Jeff and I.  We finally got to see our little baby!  Doctor said everything looks great and baby appears healthy.  Baby Mues is measuring exactly 13 weeks 2 days today and the due date is still August 8th! 
In the beginning of the sono, the baby was sleeping but the sonographer said if I coughed the baby would move.  It worked!  You'll notice a couple pauses in the video and this is just the doctor measuring some things.  Unfortunately, both sonographer and doctor were unable to give us a firm declaration of gender.  Boo!!  However, after seeing this sono, we think it may be a girl.  We'll know for sure in about 4 weeks.  Stand by!
