85 percent sure it is a GIRL!

Here are the pictures of our first ultrasound! The technician was 85% sure we have a little girl. We got to see all four chambers of her heart, two arms, two legs, elbows, knees and little pigs. According to the measurements, she put our due date at December 9, give or take ten days. Dr. King had said December 6, so they are close. Heart rate was around 138 and the little girl was very active. Apparently she did not care for being roused from a nap! She must take that from her mom.

Abby and Callie

Say hello to the loudest and nosiest cats on the planet. They talk and fight with each other at 3am at the foot of the bed and under the bed; they splash all the water in their water bowls onto the floor; they open closet and pantry doors; they bang on closet doors at 5am until we wake up to feed them; and they barge in on us while we are in the bathroom. Jealous?

Well, we've been making improvements to our home since the day we moved into it. Last year, the big project was tearing up our unforgettable pink carpet and replacing it with lovely hardwood floors. Our most recent project has been painting our living room, dining room, and hallway. We also bought some new curtains. It has definitely changed the room, to say the least. We love it!

Exciting Friday Night...

We are spending the evening at home. Friday nights in Harrisville are uneventful to say the least. Jenny is making brownies and cookies for our church's "Helping Hands" free dinner and I am preparing for a long day tomorrow helping with the Harrisville High School Alumni Parade and activities.

Doctor Appointment - We will update when we get home!

Tuesday, July 21, was our third doctor's appointment. The baby's little heart is beating rapidly at 141 beats per minute. Weight, measurements, and all the above seem to be going well. The baby and I are both growing more everyday! Our first ultrasound is on Tuesday, July 28 at 6:00 p.m. If everything goes as planned, we should be finding out if we are having a little boy or a little girl. Either way, we are blessed!
