24 weeks

This week my belly is 42.5 inches around. The baby is growing a lot!

Week 23

This week has been another good week. Another doctors appointment was on Monday where we found out that there are no risks for down syndrome and whatever else the genetics tests cover. :) I got all my questions answered. It was a good visit.

Also this week we are experiencing life without cable to try to save some money. Day one is almost over and it hasn't been too bad. It forces me to play nintendo and focus on school. I am sure I will read more books too.

Here is a picture I took on Sunday Aug. 7th. My belly is getting bigger!

Week 22

Monday we went to the radiology department for a high-tech ultrasound. It was determined that it is officially a girl! :)

It was so cool to see the various aspects of Ansley. We saw her lips, eyes, stomach, kidneys, brain, nose, spine, toes and her little legs and arms. She was very active and it was making the technician mad, but it was cute. She covered her face, she got tired and sucked her thumb and stretched out a lot. The technician said she is 1 lb. 2 oz. and everything is right on track for my due date. It was a successful appointment. We got back to the doctor Monday the 8th to speak to the doctor.

Other than that, Kyle prepares for training in different places of California and I finish my last week in my Business Law class. I will start a new class either next week or the following if I get a C+ or higher grade. So far I have a B so this week I am focusing hard to keep that grade or better.

Below is just a song that makes me smile.

"Capri" by Colbie Caillat

She’s got a baby inside
And holds her belly tight
All through the night
Just so she knows
She’s sleeping so
Safely to keep
Her growing

And oh when she'll open her eyes
There'll be no surprise
That she'll grow to be
So beautifully
Just like her mother
That’s carrying

Oh Capri
She’s beauty
Baby inside she’s loving
Oh Capri
She’s beauty
There is and angel growin’ peacefully
Oh Capri
Sweet baby

And things will be hard at times
But I've learned to try
Just listening
Patiently, oh Capri
Sweet baby

Oh Capri
She’s beauty
Baby inside she’s loving
Oh Capri
Your beauty
Just like your mother
That’s carrying...Oh Capri
