Alright, now that I have started this blog I have been horrible at keeping up with it. I have a few moments right now I figure I better do something!!! October 7th was the first exam appointment with my Clinic and I was able to see the baby for the first time! It was very exciting. So far all is good. All of my blood tests came back the way they were supposed to and she said the baby has a good strong heart beat. I didn't get to hear it yet, but I suppose that will be at the next apt. I only gained 1/2 a lb since the first apt on the 22nd, which is very good. She said I was 10 weeks and 2 days, due May 5. Cinco De Mayo! Also the month of our anniversary which I think is sweet. I am scheduled for another appointment in 4 weeks. They seem to want to see us sooner at this office than I remember from when I was pregnant with T, but in the end I suppose that's good. We can't yet tell the sex, obviously, but at about 17-20 weeks we will certainly be finding that out. We finally tried to tell Tristyn that there was a baby in Mommy's tummy and I think he got it, but am not sure yet. It hasn't come up since. I am feeling better and a little less sick everyday, but still have very bad moments. I will be very excited when this first trimester is over!
Tristyn is doing well, he has a little cough this week but over all healthy and happy as always. We went to the City on Friday with Cousin Danielle from California and Aunt Melanie, he lasted thru the whole thing. He got to ride on the train and the subway, Most likely his favorite parts of the day, as well as anytime he got to be out of the stroller. We went to ground zero, which in most senses is still a big creepy hole in the ground, but its busy, busy all around it now. We also walked thru The Village some. We stopped and got my favorite
pizza from SBarro's on Canal Street and saw all the people walking with bags from all the crazy clothing shops. We both passed out at 9 that night from not taking a nap during the day, but it was much fun.
Rob was out this weekend at a fishing tourny with Joe in Long Beach. They were very tired and smelly when came home. We went out with them and had Pizza on the Beach Saturday night. It was a fun evening. Very peaceful and serene.
