Amber meets the baby doctor

Well, today was my 16th week appointment and was Amber ever so excited to meet Dr. Sansonetti, well the wait today was long but after reading nearly all of the books in the waiting room it was our turn, she talked with the nurse about the baby and how she wanted a baby sisiter, then the nurse took my blood and of course Amber had questions about that as well. Well the moment of truth arrived and he introduced himself and she was so eager to know about all that he was talking about and all that he was about to do. Well he felt for the uterus and then the heartbeat, she stood behind him as was excited to hear the sound like a horse running, he made sure that she heard it before turning it off, then behind the table was a picture of a mother and the infant that she had just given birth too and then a little girl beside the bed, Dr. Sansonneti said to her that will be you when your new baby arrives it was so cute. We left the office and she so excited to meet him and said "He is such a nice Dr."

A camping interuption

Well after a week of almost straight rain we were glad to get a break from camping at the State Park. So on July 1st we went for an ultrasound for our first series of tests, so Amber would be able to see her little sister or brother for the first time. So their was our little one as happy as anything just a moving around she got the measurements needed and we walked away with pictures and only after Amber asked questions about how the baby eats and what it lives in, the person doing the ultrasound was great and answered Amber's questions. It's so very cool to have Amber there and show so much interest she is going to be a GREAT BIG SISTER!

Finally a date with the Doc.

Well I finally got to see Dr. Sansonetti today, wow he has not changed maybe aged a bit but I'm sure he thought the same with me, well we got to hear the babies heart and it was 133 so low but who knows, no need to spectulate at this point about what it could be, well it was still nice to see him, he so treats you like a person not just another apointment. I look forward to having him deliver this little one this time.

Ultrasound # 2 and then to see Dr. Robert

Well I had my 2nd dating ultrasound and this time Matt went with me I was so nervous and I only wanted them to see what they needed to and guess what they did excatly what they needed I was right on track but with a new due date of January 12th 2010. So no need to see Dr. Sansonetti now so I rescheduled that but at least I have a date and know where I am. Thank the lord for that.

Off to the OBGYN

Well, today was my first appointment and now a days they send you for an ultra sound to get your dating so off I went for that ultrasound and they did the internal ultrasound and we saw nothing, I was so upset I know that they have my dating wrong so I called the Dr. as soon as I got out ofthe office and went for blood work, well Dr. Sansonetti he called me that evening to say that my blood work looked great and that the dating must be off. So on the 14th I met with the nurse for the blood work and to get my welcome packaet, it all seems so sureal but I'm ready.

Today is the day

Well, Amber woke up early and wished me a Happy Mother's Day. I had nerves in my stomach just thinking about what was going to go down today. Amber proudly wore her Big Sister shirt, our first stop was at the in-laws I did not expect a huge congratulations they are just not like that, well Amber showed off her shirt and they were surprised and did congratulate us, then the brother and sister in law came and it took Amber a little while to get the courage to show off her shirt and yet we did get a congratulations. Well then we traveled to my parents I knew this was gonna be good, they had no idea that we had even been trying. Well Amber was so eager to show off her shirt. My mom and dad were both in the kitchen and she said are you ready she was so excited that she struggled to get her coat unzipped but she managed and then My mother read it and her mouth dropped open and she said NO!!! She gave Amber a hug then ran to me and hugged me and then to Matt oh my god she cried and cried and cried and then went over to my dad and said that they were gonna have another one. She was shaking and so worked up about it, it was AWESOME. It was a great surprise that made the Perfect Mother's Day. We then went over to my Grammies were the aunts and uncles were and Amber showed the shirt off over their as well. Everyone was surprised it was Awesome. The shirt was a huge hit.

See it almost slipped

Well we did some shopping then ended up meeting my parents for dinner at the bean supper and then, Amber said to my mom I have a new shirt I'm gonna wear tomorrow to show you, Oh thank god that my mother was not all on that day and said I bet you got it at the Christmas Tree Shop, Amber looked at me I hit her under the table and she said yes, then I whispered to her that is enough you have said enough. We made it through dinner and not sure why my parents did not question Amber about the big smirk on her face oh well tomorrow will be the big day.....
