Baby

We had our four month check-up today with the doctor in Fort Walton. She found the baby’s heart beat instantly — sounded something like rat-a-tat-tat, and 150-152 (old wives tales, anyone?) beats per minute when she showed it to me, 140 when she showed it to Nathanael. The ultrasound is scheduled for next month. We’ve decided not to find out the sex of the child. N. says the birth will be a surprise we’ll never regret, and that no child of his will be dressed in the stale and repetitious gender-locked pastels, anyway. I’m becoming horribly curious. It’s like having next years Christmas presents sitting on the piano in the living room, exquisitely wrapped in shining paper, begging to be opened. My impatience knows no bounds.

I just discovered your blog through Technorati and thought I would say hello. Congrats on the marriage and baby! Shauna and I are expecting our first in early May (it’s a girl).

The funny thing about finding your blog is that I was just thinking about you last week and wondering what ever happened to you. When I mentioned to Shauna that I had found your blog, she said she was also just thinking of you a week or so ago and wondering where you were, what you were doing, etc. Strange.

Anyway, it’s nice seeing what is going on with you.

Bluestars!

Nice to see you again. It’s been, wow, what, four years?

I moved back to Minneapolis after the summer of 2002, and got married and moved to Florida last July. The due date is August 3.

Congratulations! May is soon!

old wives tale says boy. has the hair on your legs been growing faster or slower since you got pregnant?

I have no idea. I suppose I could wait out a week and see, but I think I would make someone roll his eyes at me.
