tired

Tired today after a big week.

Went to see the movie New Moon with uni. We are both hooked after having watched Twilight on video and then reading the book.

Today was pretty much taken up with movie going with a little bit of Xmas shopping for Kt afterwards.

Then just enough time to eat lunch, have further discussions about the movie and then Uni went to collect Kt from school while I got the house looking respectable (OK well I just got the kitchen looking respectable ... the house needs more than 15 minutes work).

This morning I stayed for prep to year 3 parade and watched Kt and Andrea receive certificates for being Word Wall wizards!!!

They were the only 2 prep kids who got them, many grade 1 students did too, but it was quite a big deal that some prep kids did too.

My wonderful girl had a great big smile on her face! So did her mum!

This evening Uni bought us all ice creams to celebrate!

Her certificate is hanging up on the wall.

Yesterday I had my antenatal appointment (first one) at the hospital. I got to hear the heartbeat again. It took longer for the midwife to find it than my doctor.

First she tried down low under my bellybutton (not a sound ... complete silence) then she went up and to the right of my bellybutton (my left, her right) and she got it.

I felt a "surprised" movement as she positioned the doppler so I knew she was in the right place before I even heard the heartbeat.

Incidentally it was the same spot Kt and I had felt the kick during our play time a few nights back.

Baby is moving on up!!!

Just looked at my recent photos and the bump is definitely growing!

The midwife wants me to have an ultrasound to confirm my dates sometime in the coming week and then another one in about 3 weeks (around Xmas time).

Am excited and a bit worried about having an ultrasound. I am very keen to see the baby but I don't want to have too many ultrasounds and of course I don't want them to find anything wrong.
