The doctor gave us an option to an ultrasound/blood work that would screen for things like down syndrome. Since it was covered by insurance we took ’em up on the offer. Well, the appointment is today at 10:30am. I am really excited for the sonogram part – I can’t wait to see you again and make sure you’re doing all right in there. Other than a few stomach cramps and some tiredness, at this point, it’s really hard to “tell” I am pregnant. And since I tend to be a worry wart – you’ll get first hand experience of that in a few months – I like all the reassurance I can get. So, today is an exciting day!

You father and I threw around some different name options this weekend. So far we both like Carter and Zach(ary) if you’re a boy…& Nicole and Hailey if you’re a girl. That decision will be easier to narrow down once we know for sure what you are – hopefully sometime in early January.
