Week 23 for Buggy

Can't believe it but Buggy and I are already into week 23! Time really does pass quickly when things get crazy busy. As I suppose happens often with the 2nd child, this is the first shot I have taken with Buggy whereas I started documenting with Ben at week 12:( My goal is to not make this a trend. Buggy and I have our Doc's appointment on Tue and I feel confident that my trend of losing weight is over! I had lost 10 lbs. at the last appointment which apparently is a big no-no. I guess I am pre-programed to think "YES" when there is weight-loss involved. Anyway when I get the new stats I will update.

We are really getting excited to welcome this new treasure into our crazy lives. Monkey finally noticed my increasing belly size and started poking at it tonight. It was too funny. It was almost like he was trying to deflate me:)

Happy Halloween!!!!

Baby B!!!

Here are the ultra sound pics from our appointment today. Everything went very well. The heartbeat was strong and the brain looked clear of cysts and other abnormalities which was a huge relief after Ben's scare with the choroid plexus cyst. It was so wonderful to see the baby, and finally made it feel very real! We are trying to come up with a nickname for the baby to reference to Ben and others and have come up empty handed. We have Skeletore but thought that might be slightly inappropriate, well at least I felt that way:) Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!

More pics of Ben to follow shortly. I can't believe it is already October. I have neglected my blog for far too long...
