appointment update

My appointment went great! we saw our little munchkin!! he/she got so much bigger! its amazing.. saw its little heartbeat and heard it too! 185 bpm! it was pure magic!!! they drew 11 vials of blood for a complete prenatal work up, and genetic testing... we come back in 3 weeks for another ultrasound and to test for d/s. so far, all is great! baby is measuring right on schedule... it even moved! we saw it move around in there! i was sobbing like a little baby! hehe... it was a great appointment and i am so happy :)

baby purchases

I am so thrilled that we have friends with kids and friends of friends with children. Instead of spending thousands of dollars on brand new items that our child will grow out of before we blink, we bought an amazing stroller set and car seat from some friends. The items are in IMPECCABLE condition. They look brand spankin' new! the crazy thing is, the woman we got it from, has incredibly expensive taste and shes a bit of a neatfreak which worked out in our favor. The stroller with a ton of accessories that we got plus an infant car seat cost us a little over $500.00... everything we bought was originally valued at $1,400. Not bad eh? we saved a ton of moola to spend on future baby necessities and the items we bought are so amazing! it was a little surreal to imagine that come november, there will be a little person occupying the empty little stroller! AHHHHHHHHH!
