24 Weeks

I went to the doctor yesterday and everything is going great. The baby's heart rate was between 142-150 and my blood pressure was good. Things are right on track and we get our next sonogram July 6th in Peoria. I did gain 6 pounds since my last appointment - maybe that's from my mandatory nightly milk shakes!! (Who doesn't like ice cream when it's 100 degrees outside??) Other than that, I'm still feeling great and I'm really feeling the baby kick and move now. It's the greatest feeling ever!!
I'm just trying to stay cool and hope I can make it through the summer without swelling up like a balloon. Any suggestions...let me know.

Belly Pic

This is an unofficial belly picture but you can see how I'm growing. I also got to see my friend Sarah who moved to Florida, so it was wonderful.

Happy 2nd Anniversary Weekend

Matt and I celebrated our 2nd Anniversary this past weekend up in the Suburbs. We stayed at a great hotel and went to the Arlington Racetrack. That was a blast because we met some friends of my aunt and uncles that race horses there. Their horse "Nuzzle" won the 3rd race and we got to get our picture taken in the Winner's Circle. It was a great weekend all around!!
