October 2008 - Another BOY!

10/17/08 - Well we had an ultrasound today called an NTS. It's to check for possibilities of abnormalities (chromosome disorders etc.). They test went fine. They do it in coordination with blood tests and I should have the results by next Friday. Preliminary results looked good and normal.

On another note - we were able to find out the sex! I am only 13 weeks, but I have heard of several people that found out. So drum rolllllllll...IT'S ANOTHER BOY! I am still in a bit of shock. I was SURE it was a girl. It has kind of settled in now and I am pretty excited. Think of the money I will save in the long run....no wedding dresses...no prom dresses.....no makeup....no nail appts or tanning salons......no short skirts....or periods.......it's starting to look very positive for having 2 boys!! LOL

Logan is kicking butt walking now. He picked it up and mastered it very quickly! He stands up by himself now without having to pull up on something. It's pretty cool to watch him!!!

10/3/08 - Logan had a long day today, but he did GREAT with the tubes surgery. We were up at 630 this morning and at the Dr office by 700am. Logan did a lot better than I thought he would with not being able to eat or drink. All the nurses and grandparents kept him pretty pre-occupied. The Dr came in and told us about the surgery and how quick it would go. He left my arms at 825 and was back in my arms at 840. It was VERY quick. He did great!!! He was really fussy and disoriented when we went to recovery with him, but FOOD seemed to make that all better. LOL The nurse was laughing at him because he wasn't supposed to eat too much in case he got sick, but it was ALL he wanted was to eat and drink. Once we got home he took a 2 hour nap after he played. Our schedule has been really off today, but he was such a big boy! I am so proud of him. Now we have to use ear plugs with any water for the next 9-12 months depending on how long the tubes stay in his ears. Hopefully this is our one and only time to have to get tubes. We go back for a follow up in 2 weeks. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers for little Logan.

We went yesterday and heard the hearbeat of the new baby. It is so comforting to hear that! I go back in 2 weeks for a new ultrasound that they do between 12-13 weeks. I can not wait to see my baby!!!!
