17 weeks and counting

Jeff and I went to the Dr. yesterday for our monthly checkup. We were informed that everything is going swimmingly! This always makes me think, "How do you know? You haven't seen the baby!" I know that this is their job and they have been doing it for a very long time, so I try not to think that very often. Well, I finally hit the 100 lbs. mark! I thought Jeff was going to do a happy dance right there in the dr.'s office. Why he has been waiting for this moment, I don't know. The baby's heartbeat was 150, right where it should be. We chose not have the triple screen test at this time. We head off to the pregnancy care center today for a free ultrasound. We're not sure how much info. they will be able to give us since they are training students. Our hopes are high that they will be able to tell us the gender. I prayed all night that everything would be in its place and forming correctly! Wish us luck!
