Baby Boy

We had our anatomy scan ultrasound on Thursday and it went really well. Because my sweet little niece has a heart defect and some other things, the tech took extra time checking my baby's heart and brain. His heart looks beautiful and everything looks great with his brain. There were also no signs of cleft lip. It is such a relief to know that he is healthy as far as we can possibly tell. Braelyn loved seeing her baby brother on the TV. She kept saying he was "so cute" and "so sweet." She will pull my shirt and say "open him" then will listen to him do somersaults or swimming. Hopefully this love will continue once baby brother is actually here. I have officially hit 21 weeks, so a little more than half way there. I feel like I am in my third trimester though. I have no energy or motivation to do anything. I just want to nap. I am getting uncomfortable, so I have a hard time getting to sleep and staying asleep. Hopefully that will change soon, or it is going to be a long 4 1/2 months. We took Braelyn to the Dinosaur Park on Saturday. It was her reward for doing such a good job with potty training, plus on Friday she went poop in the potty. Then yesterday she told me she needed to go poop in the potty, so we are making progress on that front!

We celebrated our 4th anniversary last night. Nothing fun, just dinner at a pizza buffet and a movie at home. We even had Braelyn with us all night until we put her to bed. We are having a date night with Aaron and Kinnley this weekend when they are up, so hopefully that one can be a child-free night. Other than that nothing is really going on with us. We're kind of boring :-P Have a great day! Oh by the way, we caught our mischievous little mouse, and we haven't seen any more since, so hopefully we are done with them.
