Happy day!

I should have probably written about this a couple days ago, but I've been a little distracted with worrying about Asher. Which by the way, I love the priesthood!!! Asher got a blessing last night which he screamed bloody murder all the way through, but he slept through the night until about 4:30 am, and then fell back asleep, and he doesn't feel hot to the touch anymore, and his face is a lot less blotchy! If you had seen how bad he was yesterday, you would know what a miracle that really is...he was scary! So I'm hopeful we are on the up side of this nastiness he has had. I miss my happy little man.

So my prenatal visit went great! I decided to be a part of this study where they monitor my thyroid during each visit. I qualified because mine I guess is a hair low, and they are starting to link low thyroid to low IQ babies. The downside is I have to get poked to get my blood drawn each time which isn't my favorite, but the upside, is my baby will get an IQ test :) Somethings are probably better not to know, but it's interesting anyway. When the doctor was doing the ultrasound, he kept laughing, because the baby was moving so much, he couldn't get a heartbeat. You could just see him/her waving its arms, kicking its legs, and doing somersaults in there. Dr. Bierer was like, "you can tell this baby is a Skelton." He knows us so well :) I have only gained 4 lbs this month (10 total), so I was pretty happy about that. Not that it will make a bit of difference in the end when I deliver and I still have the weight equivalent of a jr. high kid to loose, but that's okay :) I am going to enjoy what will most likely be the last week I can wear my normal jeans and binge myself silly on the mixed berry gelato that mysteriously found its way into my freezer (divine!).
