What are they doing to my child!!!?

Yesterday I took HP to the doctor for a quick check up on her UTI (she is all better now). Before we left she had to pee in a cup, get her finger pricked, be tested for TB AND get 4 additional immunizations. All of which was completely unexpected and so I hadn't prepared her (or myself) for it. She was a trooper to say the least. Yes, there were tears of pure horror but she never pulled away or tried to stop the nurses who so diligently poked at her like a pin cushion. She makes me proud every day. I wanted to cry for her but I was trying hard to be her cheerleader and remind her what a "big girl" she was.

After we finally left the doc's (torture chamber)office. I took her strait to TCBY. When we walked in she pointed to the largest cup available to be filled with frozen chocolate yogurt and topped with "bunches" of cherries. The man behind the counter looked at me like a crazy lady for buying that much for such a small girl and she barely even got ten good bites in before she was full ~ but it was so worth it to see her smiling again.

Baby Check Up

I went to see my obstetrician yesterday. I have gained a couple of more pounds but so far I am staying on track. The baby was very active and has a strong heartbeat.

Hailey thinks it is funny that a baby is in my tummy and is always trying to figure out how we are gonna get it out of there.

In fact when my doctor walked into the room Hailey said "You got me out of my Mommy's tummy." To which the doctor replied "Did your Mommy tell you that?" and Hailey said "No... I just know things."

A day never goes by that she doesn't make me laugh.

My next check-up is set for June 28th. Two days before mine and Brad's birthday! We will have our gender ultrasound that day!!! I am so very excited! So far out of the four preggo people I know. 2 have been blessed with little girls and 2 have been blessed with little boys!!!! So we will tip the scale one way or the other! I can't wait!
