Today was my ultrasound appointment, & let me tell you, it was a rough morning. Hila came to pick me up around 10 this morning, after she had to go & get Desiree's car seat from our car at Nick's work. We started off the morning by going to the Social Security Office so I can get a new Social Security Card & a letter stating that I've applied to get a new one. When my number finally got called it was like 10:50 & my ultrasound appointment was at 11:15, good thing it didn't take me long to get the application put in. So, off we headed to Salmon Medical Center Imaging Department for my ultrasound. When we got there Hila took a pregnant tummy picture for pre-ultrasound, I guess for perspective.
So, we get inside & I go to check in with the receptionist; here's the best news of the day (if you could hear me, you'd be able to hear the sarcasm in my voice) apparantly I wasn't scheduled for an appointment, today or any other future date, at the Salmon Medical Center! The receptionist called another Imaging office linked with the Doctor's Clinic to see if maybe I got my information mixed up, well, I wasn't scheduled there either; so Hila, Desiree & I went back up to the Doctor's Clinic to see what was going on & how we could fix it. It turns out my Doctor's assistant did make me an appointment at Salmon Medical Center, but somebody over there screwed up & didn't put me in the system. Well, the receptionist was finally able to get me an ultrasound appointment it was with a place called AMI in East Bremerton at 2:30 (at least I was able to get it fixed & still able to be seen today). So, we went back to my house & layed Desiree down for a nap (she was being a very rotten little girl), I did the dishes & Hila went to the store to pick up the last of the ingredients for the cookies we had planned to make. When Hila got back we got to work on our Peanut-butter Blossoms, they turned out really yummy!!
There's Hila putting them on the rack to cool (I'm a little ghetto, I don't have a cooling rack so we used upside down pizza pans). While we made the second batch of cookies we also cooked Velveeta Shells & Cheese for lunch, it was rather yummy. The day was certainly looking brighter :). After we ate our lunch & all the cookies were done we had to leave for AMI for my ultrasound appointment. Yay, no repeats of this morning; I was able to get in to get my Ultrasound done. The nurse who did my ultrasound informed me that I'm 27 weeks & 2 days along. Wow were my calculations WAY off!! All of the baby's measurements & estimated due date are as follows...oh & my ultrasound pictures. For those of you who don't know where to look for what on one of these things, my estimated due date is 12/20/2008 or 1/19/2009 (I know I can only read a little of it, couldn't begin to tell you what the baby's measurements for it's head & such are).
IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!

wooohooo!!!!!!!!! congratulations!!!
wow! i can't believe how far along you are! and definately congratulations!!! now you don't have to buy a whole new wardrobe! i think you should name the baby katherine.
My dad has already put in his input for the baby's name. Love you Christina!
Thank you very much Katherine & Julie (I love you too Hila). As far as names go, Nick & I have sort of started the discussion of them, not too deeply though; mostly just running names by one another in passing as we think of them. Although I am rather fond of Emily Nicole (which is what my Dad wants us to name her), & I'll be sure to tell Nick you're opinion too Elka :)
grats! btw, the edd aua means the due date that it appears to be by the size of the baby in the ultrasound picture
edd LMP means due date based on last menstrual period. (graphic i know right, but I know my stuff.. been there, done that)
not that far off honestly ;)
Hey I doubt you remember me. It's Heather, one of Hila's friends, aka Mr. Hanson's daughter. Anyway, the shirt you're wearing, isn't that from Curundu Middle??? I have that shirt.
Congrats on girl #2!
Congrats! I love having two girls. The best part is you can reuse clothes!
That was really good news when I realized that too, of course I only have clothes from about 18 months & up (& come to think of it I think most of the clothes I do have are probably for around 2 years). But at least I don't have to buy more clothes when she reaches that age. Thank you very much you guys.
