4 months already

Today marks 16 weeks...I cannot believe that I am already 4 months along. It seems like we just found out! We had an another appointment on March 13th and we were able to hear the baby's heartbeat. It was moving around so much that the doctor had to chase it around. She estimated that the heartbeat was around 140 bpm, nice and strong. We found out that we will have an ultrasound at our next appointment April 11. This is the appointment that we get to find out what we are having. We decided that we want to know! The other exciting news is that one of our doctors just bought a 3-D ultrasound machine, we are pretty sure he will use that at the next appointment. The images on the 3-D machine are so much clearer...you can see so much more than the traditional ultrasounds.

Other than baby news...things have been finally slowing down. Cheerleading is finishing up, so I will have a break from that. I was officially promoted to a Study Abroad Advisor as of Feb. 16th. So far I am enjoying the job change. I was even sent to a 3 day conference in Bellingham, WA. I was also asked to go to China, but because I couldn't get the recommended imunizations because of the pregnancy my doctor said it probably wouldn't be a good idea.

Chris is also slowing down at work. He has finished with basketball/wrestling season and is now working with spring sports. This seems to be the easiest load for him.
