7 Quick Takes Friday - April 26, 2013


--- 1 ---

This is my first Quick Takes in over a month. Oops. I'm going to chalk it up to busy Fridays combined with pregnancy fatigue.

I'm 16w3d today, but the pregnancy fatigue and occasional nausea is still hanging on. I haven't felt the need to take a (generic) Zofran in a few weeks, so that's something.

A local pro-life pregnancy center asked for pregnant volunteers on Facebook -- they needed to train their new u/s technician in 3-D ultrasounds. I volunteered and went there on Wednesday -- and promptly lost the pictures later that night. *facepalm* I think they fell out of my purse when I was at the grocery store. Despite two trips there to retrace my steps, and talking to Customer Service, they haven't turned up. I can't figure out what happened to them. So, all I have is this picture-of-a-picture that I texted to Collin:


He or she looked perfect! His/her heartrate was 152bpm, exactly was it was during my OB appointment yesterday. And we scheduled our official anatomy ultrasound for May 17, so I'll get more pictures then. (We aren't finding out the sex of the baby until birth, regardless, by the way.)

These are super fast quick takes because I need to get some stuff ready for our camping trip this weekend. Collin's dad is leaving for North Dakota next week, so this is our last chance to spend some time with him. We're going to Roosevelt Lake again, our favorite place to camp. Should be fun but, oh my, I have a lot to do before we leave this afternoon! (And I'm working from home today, so I have to get the bulk if it done during my lunch break.)

Who needs a jack-in-the-box when you have a Violet-in-the-box??

I borrowed all my newborn-sized clothes to the friend-of-a-friend last summer, and I got them all back today! Hooray! Looking at all those tiny clothes makes me so anxious for October.
