She passed! She is healthy, has everything where is should be, nothing out of the ordinary seen! I am thrilled. I never knew how nervous you can get until you have a baby growing inside of you, what a nervous wreck I've become. I guess this is what all mothers talk about... how they are constantly worrying and always on edge. I'm just so happy she is healthy. I've attached quite a few of the ultrasound pics below.
I've definitely been feeling her, it's very low... not where I was expecting to feel the flutters but the ultrasound technician said it's because of the way she's positioned. It's her legs kicking me towards the crotch... ouch, when that happens... it's exactly what they call it - LIGHTING CROTCH! She gets me in that cervical nerve or whatever and it's like a jolt down there. I wonder if that's how it feels when a guy gets punched down there, lol. At least it goes away quickly.
What else happened this week? We went to an abstract "golf leaf" painting ?class? I hate to call it a class, even though that's what they advertised, because they basically gave you paint and a few simple tips and said "GO". I mean, I get it's ABSTRACT and everyone will be doing something different, but yeah... very hands off. I've attached a picture of the one I painted. It's more than likely going in the nursery since it's got similar colors to the theme.
Oh yeah, my tooth. I forgot to update that. All is well... $900 later and I am fit for a permanent crown. I have a temporary one in now and thankfully ZERO pain! Dental work is so expensive. Not to get all political... but somethings got to give around here! I'm just glad my blood sugar numbers are getting back to normal, it was definitely elevated from the pain and stress. I still find that fascinating that you can raise your blood sugar just with stress and pain alone! I am proof of that.
I guess that's about all for now. I won't have too much excitement for next week to share (unless something surprising comes up) but the week after I will be in Connecticut! Yay! I can't wait. I know, I know... it's been mentioned in every post since I planned the visit... but I am just beside myself with excitement to see all my loved ones.
In the meantime, I am going to go back to soothing little Zoey with the lullaby I've picked out: Bob Marley's "Three Little Birds"... and it goes a little something like this:

Don't worry about a thing 'Cause every little thing gonna be alright Singing' don't worry about a thing 'Cause every little thing gonna be alright Rise up this mornin' Smiled with the risin' sun Three little birds Pitch by my doorstep Singin' sweet songs Of melodies pure and true Saying', (this is my message to you) Singing' don't worry 'bout a thing 'Cause every little thing gonna be alright Singing' don't worry (don't worry) 'bout a thing 'Cause every little thing gonna be alright Rise up this mornin' Smiled with the risin' sun Three little birds Pitch by my doorstep Singin' sweet songs Of melodies pure and true Sayin', this is my message to you Singin' don't worry about a thing, worry about a thing, oh Every little thing gonna be alright, don't worry Singin' don't worry about a thing, I won't worry "'Cause every little thing gonna be alright (2x)
Love the lullaby choice. It always puts me at ease , I can imagine how nice it will be for Zoey to hear it sung by Mama <3
