Good, Strong Heartbeat

I'm 15 weeks and had a check up with the doctor today.  Everything went smooth and thankfully uneventful.  The doctor checked the baby's heartbeat with the doppler radar (that's what I call it, anyway), and we not only heard a strong, fast heartbeat, but a very bouncy baby too!  The doctor told me there was a very distinct sound of the baby actually kicking off my belly and moving around.  It was very neat, and so cute to hear!  I have a feeling we will have our hands full and get plenty of exercise running after this baby! 

Johnathan and I have neglected baby bump pictures, but not on purpose.  I think about it during the day, and then we get so busy at night we both completely forget about it!  There is a bump there, and it's getting bigger by the day.  I really will take a picture soon because I am anxious to see the difference in how big I was with Anna Rae at this stage. 

Maternity clothes still suck.  I'm not wearing any dress pants anymore... partly because I have to unbutton them when I sit down, and partly because I'm protesting this COLD weather in spring!  I can't wait to just throw on a sun dress and go.

Our next appointment is the big one! April 18th we will hopefully find out the sex of the baby, and I can't wait!!!
