Baltimore

This last weekend Matt and I traveled to Baltimore for his high school friends wedding. We arrived on Friday evening so that we could go sight seeing on Saturday. We went to the flag house which is where the American flag was made. We also went to the American Visionary Art Museum which was pretty cool. It wasn't your typical art museum. It had a lot of pop art in it.

Sunday was Ben and Sarah's wedding. It was a beautiful ceremony. The entire weekend that we were there it was overcast and rainy but only during the ceremony was it clear and sunny. Then about 45 minutes after the ceremony was done it started to rain again. We had a great time visiting with friends and dancing the night away.

Doctor's Visit

We went to get our 20 week scan today and got to see our little baby. It was amazing all of the things that we got to see. We got to see the top of the baby's head. We got to see the diaphram, kidneys and the four chambers of the heart. We got to see all of the bones in the body and they all look very good. Our little one looks pretty healthy. The technician told us that the baby weights approximately 14 ounces right now. We saw the baby kick and suck on its thumb. It was truly amazing. Here are a few glimpses of our baby.

Update on Daisy

Starting on Friday Daisy was walking and putting weight on her leg that she was previously holding up. She was fine for the entire weekend and we called the vet today and she told us that the only reason that we would have the surgery was because the patella tendon wouldn't go back in on its own. She said that since it went back in we don't have to have the surgery. YEAH!! We just have to know that it will continue to pop in and out on its own for the rest of her life but it doesn't hurt her.

HOCKEY!!

Matt and I had the opportunity to go with our friends Kevin and Sara to a Detroit Red Wings game. They were playing the Phoenix Coyotes. The game was pretty exciting and was tied for most of it. The Detroit Red Wings won in overtime.

Doctors appointment.

We had another doctors appointment today. The doctor said that I am measuring right on schedule. The baby was very active while the doctor was trying to get a good heart beat. We finally got the baby to sit still for a few seconds and the heart rate was in the 14os. The doctor said that everything is looking good. THREE MORE WEEKS TIL WE FIND OUT THE GENDER!!! Then we can start shopping!!

UPDATE on DAISY

Daisy's surgery has been officially scheduled for March 2oth. Then she will be on restricted play for 8-12 weeks. Buster and Daisy are very sad about this outcome. The good thing is Daisy will be off of restricted play in time to run around her backyard when we move to Indiana.
