Sunday: nap

After being so tired after church, Isaac decided he didn't really need a nap.  He feel asleep during dinner, an hour and a half before his normal bed time.  We put him to bed, hoping that he won't wake back up.

Little vampire

Isaac has not been enjoying the bright sun that we've been having lately, and car rides tended to look like this:



(Since he has better motor skills now, he is in charge of putting the blanket up and down.)

So I got him some sunglasses, and now he looks like this:



We tried them out on one ride and they worked quite well. And they stayed on the whole time!

Friday: dinner

Tonight was the first time in a long time that we've gone out for dinner as a family (just the three of us).  It was nice...and delicious.

(Although don't get me wrong, we've had a lot of carry-out lately.  Hopefully we can reduce that a bit soon though!)

Thursday: groceries

I've noticed that when I'm pregnant I tend to buy things that I would otherwise pass over.  They are things that I still would eat (and enjoy) as a non-pregnant person, but I just don't buy them.  Here are a few of them:

Juice
Raisin Bran
Yogurt covered raisins
Carrot cake
Egg salad
More juice
Sour candy

Wednesday: continued

Today was an extremely nice day.  Following the ultrasound I had the day to myself, with the exception of a short appointment in the afternoon.  It was raining and I didn't have any significant plans.  Ahhh.

I waited for Ben to get home to tell Isaac that he was going to have a brother so that we could both laugh at how underwhelmed Isaac would be.  And that's just how it was.  Isaac has trying to get Ben to chase a paper fish that [Isaac] was holding and didn't care about the baby at all.  (Yeah, we did a lot of chase this afternoon...I was chased by the paper fish, I chased the giraffe, Isaac chased the giraffe, frog chased the giraffe, giraffe chased frog, giraffe chased sticker.)  We told him again a bit later but it just seemed to go over his head.

Wednesday:ultrasound

This morning was our 20 week ultrasound.  The baby was moving the whole time!  Measuring in at 21 weeks it's a little earlier than my official due date but spot on for what I think my due date should be.

The profile (head and chest)

Straight on (face and upraised arms)

Feet

And we found out it's a boy!  I'm rather excited about that, but Isaac will be (somewhat) distraught.

Tuesday: calculording

It's a math app. Ben tells Isaac what numbers he thinks they should add/subtract/multiply and Isaac agrees (every time). I have a cute video too, but have forgotten my YouTube password and am in bed so you just get a picture.
