New Family Member Coming Soon!

We are pleased to announce that we will be adding a little one to our family around October 13th! I have to say that I was a little more excited this time around when I found out than with Elliot. Let me explain before you think that's a rude thing to say. This time we were kind of expecting it & now that I've already been through the whole process, I'm not as scared. I had my first doctor's appointment last Thursday. Since I have different insurance, I had to use a different OB than last time. Let me just say I am not pleased with him. He's 73 & not very personable. I would switch doctors, but I will only see him 2 more times before we move & it's just not worth the hassle of changing. He first rubbed me the wrong way when I got up to go back with Lane & Elliot & the nurse informed me that kids weren't allowed, so Lane had to sit in the waiting room the entire time with her. And he also informed me that I would not get a ultrasound until I was 18 weeks. What?! That is crazy to me. At that point I'll be able to find out if it's a boy or girl. I feel you should always do ultrasounds in the beginning to make sure everything is ok with the baby. Needless to say that I left the office very upset. But there is a little good news. I looked up an ultrasound clinic nearby & was able to pay $65 to get one. Totally worth it for peace of mind. Lane & Elliot were both allowed to come in with me too. They had a huge flat screen mounted on the wall & a nice comfy bed for me to lay in so I was in heaven. The baby looks great! I could totally see what everything was on the screen too so that was cool. I'll scan the pictures when I get access to a scanner in about a week. Anyway, that's what's new with us.
