Before Easter, we stopped at the aquarium. Aria had fun, and loved seeing all the colorful fish!
After her nap, we went outside and Aria got to fill a basket with all the goodies we hid!
This is the facial response to the question "Are you ready to eat your Easter chocolate?"words fail me, though it is mostly my doing. she is her daddy's daughter!
Tonight we went to get a 3D sonogram for fun and to confirm the baby's sex. We had our doubts with the 20 week appt just because the tech was slow and he ran out of time to show us what WE wanted to look at. That and he laughed at me when I asked "so, I'm not going to give birth to a girl, right?" He just wasn't reassuring. Plus we didn't even get pictures to share! Doing the 3D/4D can be quite pricey, so we stuck with the simple package and we got to see his "package" (haha). We also got a couple pictures out of it. Here they are:
The past couple weeks Aria has been great about waking up and asking to go potty...at 3AM or 5AM or even 7AM! I've been noticing dry diapers coming off in the morning too. Saturday night, Aria begged us not to put a diaper on her for bed and we complied. She's done great the past two nights. I don't mind waking up with her in the middle of the night to use the potty because she goes right back to sleep and I'm usually up around the same time using it too now! I find it a little funny that my 6mo pregnant bladder = my 2.5yr old bladder, haha. I assume as the weeks go on I should get worse and hopefully she'll get better about holding it longer through the night :-)
third leg? yep, that's what the ultrasound techs told us about Aria (hamburger=vagina), and this one (third leg=penis). it's a boy! though I would have preferred they use the actual names, considering we are adults not children. I mean come on - for Aria's ultrasound, the woman told us she didn't see a turtle! I mean. come. on. these terms are stupid jokes, and makes me feel like they're trying to create a friendly atmosphere and all it really does is make an awkward moment for me where i'm not sure if they're talking down to me or not. and then i just feel sorry for them that they are not comfortable enough with the human body to say the correct terms in front of other people.
/rant off
IT'S A BOY!
on a side note, if anyone wants a cool white VW GTI, let me know! (this is a just joke, I have no idea where I could get a free one - in my garage? YEAH RIGHT)
