Ultrasound.

We got to see the baby today! It's always exciting to see. It's too early to tell the sex yet but he thought the baby looked good. Of course they have to go over the pictures to be sure though.

Ava has 2 names for the baby. Baby Pederson and Baby Super Why! Her favorite show is a show on PBS called "Super Why!" so that's where that came from.

I have been feeling really good. Tired obviously, but over all, good. I'm looking forward to finding out what we are having. Baby names seem to be a bit tougher this time. I'm enjoying looking though.

On May 7th I have an appointment with my oncologist just as a check-up and to discuss what to do after I have the baby. Then my next appointment with my OB is May 13th. Of course we will keep you all updated.

Fun at the circus!

Bjorn, Lia, Ava and I went to the circus on Sunday. It was a lot of fun. I was kind of worried how Ava would do but she was great. It lasted almost 3 hours and Ava sat and watched most of it. I think at times Lia and I were a little more excited than her. They had elephants (1 HUGE one and 4 smaller ones), a lion, tigers, a big snake, a dog and ponies. We all enjoyed it and I'm glad Lia was able to come with us.

Ava and Mommy at the elephants.

Ava kicked back in her seat eating popcorn.

It's hard to tell in this picture but this elephant was HUGE!

Due Date!

I had my first doctors appointment yesterday. My due date is October 30th. It was a long appointment. I was scheduled for 9am but did not get out until 11:30. They found that my blood pressure is really high. It's been high ever since I had Ava but never this high. It was 144/87. They ended up doing an EKG on me. I haven't heard the results yet but I'm hoping all is well. I have to go back in 3 weeks to be checked again and for an ultrasound. If my blood pressure goes up any higher I will be put on medication. I'm hoping it wont come to that but we'll see.

Other than that I've been feeling pretty good. Baby names are running through my head! Can't wait to find out what it is. That's all I have for now. Until next time.....
