This past week, when I picked up Avery at school she was very excited to show me a surprise! Her teacher told me that she decided she wanted to make me a card, telling her teacher exactly what to write. I thought it was soooo sweet and thoughtful.
I have yet to post about this, but Brady is one of the names we are thinking about. Brayden would have been Avery's name if she was a boy, and Brian really likes it, but I have seen it so often lately! I think Brady is a pretty good compromise. So far, it is Brady Jennings Ash :) Jennings is Brian's dad's middle name. We both like the sound of it.
I love it that she is already thinking about her little brother.....
and speaking about her little brother, I turn 17 weeks today, yikes! My belly is really starting to poke out now, as I had Brian go in the attic to find the maternity jeans. Right now, he is about 5 ounces, and is about the size of a turnip. Brian asked me the other day, remember when you used to send me weekly emails all about the baby when you were pregnant with Avery??? Oh yeah, oops, sorry hun, this time I just have so much going on. Don't worry I will be sure to look up the fruit/veggie our baby is, and let you know :)
I actually had an OB appointment yesterday just to check on the little guy. Everything is right on track, his heart rate was around 145, and so far I have gained about 3.5 lbs. I will schedule my anatomy ultrasound within the next couple of weeks, which I know Avery is going to be so excited about seeing him on screen. I am finally feeling much better these days, despite being busy as ever with school. But there is a light at the end of the tunnel, only 4 months to go!!! Yay!!!
