Yesterday, I had a doctor’s appointment for the baby. And I am now officially in the 2nd trimester! (I also officially have swimmer’s ear. Ah, so that is why my ear has been hurting for weeks!) The doctor couldn’t find the baby’s heartbeat so we got to have another ultrasound I was secretly happy that we got to see the baby again – even though it was scary for 1/2 a second when she couldn’t find the heartbeat. Plus, Bill was there and he was able to see the baby wiggling around for the first time.

I took a picture of the ultrasound picture – not the best quality but if you look close you can see the baby.

We had a fun, relaxing day today. Bill got up with Will and let me take an afternoon nap! We laid around this morning, ate lunch at McDonald’s and perused Lowe’s for our next home improvement project. This afternoon we played, played, played. Will was such a busy boy. This morning he collected several important things in the empty clothes basket: Disney World book, toothbrush holder, thermometer case, soap dish, and hairbrush. He pushed these things around in the basket all day. While Bill was grilling dinner Will pushed the basket to the middle of the yard, dump all his “treasures” out, push the basket back to the house then turn around collect the “treasures” and then repeat.
