YAWN!!!!!

My first ultrasound is Friday!!! Only two more days...

We had our initial consultation last week; Quinn and I talked with the nurse for about 1.5 hours, and I think I still had questions when we left. They took seven vials of blood to check "my levels" and I should know how everything looks by Friday.

I am a big fan of http://www.babycenter.com/. It is a great resource for the "inquisitive" like me. I am now 7.5 weeks along. My "little bean" has doubled in size since last week and is about the size of a blueberry... It doesn't seem like much, I know. The picture above shows about what the bean looks like right now -- a little more like a sea creature than a person at this point, but she'll lose her tail! ;-)

The biggest symptom I am experiencing: EXTREME fatigue! I feel like I could fall asleep mid-sentence! My thoughts are jumbled and I'm all over the place! But hey, my body has been busy this week building a pancreas and an appendix -- no wonder I am tired! ;-)

I feel awful that I haven't posted more (in over a year, at that!). I have gotten so wrapped up in being with Bennett, which is amazing, that I haven't taken the time to write about our times. Let me try to re-cap life :-). Bennett is a wonderful child. He is almost 20 months now! He is sensitive and sweet, and has a funny personality. He loves to run around with his arms behind him like he's an airplane and says several words and two-word phrases at this point: what's this, mama, dada, papa, grama, dog, horse, eyes, love you, please, thank you, sorry, bye-bye, hi, no, yes, etc. His receptive language seems superior: he understands so much! He LOVES animals; we recently started getting him the little animals from Tractor Supply. He now has North American, African and farm critt...
