test results and other updates

well, we know the test results of part one of our birth defect screening. all is well with the blood sample as well as the neck measurement! the nurse said everything looks good! yay! we will have one more screening on june 23 when we go back to the doctor. we go to the ob/gyn on june 15 and should find out if we will be buying pink clothes or blue clothes! that will be an ever-so-exciting day! we are in the process of selecting names (one set of each so we are prepared either way)! we are leaning toward an original name for the baby's first name and giving a middle name that is named after someone we know...family member, friend, etc. we really like the names we have selected thus far and are now just narrowing down our middle name options! it is all so exciting! on tuesday, when i had my 12-week sonogram, i was exactly 12 weeks and 3 days along. during that visit, i was surprised to hear the nurse tell the doctor that the baby's measurement was around 13 weeks and 3 days. yikes! baby billett is already larger than average. i guess that is to be expected since austin and i were both large babies! i'll be interested to see how things progress. summer is upon us and we are both glad as can be! austin is starting his master's degree this summer and i am going to have a few tutoring clients to work with. i will also be making time to volunteer at the haven animal care shelter, work on baby stuff, sew quilt tops, organize the garage and have a garage sale, as well as work on other miscellaneous tasks in and around our house! it's going to be busy...but i can smell productivity! take care one and all, :) carianne
