JULY 2016

Pregnancy Update
Well it is official--we are having a BOY!!! I felt like everything kept pointing to a boy--even my dreams! Randy and I are pumped! We went in on the 6th of this month to the Fetal Diagnostic Institute where they did the big daddy ultrasound and imaging (I was 18 weeks). The doc said everything looked great and that his growth was a little ahead of schedule. I also found out my placenta is attached in the front (I guess it is more common to be in the back). It was surreal to see him moving around so much! All I could think was, "Oh my gosh--there is actually a little life growing inside of me!"

I had an app with Dr. Moore at week 19 and she said everything looked good too! On the 26th I felt and saw him kick for the first time! I had felt his movements before this but never witnessed my stomach physically move!

I started a prenatal yoga class with my friend Alex. She is almost exactly a month behind me! It's been so cool exploring pregnancy with a friend who is going through very similar changes or has similar concerns and questions--especially since we are both first time mommas!






Other Happenings
For the 4th we watched the fireworks with Chris and Jill and ate yummy BBQ.

At one point Randy and I rode our bikes to Keiki Beach and met our friends (the Hanks) and they brought their baby Jet! This was his first time in the ocean. Recently, I made this amazing Fijian curry with butternut squash instead of pumpkin. We ate it with rice and it was sooo good! For work I had to come up with a game to play at our LDI at Turtle Bay. I chose to put together a Jeopardy style PowerPoint game and it was so fun--the winners got movie tickets.

Killing some time before our birth class


I had Jackfruit for the first time in my life---it tasted like juicy fruit gum!
