Another Trip To The Baby Doc

Today me, my mom, and Jack went to see our baby doc for a check-up....all is going well, my blood pressure looks good, the baby was very active and the heartbeat sounded great, and we also found out we'll be having one more ultrasound done in two weeks to see how the baby is growing. By the way my body feels, I bet she's about 15 pounds by now!!! Both the nurse and our doctor seem to think the baby is head down...she had been breach at our last ultrasound so this is good news. I figured she'd turn herself around, she's probably just a procrastinator like her Mom. When I came out of the doctor's office I discovered that Jack had made friends with a 7 year old boy who was anxiously awaiting a baby brother/sister. Jack was entertaining as always, pretending his finger had been bitten off by a dinosaur he was playing with. You would not have known there was a five year age difference between the two of them because Jack acts like he's 2 going on 22. Lately he has been going through a phase that I wish would soon run it's course....he's scared of everything. The other day he had a mini meltdown and cried to me about all the things he's scared of. I didn't know he was scared of half of the things on the list, but it went something like this: bees, beetles (just like Daddy, he pointed out), the shower, the sweeper, the "mows the grass" (lawnmower), baby sheep, bears, centipedes, snakes, and a slew of others that I can't think of at the moment. The boy is a real trip, let me tell you. He is never at a loss for words and always keeps us laughing. Baby sheep? Now that's a new one!
