for the love of monday

why... you ask... do i love monday???
can anyone guess?????

24 is on tonight. i can't wait.
and the cleaners come on monday. my house smells so good.

i had my first dr. appointment today! pretty exciting! i got to see my baby! it was so fun to see it with the ultra sound... how amazing... it's funny how emotional that is-i was bawling my eyes out just seeing that little image wiggle around. i do think that if you wait 5 or more years in between having a baby, you revert back to first-time-mom status. (when the tech that was drawing my blood asked me if it was my first baby, i could have kissed her!)
we all know that ultra sound photos look like blobs that are really pretty unidentifiable! but since my whole family lives far away, and keep up with me through this blog, i am posting the my ultra sound photos! eric... i wish you could have been there... it looks like a swapp to me! you can see it so much clearer when the ultra sound is taking place, but the photos look so different when it takes the 'photo'.
anyway... exciting! my date matched the measurements... so all is well!
the cravings are still pretty serious! the last four days... i have been craving anything with mustard on it! i even ate a hot dog. (shaking my head)...

i am wrapping up my cruise projects... i can hardly wait! it's a month from today!

Seeing your baby for the first time in an ultra sound is so exciting.

Hey we love Monday too for the very same reason!! We LOVE 24!!!

I hear ya on reverting back to "new mom status." I just have 3 1/2 years in between my two and I feel like I have forgotten EVERYTHING! Heck...how much they eat, when to start on cereal, etc. etc. etc. It's all wiped from my memory. LOL! Love your ultrasound pics. Do you know what you're having yet?

[Vee]

I ditto that. I tihnk with each baby the exctiement is like this is your first. Congrats... Take care and enjoy 24

Heidi,
That is so sweet to share your miracle with us. Thank you thank you... That is simply amazing. And I think you are right...When I had my son 7 years after my daughter, it was like being a first time mom...now my kids are ds-16, dd 23...**sigh**. I miss having little ones...
Have fun!
Louise

I know what you mean about the "first mum" thing - almost 6 years between my two. How special seeing the scans... when I saw my first one I got so excited when I saw two - what I thought were big brown eyes just like daddy's... no the lady said "dear, that's the kidneys"!!! With my second baby I had a doctors appointment the day that my dad died and for the first time I heard the baby's heartbeat, so special but I cried mountains, one heartbeat started, another finished.

[jen]

you are sooooooo funny!

[marlo]

Wow, I think those scans are pretty clear. So amazing to see. A miracle!! You are making me want to have another baby!! LOL Thank you for sharing a little of your world with us. Can't wait to see pics of the baby when he/she is born.

[Jodii]

thank you for sharing your precious little miracle with us Heidi and I think the scans are very clear. Glad to hear everything is going along tremendously

[Candice]

so sweet! ...are you going to find out what you're having?

[Fiffi - Sweden]

Thanks for sharing! Ultrasoundpictures are amazing, no matter how bad quality it is. Beautiful! I have 7 yrs between my kids, and the second one truly felt like it was my first one :)

[Kayla]

huge congrats going out to you :)

[shelly]

those are great ultrasound pix..You are right about waiting in between. It was 6 years after my first was born and I was back at the docs, trying to make sense of the ultrasound "if that's the baby, then what in the world is that!?"....oh...ANOTHER baby...and no my hubby wasn't there either...I immediatly had him come home from work...his words of wisdom...I know it wasn't what you planned, but let's think positive...they aren't conjoined! :) gotta love him...

[Emma Eaton]

Heidi, thank you for sharing your pictures with us - it's pretty cool to see your mini-Swapp :) Looking forward to seeing you again in April.

[Anita Hiltz]

OMG! How exciting for you! It is such an amazing experience! The pictures of your sweet little baby are precious! Thanks for sharing!

[Ally]

hee hee! Love seeing this latest Swapp! Congrats again! You were still looking pretty good at CHA!

[Kara]

heidi!!
sweet u/s pic!! what a cute teeny tiny baby!! :D i hear ya!! mine are 5 1/2 years apart, and i forgot EVERYTHING!!

[Rorie]

Aw, what a cute little blob! :) At this time last year, I was looking at my own little blob. It's such a wonderful feeling.

[elsaduff]

Oh love the pics!! Made me almost want another one...almost but not quite teehee. I agree with the waiting. My first two were 20m apart, too close, than almost 3y for the next, still not right. #4 was 5y later and it was just like the first for sure. You probably don't remember me but at CKU Vancouver I was the mum with all the boys that kept giving you back the pink prizes (MM metal class).

[Linda A (elendae)]

Nothing like that first ultrasound!! :) Congratulations, Heidi!

[EC]

how exciting!!!!!

[Dawn Bibbs]

Congrtulations again, Heidi. It IS amazing to see the first pictures of your baby. Especially for those of us who scrapbook :-).
What you're experiencing again is nothing beyond a miracle. It was the FIRST time you experienced it and it is now. We tried for 11 LONG years to have our 4 year old. And it brings tears to my eyes TODAY when I think about seeing her first ultrasound and hearing her heart beat for the first time. What a blessing! I'm happy for you.

[Nita]

Oh, how exciting! What a wonderful day this must have been!! The pics are very clear ~ I could even tell that the first one was Baby Swapp's head! I was getting all teary eyed looking at your pictures ~ I remember my pictures (sigh)! I'm sure you showed them to your children. Since the boys have been through an experience like this before, I will only ask: What did Quincy say when you showed her the pictures of her new little baby brother/sister?

I am truly happy for you! Hope you are feeling well & know that you are in my thoughts & prayers!
