Matt & zee Calculator

Today Matt took some time to impress me with his calculator spelling skills. He started slow and simple for me in case I didn't catch on. Messages like "hello" and "hi boss".

I then challenged him to make a complete sentence.

He sat figuring out all the letters he could get out of the calculator and pondered the sentence he could make. He finally came up with "I see hogs" (pictured above).

Actually his first one used a 2 instead of a 5 for the "s" in see so it looked like "I zee hogs". When I asked him about it, he said he was being even fancier and spelling it with a french accent.

First Doctor Visit

Dodge wasn't able to afford any time off work so Mom came with me to my first appointment today. I just spent time with the nurse. Giving her our medical history and getting the basics of what pregnancy means. They took like 6 dang tubes of blood and I had to pee in a cup. Mom says to get used to peeing in a cup as I'll do it every time I visit now. I made my appointment for next month and got my prenatal vitamin prescription.

The estimated due date we were given was May 4, 2009. Seems so far away!

When we got out mom handed me a little bag. She said she's had it for over a week already but she was out of town last week. We got love grandma and grandpa onsies and an organizer! Mom knows how I love organizers! This is the first official gift we've gotten so I had to take a picture of it.

Thanks Mom!

Tracker

I see the doctor for my first visit on Thursday but patience has never been one of my strong suits. I've checked parenting web sites trying to figure out an estimated due date and other baby information.

Today I bought a pregnancy tracker app from iTunes for my phone. $2 for a quick look of how far along things are. Like I wouldn't know anyway but eh it wasn't that expensive.

When the doctor gives me his estimated due date, I can enter that in and follow it according to that timeline. Right now it's just estimating based on my last period.

New Monitor

Karen and I got monitor upgrades today just out of the blue. It is such a technical leap from the monitor I had I'm feeling all high tech today!
