Heartbeat was easily visible, and thankfully, there was only one baby (my mortal fear....TWINS!). I was actually seriously worried about twins this time because, truth be told, I totally knew that I was pregnant before I took the test at almost 5 weeks..had never been so sure before, but this time, I didn't feel right, and I just knew it. Paul was like, duh, this is your third time, of course you know what it feels like. Then I thought about what he said...third time...third time....I felt a little like an unrestrained reproducing Catholic when he said that....not that 3 is alot, but it kind of is in this day and age, and some people hear "three", but their brain says "eight", and then I get the whole "Good luck with all of that" look...my favorite was my dear friend Ena, who asked if I had fallen and hit my head. It was something close to that ;-) Okay, joking aside, not that any of you speak to Jacob on a regular basis, but he has no idea about this yet, we're going to wait a bit to tell him (lest I have to explain to him daily for the next 7 months where the baby is and why it's not here yet). Last week, however, Jacob did have an interesting observation. He told me that Noah was eating his vegetables and was getting bigger. I agreed, but said that Jacob would always be the "big" brother. Jake then said that when Noah gets bigger from eating his vegetables, we were going to have to go buy another baby (from the people store, of course). At least he's open to the idea. It's progress from earlier this summer when he told me that we didn't need anymore babies because we already had one (after he became alarmed that somehow Elizabeths' baby was going to reside at our house!) Okay...now I'm really off to read Harry Potter. Will post soon (I hope).
