Peanut Visit


How does Emily pass the time while waiting for our Peanut appointment?  Knit of course!
That's the hospital parking lot.  It was pretty nasty and snowing in the morning.
This was Emily's reaction when she learned Old Navy had no maternity clothes.

Another super meal prepared by Emily!

Today we had another visit at the doctor's office today with Terry, our nurse practitioner.  The Peanut is doing great - had a heartbeat of 150 today.  Emily had some questions which Terry answered.

Since we were out and about we decided to go to Target, mainly so Emily could look for some more maternity clothes.  She also bought me a pair of boxers with beagle's on them, in honor of Saddie, whose health is failing. 

We then went to Costco to pick up a few items, as well as have a tasty lunch.  Emily had a polish dog, I had pizza.  Yum yum.  

Next was Old Navy, where more maternity clothes shopping was on the agenda.  Except there was one problem - no maternity clothes.  That made Emily sad.

Emily really wanted her hair cut so we had a stopped off at the 5th Ave Mall.  I hung out at Gamestop and the GCI (our internet/cable provider) store while Emily got her new doo.  I learned that we can get a few extra channels, all in HD, and a DVR for only 10 extra bucks a month.  I think I'm going to sign us up for it.

Since the Bam-Man had been cooped up in his kennel all day, we decided to take him to the dog park.  It was pretty sunny out, and would have been warm if it wasn't for the wind.  We used Banjo's Chuck'it.  He loves playing chasing after the ball, although he's not the best at tracking it.

After the park Emily went to yoga while I worked on my application to the Washington State Patrol.  Then Emily made a super tasty dinner of Lemon Breaded Chicken, green beans, baked potato, and a bitchin' salad with homemade strawberry vinaigrette.  Score!

Now Emily is knitting a sweater for little Baby Boy Anders.

I can't see Emily's belly in any of the pictures. I want to see the baby growing.

Glad that you are working on your resume. Hopefully it will be quickly excepted and you will both be coming home soon.
