Growing this boy bigger and stronger day by day!

Earlier this week Drake didn't perform/move on ultrasound the way the doctors wanted him to so each day I was having to go back down for them to take a look. The day after I got the "official" doctors orders to eat chocolate he sprung to life during my ultrasound scan Thursday afternoon. I had been feeling him moving since Wednesday afternoon but it was a huge relief to actually see it as well. They were also able to witness two of the practice breaths they had been wanting to see, which was great!

Since they were able to witness that and he continues to move I no longer have to get daily ultrasounds, they will just start checking him on a weekly basis.  His heart rate continues to be strong each time he is monitored and I am still not having any contractions - yay!

Drake's goal birthday was one month from yesterday, June 3rd so I am counting down the days until we get to meet this little guy! In the meantime I'm passing the hours with some great visitors, magazines, and daytime TV :)

Andy brought Kellan up for a couple hours yesterday. He jumped right up in my bed and stayed next to me the whole time! An impressive feat for a kid who usually can't sit still for 10 minutes. He found out there is ice cream in the kitchen down the hall so he was happy to eat and tell me all about his day!  

 We are hoping for a nice quiet weekend around here. Andy is so sweet and is staying with me all weekend! We'll have time to catch up on movies and play some old school board games :) Hope everyone has a great weekend!
