Over the Hump

Well, I am officially over the halfway point in my pregnancy! Jeez, time is really starting to fly by. I'm 22 weeks along, with only another 18 to go. I had a doctors appointment yesterday and everything is going pretty much perfectly. I feel great, baby feels great (if the amount of time he spends somersaulting around in there is any indication), and we can't wait for his arrival! And yes, though we haven't officially announced it on the blog yet, most of you know by now that we are having a BOY! Here are a few of his 3D glamour shots from our last ultrasound.

Here's his lil face, I think he has Brad's nose.

Here you can see his right arm, sort of tucked behind his head.
Yep, he's a lounger.


He's showing off his flexibility in this one.
It's a good shot of his long leg and his foot right in front of his nose!


I also wanted to share the great card that all my friends and co-workers from UT gave me at my going away lunch. The card was hand drawn by Bob Longmire, who works at UT as a graphic artist. He's obviously quite talented!

Bob had never met Brad before, so he worked from a Facebook photo.
Spot on, eh?!

And lastly, a quick update on Woody. His 2nd surgery to remove more of the tumor went well, though the poor guy was in quite a bit of pain for a few days after. We're happy to report he's pretty much back to his usual self, and we expect to get the stitches out and cone off today. And best of all, the lab results came back showing that the area is clean, so we got all of the tumor this time, YAY!! Woody has been a trooper through the whole ordeal, and it has only made us love him even more. He's been very agreeable and will even help you by pushing his head through the cone opening when it's time to put it back on after a walk. We're so glad he's ok and hope that he remains cancer free for the long haul!

We hope that everyone has safe and happy holidays, and a happy new year!

He looks like he picking his nose with his toes...Very talented young fellow at such an early age. All of his friends will be so impressed with his party trick!
