Boom Boom Pow!

Hello Friends! It is almost Thanksgiving!! Hooray! Am excited to visit Mr. Q's family but am a little sad not to see my own this year. However...that's okay because I'll be seeing them *very soon* in a couple weeks and I will for sure be calling them on Thursday. Perhaps we will share a piece of pie together over the phone. It has been rainy and blah here, but yesterday our trip to the doctor's office was just as good as the sun coming out.

We got to hear Raisin's heartbeat for the first time! At my last appointment, we were unable to (sad) as Raisin was most likely too little yet, or hiding. But yesterday...the doctor found it right away. And it was LOUD. And fast. Our doctor (Dr. B) said it was right around 140-150 bpm. In addition to the fast little thumping, there were all sorts of other noises. It sounded like someone was hitting a microphone. Lots of Pows, Bams and Bada-Bings. It was all very Batman fighting and such.

Dr. B commented that Raisin was doing aerobics and was being very active. My guess is he/she felt extremely guilty for not showing up last time on the doppler, so wanted to make sure we were all VERY aware of her presence. It was either that or she was still very energized from our super powerwalk on the treadmill earlier that morning. 

In any event, we are both so thankful to know there really is a baby in there (as if growing tummy was not enough evidence). Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy time with your loved ones...near and far.
