Me Again

The biopsy went well. They think that the lesion is filled with fluid which automatically means that it is benign, however they weren't able to draw any fluid out to confirm this so samples were sent to the lab to be checked. I find out the answer on Tues or Wed and will post the results then.

The baby dropped Thursday during the night so we are still right on schedule. This usually happens about 2 weeks before the birth for a first child. Having the baby lower in my abdomen makes things a little more difficult. It feels like I have a bowling ball sitting on my pelvis and bending has become much more difficult. The good news is that the heartburn has lessened although it hasn't gone away completely.

My Mom and Dad came down for a brief visit today to deliver a rocking chair they had fixed up for me with a new paint job and cushions. They also brought clothes and bottles that a friend of mine sent along from GR. This baby has more clothes than I do!! They also brought a breast pump that I had bought from Ruth (same friend) before Aaron's Dad came along with a new one for us. Now we have two. That's ok - I can probably bring back the new one as we haven't broken the seal on it. It is just amazing to me the generosity of friends. Matt and Maria provided us with most of the big gear such as bouncy chairs and swing, car seat, carriers and a whole lot more. So many people have given us gifts or hand me downs that I am a little overwhelmed with unpacking the bags and boxes! It's a nice situation to be in.

Who would have known that such a small little person would require (or acquire) so much stuff!

The reason he gets more clothes than you do is because you have outgrown that whole puking on yourself phase...I hope :p
