Things are moving quickly!

I had my 24 week doctor appointment yesterday. I always love going to these appointments to hear Ava's little heartbeat and have the doctor tell me that everything is going good. She said that the baby sounds great and my belly and weight are measuring as they should. Thank goodness! ( I have been a little concerned that the baby is not growing enough!) She said that in the next few weeks I should expect some huge growth spurts so I need to make sure I am well hydrated and drinking lots of water. That is really hard to do for me, especially when I am at work. The doctor also said that now is the time for us to be deciding on a pediatrician. We need to get on the ball with that but thankfully I have tons of recommendations of wonderful doctors. My next appointment in 5 weeks will be my next ,and I think my last, sonogram. I can't wait to see baby Ava again and see how much she has grown! Her movements are more noticeable than ever and I see my belly move all the time. It is so hard to believe that we are going to have her in our arms in 3 1/2 months!!!

And...For those of you who care, we finally settled on a crib. Here is a link that shows a picture of it.

Hey Stranger!
How are you?! You seem to be doing very well. I am so happy for the both of you. Your blog is too cute! Mine is quite pitiful...still working on it. By the way, I love the name Ava. My first girl will be Ava Beth. Love it! Take care! Love you!
