Crepes

Monday, February 16th, 2009

So I was sitting here last night and was remembering how delicious crepes were. So I went searching for a good recipe. I did recall that the crepes I would eat as a child were so dang good, so I called the old man. He got me the recipe. But then I remembered how good blintzes were as well. So I went on a search for some good filling. Lucky for everyone reading this, I found a fantasic filling. So after reading this you are in the mood for crepes or blintzes, click HERE for a great recipe. And since I wanted to let your mind crave it, here is a picture of my breakfast.

12 week Dr. Visit!

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

baby

We went to our 12 week Dr. visit today. This is the visit where we get to hear the heartbeat to make sure all of this sickness is worth it. There was a shocking development when we got there, the Dr. was behind… So after a 45 min wait we finally got into the room. The Dr. came in and he got right down to hearing the hearbeat. Problem was, he couldn’t find it. Now we are no professionals at this by any means, but this made us a little nervous. He didn’t seem too nervous, but he wanted to not let us leave all freaked out, so he told us he wanted to do an ultra sound. Of course theirs was broken so we had to walk over to the office next door to use their machine. After informing us the he hadn’t used the ultra sound machine in about 10 years, the Dr. put the gel on her tummy and the baby appeared on the screen. He said that the baby looked good and the hearbeat was thumping away. He was able to capture a picture of the baby’s face and printed it out for us. He handed it to me and said, “Here is the picture of your alien baby”. I tried to get him to say it was a girl, but he wouldn’t. 8 more weeks to find out.
