Bison, Caribou, and Elk oh my!

We did go to Northwest Trek on Saturday and we had a great time. We got to see quite a few animals really close up on the Tram ride and the kids were quite impressed. Madison couldn't quite comprehend why they weren't just out walking around with us once we got off the Tram. It turned out to be a great day to go because it was overcast so the animals were active. On the way home we stopped and ate dinner on an old train that had been converted into resteraunts and a hotel. It was neat and the kids really enjoyed that as well.

First offical OB appt

Today I went for my first OB appointment. Things went well. Earlier in the week we had an ultrasound due to the fact that I was having some questionable symptoms. The ultrasound looked great. The baby measured a week bigger than what it should be according to my dates so Dr Aaron moved my official due date a week earlier. My due date is now March 8th and I am 11 weeks pregnant....Yeah first trimester almost under my belt! I have been having some cramping so today he checked everything out thoroughly and ended up saying that this is probably just how this pregnancy is going to be. He said not to lift and to rest as much as possible. Hmmm...resting I can do that! Madison overheard me telling Scott so when we got out of the van she grabbed my hand and said, "Mom no lifting...don't touch Jake." She is already very protective of the baby! They are both wanting to talk to it more and "hug" it more. Madison can't wait to feel it kick.

Attempting.....

So I am going to attempt to keep up a blog.... Don't know how I will do but I've always wanted to try. Mostly for myself because I certainly won't sit down and write in a journal. I'm just not sure enough interesting stuff happens in my life.... Guess we will see.
