We had our determine-the-gender-of-the-baby ultrasound today (although I'm pretty sure the doc was interested in more important things, like baby's development, etc!)..... but as for us, we were so excited to find out we're having a BOY! What on earth am I going to do with a boy??? All I know is girl stuff - girl parts, girl clothes, girl everything! I am looking forward to getting mentally prepared for this male who will soon join our family :) My good friend, Amy, already got baby boy an adorable polo shirt (which happens to match one of Peter's perfectly!) - thanks, Ame!
In other news, Elise just reached 9 months of age on March 5th! She had a 9 month well check last week as well.... She now weighs 19# 10oz and is 29" tall - what a big girl :) She is developing well and seems to be right on track. We are ever thankful for a healthy baby AND a happy one, too. Elise's favorite things to do at the moment include: high-fiving her daddy or me, attempting to wave, crawling & standing up EVERYWHERE, banging toys on the table, eating grown-up food, and babbling up a storm.
Unfortunately, Elise got sick for the very first time right at 9 months old (which made taking her monthly photo a challenge, but we ARE glad she made it 9 months without any issues).....
But here's the "good" 9-month shot :)
Completely off topic.... Peter recently created a website to display my art (paintings, drawings, etc). He did such a great job in setting up the website - what a good husband :) Here's the link:
Hope everyone's enjoying the AMAZING weather today - I got to walk to the grocery & back, and I actually got hot. YES! Can't wait for spring :)
