Had another Dr appointment this morning- all looks well! Baby Hippo has 2 arms and 2 legs and it's already taking after Mommy... the sono tech had to try 3 times to get measurements because Hippo was stubborn and uncooperative and wouldn't stop moving!! Friggin log rolls, I tell you. LoL. Lots of kicking and arm movement too, and it was cute to see the mouth opening and closing. Heartbeat is strong at 148 beats per minute. Very wiggly. I think I may have seen some of the Raspberry Beret dance going on. We're going to have to nip that ASAP, along with baby crocs. :-P

We're taking bets on the gender/date/time/etc. Enter your guesses here: multiple guesses allowed. http://www.expectnet.com/games/HippoBaby

Mommy is doing well too. Still no weight gained, and down 15lbs from pre-pregnancy. Not nearly as sick anymore, though some mornings are still pretty rough.

The pics are kind of stinky, because, like I said, Hippo wouldn't stop moving. I call these it's "action shots". hahaha
