A new month. Today in the USA are July 4 celebrations, here there are july 4 celebrations as it is my nieces 2nd. birthday.
What a busy few weeks it has been. Started with 20 week scan as you know from previous blog. This followed by the commencement of the School holidays. Me and little one decided to visit with my mother(grandma) and visit with a dear old friend of mine that I had not seen in about 12 years.
It was so wonderful seeing her after all this time. She now how has 2 lovely little boys, beautiful home and what seems to be a wonderful life. When I had to go home she gave me a huge box full of baby clothes, nappies, socks and shoes. I felt so blessed and so unworthy of such an thoughtful gift. I felt bad for taking it and think I should have given her money for it all. I will be sending her a thank you when I figure out what it should be. I hope that it will not be another 12 years before I see her again and that I will continue to rebuild our friendship. Bestfriends as kids and still so much alike as adults.
Tomorrow is the 20 week antenatal appointment. Will have to drive to the city for the appointment but will get to meet with the man who delivered my little girl so that will be lovely. I hope it goes quickly as I hate driving all that way.

Big news...
We had our ultrasound, baby seems fine and the heartbeat lovely and strong. As far as the radiologist was concerned our baby is in perfect health.
Prior to arriving at the appointment I wondered if you were still required to drink copious amounts of water before the ultrasound, as I was not sure and had not been made aware of any said rule I decided to drink 1 litre just in case.. By the time they called my name out I was busting to go to the loo... It drove me crazy. I got up on the bed and she said to me that it is not a requirement any more. It would seem that in the last 3 and a bit years they have improved the technology so there is not a need for a full bladder.. (now they tell me)
We were so happy to learn that we are having a boy. Wow one of each that means. Makes you question if there would be a need or desire to have anymore children after this? Time will tell I guess.
Well that is all the excitement I have for now. We have chosen the name Raiden.
