Tiny heartbeat...

Today was another md appointment. Randy picked Jordana up at school and then me at work. We had a 4pm appointment. This is the first time Dr. Stern had seen Jordana since he delivered her (besides pix).

Dr. Stern: Hi cutie, what's your name?

Jordana: Thanks for not dropping me!!!

Nice coaching job Randy!!!

So I am at 9 weeks and it was time to hear a heartbeat. The nurse, Lisa, took all of 7 seconds to find it. There it was, thumping away. Loud and strong. Nature is amazing sometimes. Maybe next time we'll get to see him/her.

It's rodeo time!!!

It's that great time of year in Houston, the livestock show and rodeo is here!! Randy and I bought the whole season and kicked it off on Monday night with a Tim Mcgraw concert. He was hoarse becuase they are recording an album, but they sounded great. Tuesday night, mom and I went to see Faith Hill. She sounded amazing, but the band did not. I know the acoustics at Reliant are not made for concerts, but Faith's band was too loud for the arena (I sound like an old fart...the music is too loud!!!). Randy saw Kevin Fowler last night and we sold our Alan Jackson tix for tonight. (good thing because the weather was horrendous tonight!!!) Next concert is Toby Keith!!. We plan on making a day of the rodeo with Jordana next Friday. We will go to the kids carnival, see the baby animals at the Agventure and go to the petting zoos. I don't think Jordana is big enough for the mutton busting, but the pig races should be fun.
My Aunt Ilene and cousins Rori and Brian are flying in for a visit the week after and they will get to experience the rodeo. I hope they enjoy it, as well as the Big and Rich concert they got tickets for.
I am still exhausted beyond comprehension and I still have this rash and now I have been getting stress headaches. I am waiting for the second trimester, where (I hope) I will start feeling normal again. I have not made a scrapbook page in weeks. I had the same problem when I was pregnant with Jordana. I was behind in my pages before she was born!! I will not let that happen again!!
