Toes are tasty...

In Kat's little world anyway. We got to see our little girl today on the ultrasound (and we verified that she's DEFINITELY a girl :)) and she really put on a show, she had her little hands wrapped around her ankles and was trying her darnedest to get her toes in her mouth. You could see her little mouth opening and closing and her scrunching up trying realllllly hard to eat her some baby toes.

It was one of the cutest things in the world.

Also during the ultrasound when Tim started talking to the tech, Kat started kicking up a storm. She really loves the sound of her Daddy's voice. As far as Daddy is concerned, the only word that sums it up is: Smitten... he's totally smitten with our little Kit Kat. He's been patting my tummy ever since we left. Awwwww....

Otherwise the appointment was great! The doc said that my Gestational Diabetes is very borderline, and that the diet alone should be plenty to keep it in line. I've only gained 2 more pounds (and since between the last appointment and this one Kat gained a full pound, I definitely am proud of me!)

Kat is doing great, she did her 'practice breathing' on the ultrasound which they try to catch babies doing but they don't always do it for them, it means her lungs are developing well- her little heart was fantastic- all her organs are coming right along- her head and tummy both measured about a week ahead- and she's turned with her head down in preparation for her big day! She weighs approximately 3 1/2 lbs now, and isn't showing any real sign of being affected by the Gestational Diabetes at all. All in all, we have a healthy happy little girl in there! Even if she does eat her own toes. *silly grin*

Tonight is our tour of the Birth Center at the hospital, something we're both looking forward to. We've heard lots of good things about them, and we know it's a nice hospital. As a cool sidebar, it's also the same hospital where both Tim and Katie were born. Granted the Birth Center is brand new now, and completely up to date, but still very cool that our wee Kat will be born in the same hospital as her Daddy and Auntie.
