Blogworthy

I've been a very bad blogger lately, but every once in a while, I have something to blog about. Today, it's more of Baby Quockido. (Baby #4)

Well, we no longer have to refer to the poor girl as Quockido. Her name will now and forever be "Cassie Shane"!! I'm still kind of in mourning about my first choice, which was "Irelyn Shane", however I knew that the Hubs just wasn't feeling it. So, ever the dutiful wife (yeah, I'm rolling my eyes, too) I kept wracking my brain for the perfect name.

It took a while for Cassie to come back to me. It was a name that we'd considered when picking out names for Emma. It's not Cassidy or Cassandra... just Cassie. Named for my father's initials, C.A.S., and her father's middle name; Shane. So yeah, she's named after two men. And I think it's cute!

Ok, so part 2!

Ultrasound 3 was today! Her HB was at 154 and she seemed to be measuring right on schedule (18w 5d) and I just wanted to share some pictures!

Still a girl!
Lookit the gams on this girl!

I don't think I've seen one of my girls this stretched out before!
Stretch those legs while you still have room, baby girl!

Her sweet lil profile!

10 Weeks - Baby Quockido

Baby Quockido is my new nickname for this baby... meaning, Baby 4 (Quattro). When Brooklyn was little, she loved to count in Spanish... "uno, dos, tres, quockido...."
Since I'm all flabby and not pregnant-looking yet, this is what Baby Quockido might look like at 10 weeks!

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 10 Weeks

Size of baby: 1.4 inches, .14 oz - about the size of a prune
Weight Gain: 0 - holding steady!

Maternity Clothes: Not yet... probably won't take too much longer.

Gender: Unknown, but we're gonna find out at the soonest possible moment!!!

Movement: None yet. It normally doesn't happen for me until somewhere around 17-20 weeks

Sleep: I have been sleeping like the dead! Super heavy with snoring and all!!
What I miss: Not a thing... So far, I wouldn't even know I was pregnant if it weren't for the absence of the monthly plague!
Cravings: I am craving getting to week 16 so we can do a gender determination ultrasound!

Symptoms: Fatigue and a very strong gag reflex. Other than that, I feel VERY fortunate about the absence of all of the "normal" pregnancy symptoms.

What I’m looking forward to: So looking forward to finding out what we're having, but next week I should be able to hear the heartbeat at the doctor's appointment. He also has an u/s machine in the office, so I'm hoping he'll take a peek to maybe pin down the due date - which would mean I'd get so see the baby!!! *fingers crossed*
