Sneaky Sneaky

I am currently in Atlanta visiting my family for the week. I was able to see my sister's ultrasound this morning. She is 7 months pregnant so her baby looks somewhat different than my baby. He was so cute in their sucking his thumb and hiding his face from the ultrasound machine.

One thing Boswells are good at is asking impertinent questions and getting things no one would have even asked for. So, when we asked her doctor if I could hear my baby's heartbeat M's poor husband was mortified. And the poor doctor obviously didn't feel comfortable about it (I'm sure there could be some legal ramifications), but all she said was "you've put me on the spot." I gave her an out, which she didn't take. (That's usually the Boswell girl game plan, M asks something impertinent, I soften the blow by acting sympathetic...and then we get what we want). All that to say, I got an ultrasound this morning!! I heard the heartbeat and saw the baby in my belly for about a second. I haven't had an appointment in over a month and it's hard to be excited when it is something so surreal. My sister's stomach is huge and I still can't grasp the concept that their is a real live baby in there that will come out in a month in a half. I can read the books all day long, but I'll still believe in the magic of storks.

On a side note, on this snowy, sleepy day in Atlanta I have been watching some movies. I just finished Sleeping with the Enemy and I am now on Notting Hill. I must say, Julia Roberts is awesome. Love her.
