cruise

We got back from on cruise on saturday, we had a lot of fun! we ended up snorkeling in Tortola, St Thomas and the Bahamas. The best snorkeling was in Tortola! Everywhere was really beautiful! on the islands. We got ripped off in the Dominican Republic, when we went to see a waterfall. we did this with local people, yeah, bad idea! oh well. The cruise itself was nice, Aaron ate alot!! and he didn't gain a pound! he would eat like 5-6 times a day. me on the other hand kept it small and simple. I have a feeling I'm going to blow up like a ballon without the help of alot of food. :-) the food really was great. also they had shows every night, from comedy to small productions, singing, and so forth. it was good entertaintment. The rest of the time we just lounged around, read out books, got some sun, lounged some more. yeah, it was rough! :-)
now we're in arkansa visiting Aaron's family for a couple of days before we head out to Minniapolis. Aaron's dad was nice enough to let us borrow a boat for the summer!!! we're so excited and thankful!

1rst picture of the little gummy bear

so we went to the doctors' appt today and the NP wasn't able to hear a heart beat, of course according to aaron and i we could've got it, but we kept quiet instead. we'll she was nice enough since we are leaving town to send us for an ultrasound by saying of course that we weren't sure of the dates, so it was great! we were so excited to get an ultrasound! when we saw the baby for the first time, it was great, we both wanted to cry, ok, we did, we are so happy. anyways, the lady doing my ultrasound says, oh, there's the little gummy bear, ahhh how cute! he or she does look like a gummy bear. so, my new due date is Nov. 18th, but we'll see as I'm farther along what my next ultrasound will say! almost forgot the baby's heart rate was 176.! very exciting!! and we're leaving for our cruise tomorrow morning! it's been a good week! thank God!
