What. A. Day.

Pedro had President's Day off this year. It was odd. He has never had it off before, but we were thankful to spend an entire day together as a family which is something we never get to do. I had to have a follow up ultrasound for "irregular fetal heartbeat" so I scheduled it for this morning so that Pedro could go. My doctor told us that it was probably nothing and rolled his eyes when he saw that on the report from the 20 week ultrasound. We were happy to see a healthy little baby kicking around in there. The ultrasound tech told us she could see hair on his head already and that everything looked healthy. He weighs 4lbs. 3 oz. already and his feet and nose look exactly like Sam's.
Speaking of Sam, we had a fun afternoon with him. He was sitting watching Veggie Tales with Daddy at about 4:00 when he threw himself forward and slammed his face into one of his drums. He bit right through the space between his bottom lip and his chin.
I called our family doctor and he suggested we take him to the ER in case he needed stitches or a plastic surgeon. No way! It was a clean little cut and I was pretty sure it didn't even need a stitch. We got it to stop bleeding and decided that we would take him to the Medicenter by our house to be on the safe side. No stitches and we were able to get a nurse to look at it while we were still in the lobby. We were out of there in five minutes. Praise God.
Then we took him out for some popsicles and bought him a new Veggie Tale DVD.
