can't win them all, i guess...
oilers won the first 3 games of the western finals against the ducks...then lost miserabley tonight...well, i guess not miserablY...we did pull ourselves from 3-0 to 4-3...then ducks got a 5th goal, then a 6th...
so, i guess, that could actually be classified as miserably...
i guess it was too much to ask to just win the first 4 games right off the bat and have the series over with, but on the same token, it is asking a lot of the ducks to win the next 3 games...
i mean, all we need is one more win...and within the next 3 games, we should be able to pull it off...
we better be able to pull it off...
i didn't go spend, well, a good amount of $$$ today on oiler's stuff to lose the western finals...
just pray that it doesn't go to game 7...cause i fear sudden death there...i mean, us win 3 games, then ducks win 3...and then be at game 7...i know we pulled it off with detroit like that, but that was pure luck...
incredible...but luck :)
well, all i can say now is...
GO OILERS GO!!!

no more toast for breakfast for me...
maybe no more toast for me EVER!!! (at least while pregnant, anyways)
apparently, toast is not a good food for me to eat...some would say i should have figured that one out when iT MADE me feel sick when i would eat it, but that is not enough for me...
however, BEING sick after eating it is enough for me to say...
NO MORE TOAST!!!
it's ging to be a long 6 more months with no toast...
i like toast :(

so here it is...our baby :)
the ultrasound went very well...i started crying when she showed me the baby...it was so amazing to see it...with it's legs straight up in the air, the heart beating, it's arm lying beside it, and it's big ol' head...
and i gotta say...if the 6cm it says there is the length of the baby, almost 3", i think we got ourselves a tall baby :)
cause at 12 weeks, a baby should be 1.5"-2"...not almost 3"
either way, we are very excited and it was great to see the baby today :)



p.s. sorry for my reflection in the pic...

YAH!!!

Hello, Krystin!

Your fig-sized fetus now measures 1 1/2 inches from head to bottom and weighs in at a quarter-ounce. He finally looks like a baby, with tiny but fully formed fingers and toes. As his body grows and becomes more developed and functional, he'll start twisting and turning like an acrobat, cushioned and protected by your amniotic fluid. You, on the other hand, are probably feeling less like a gymnast every day. Heartburn (caused by pregnancy hormones that relax the valve separating your esophagus from your stomach) and indigestion may be annoying you during the day and keeping you up at night. Just remember, all this suffering is for a good cause — you're having a baby!

i think a bird just flew into the window...
i'm not sure...
but i heard a sound that would indicate the wondow being struck...then as i looked out there was a bird (or a bat, perhaps) kinda flying wobbly and side to side...not really sure where to go...
i'm thinking it flew into the window...
it's kinda like those windex commericials...a crow flies intoa window cause it is so clean from windex he can't see it there...
that wouldn't be why it flew into our window, though...
lol

so, a couple of nights ago i had a dream that i had a baby boy...
that would make two dreams now...
i wonder if they mean anything???
maybe i just need to have twins...fraternal, of course...i would love identical, will, not so much...
but back to fraternal twins...
will and i each have a hunch it is a boy...but that's all we really have is just a hunch...
will's sister is quite SURE it's a girl...and has gone as far as calling her by name...lol
(which i think is totally cute)
so, like i said...fraternal twins :)
that would be the cure-all...then we could both be right...
but i guess only time will tell...

this is amazing:
your pregnancy at 9 weeks:
How your baby's growing: Your new resident is nearly an inch long — barely the size of a grape — and weighs just a fraction of an ounce, but he's poised for rapid weight gain now that his basic physical structure is in place. He's also starting to look more and more human. His embryonic "tail" is now completely gone and his body parts — including organs, muscles, and nerves — are kicking into gear.

His eyelids are fused shut and won't open until 27 weeks. He has earlobes, and by week's end, the inner workings of his ears will be complete. His upper lip is fully formed, too, and his mouth, nose, and nostrils are more distinct. The tips of his fingers are slightly enlarged where his touch pads are developing. All major joints — his shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees, and ankles — are working, enabling your baby to move his limbs. As for his heart, it has divided into four chambers now, and the valves have started to develop. External sex organs are there, but won't be distinguishable as male or female for another few weeks.
