Baby's Heartbeat

Yesterday was such an amazing day! At our midwife appointment we were able to hear the baby's heartbeat loud and strong - it was completely unbelievable! While the midwife was listening we kept hearing a loud thump that was obviously not the heartbeat and the midwife said the thump was the baby kicking. S/He was being so active!

Everything else checked out great and everyone is looking perfectly healthy for which we are extremely grateful. Next step is another ultrasound on the 26th!

Love to you all!

Pregnancy Update & Picture

Hi! I thought it was about time to give everyone an update on Baby Ferebee. Although we don't have any new pictures (next ultrasound on June 26!) we definitely think s/he is growing as I am certainly growing! Here is a picture from about 10 days ago (16 weeks) - this was taken at night so I am a little bigger here then I am normally during the day:


I am feeling really great overall and am very very glad to have my appetite back finally. The only problem is now I desperately want Taco Bell, LaBotona and Chick-fil-A. We were watching Friends the other night and Joey was eating a sub sandwich with turkey and roast beef and all that night I dreamt about a Publix sub!

We just had Paul and Katy (Cahill) visiting with us for about 4 days and had an absolutely awesome time. We spent an afternoon and evening in Newcastle with Jonathan and Sissy (Massie) and another day in York which was fantastic. Cheryl (Chris's mom) and Memaw, (Chris's grandmother) fly in on the 19th and among other things they are taking us to London for a few days before Chris's graduation on the 27th. Jim (Chris's dad), Debbie (Jim's wife), Brandon (Chris's brother) and Lindsey (Brandon's girlfriend) are also flying for Chris's graduation so we are going to have an awesome time with everyone in Durham!

That is all the big news from the bright lights of Durham. Hope everyone is enjoying the 90 degree weather!! :)

Love to you all,
Amber
