Today was our first official appointment with the midwife, meaning she drew my blood for all that stuff, and the pee sample, blood pressure, discussed more stuff. It was so great, she came to my house, and this time her assisstant (apprentice) came along too. They are both such amazing woman, I loved how we all just sat around in my living room chatting like we had known each other forever. Ethan was playing the Xbox the whole time, Addison was napping, it was just great. We discussed different testing you can get, or decline if you choose. Risks, benefits, etc. We talked about nutrition, and I found out some really neat info on stress hormones, and happy hormones and how your growing baby relates to them, and how you can really make the whole "being made" process a great one for your little unborn child. We went to the beach this afternoon, we ended up staying for 3 hours, which is a first for us. Usually Addison is having a meltdown after about an hour, hour and a half max. We had a bonfire and roasted hot dogs and s'mores, the big kids played down in the surf for awhile, and it was a great afternoon/evening.
Thats it for now, I hope you all have a great Labor Day weekend and just chillax!!!!

So will you find out the sex? Did you find out the sex on the other 2? I have done it both ways. I am a planner but then love to be surprised at the same time. :)
