New move, new niece and a heartbeat!

Grace Arena came into the world on 27 June weighing 6lb 8oz, a new niece for us, sister for Charlie and Nate and 3rd addition for Nellie and Vince. Now I have one niece and one nephew who I've never met!!!!!! Spoke to Nellie afterwards and she sounded great, her first natural delivery after two previous c-sections. No drugs - just gas - wow!

Finally got an apartment sorted, we moved on Friday and HB worked like a thousand men. I was useless, wasn't supposed to lift any of the boxes. As a reward I served as HB's beer wench for the evening, it was the least I could do. The new place is actually more comfortable with better internet and more important SKY TV!

Friday morning I went to the doctors for a 15 week checkup. I was relieved and surprised when my blood pressure was good - if ever there was a week when it should have been up, then this one was it. Everything else was fine and I was pleasantly surprised when the Dr whipped out a thingy (technical term!) that let me hear Blobby's heartbeat. Whew, more reassurance that everything is still ticking along. Wouldn't it be nice to get one of those thingys at home, whenever the evil thoughts creep in I could bring it out and listen and peace of mind will be delivered. Must look into that.
