Ok, so today was the day I THOUGHT I was having my 12 week sonogram. I had it on my calendar and have been thinking about it daily ever since I scheduled it weeks ago. This was my chance to see Baby Newsom in full form, instead of the black blob that it was in my first sonogram at 7 weeks. I had trouble sleeping last night because I was so dang excited. Aaron even came to my work 2 hours early to wait for the appointment time to arrive because he was so excited. For those of you who have been pregnant before, you know that they make you have a full bladder when you come in for the sonogram (of course, they dont really explain why). So I had a difficult time this morning trying to time my pee so that I would have a full bladder when I went. This was not easy considering I am at that stage already where I could pee on demand if I needed to...so holding it is not really fun, especially when are nervous in the first place. Anywho...Aaron and I get to the doctor office and the lady informs me that I do not have an appointment today, that it was Tuesday and I missed it!!! She didnt have much sympathy for me considering they even called me last week to remind me of the date and time. How I managed to screw this up can only be explained by one thing...pregnancy brain!!! I dont have the foggiest idea how I turned Tues, Nov. 16th into Thurs, Nov 18th. My sister even asked me on Tuesday about my sonogram because she remembered the date...and yet I still F'd it up! I bet even Baby Newsom knew and was screaming at me from the womb, "MOM, its not Thursday, its Tuesday!" I feel like the biggest dumb-dumb on the planet right now. The poor lady at the check in counter had to make several calls in order to get me in for another one this week since the 12 NT scan is a very time sensitive test and cant be put off...not to mention next week is Thanksgiving week. What a nut job I am! So thankfully they got me in at 1:50pm tomorrow. But I am pretty sure they put me on some list at the doctor's office where they sort out the smart moms from the morons, just so they know what they can expect from us in the future. I am trying to convince myself that I am not the only one to have done this. So, since I dont have a sonogram picture to share today, I will show you my latest belly shot, taken last night. I am getting pretty darn sexy huh?

ahahaha first of all "pregnancy brain" doesnt exist but good try hun.. Cant wait to see baby Newsome in full form..
