TGIF and an Ultrasound

We made it to Friday! I know that some of you are just as excited as I am.

This was the other night. Baby girl was frustrated and would not let me feed her so I heated up a bottle. I tried to feed her from the bottle and she was still unhappy. So what happened below is that after crying, I gave her her teether to see if it would distract her for a little bit. Then I decided to hold up the bottle to get her attention. She saw it through the teether, set it on her face and grab the bottle to start eating. She held it all by herself until she was done! I only left the teether long enough to take the picture :D

 She is really working on sitting up on her own. Not quite there but almost. Look at her grabbing for those toys! We have really enjoyed spending time with her on the floor lately with her toys.




BLUE FRIDAY! (it's a Seahawk thing...)

Marianne Hansen made the beautiful bow. I told her that she can use Olivia as a model any time :)

Thank you grandma Marietta for making this hat! It is finally starting to fit <3

Looking at her daddy

This is miss Olivia at 6:45am this morning. She and Mike came with me to my ultrasound appointment. I have to say, it was weird to go in for an ultrasound with out being pregnant. When I left, the technician said that my doctor would have the results within 24 hours. I missed a call from them this afternoon and when I called back, the guy who had called me had just left. I heard the gal reading through his notes and I am pretty sure that she mumbled that my blood work and the ultrasound were clean. But then she said that they want to schedule me for a HIDA Scan. I had to look up what it was (you can see the definition below). She said that it would take about an hour and a half. The appointment is next Friday. I will let you know how it goes. Olivia makes it all worth it though! 


A hepatobiliary (HIDA) scan is an imaging procedure used to diagnose problems in the liver, gallbladder and bile ducts.
In the HIDA scan, a radioactive chemical or tracer is injected into a vein in your arm.
The tracer is handled by the liver like bile. Bile is a fluid produced and excreted by your liver that helps your digestive system break down fats in the foods you eat. Bile is stored in your gallbladder and the gallbladder releases the bile when you eat a meal.
A special nuclear medicine scanner (gamma camera) tracks the flow of the tracer from your liver into your gallbladder and small intestine.
