Had a date with Joe on Valentine's Day for an ultrasound. The first shot we saw was the munchkin's spine, so I think it's possible that I'm gestating a dinosaur. A brontosaurus? So now when people ask whether it's a boy or girl, I'm just telling them it's a dinosaur. For real, the spine looked like something that you'd see at the science museum- all spine, and oh-I-guess-there-are-some-other-body-parts-too. Like kidneys and eye sockets- my kid has those!
Though today, I think it's a girl, and I also think she's practicing some gymnastics. She's been moving like crazy the past couple days. She was super chill for the funeral on Wednesday and the few days leading up to that (also, last week I thought it was a boy), and the next day, started moving like crazy again. Today, I think she's happy to be back in Denver. Or she likes the tons of pizza I ate for lunch.
Either way, imagining a dinosaur doing gymnastics in my belly is a pretty great visual for me.

I kind of love the dinosaur in your belly mental image too. You seem to be really chill about this whole pregnancy- I was a hot mess. What's your secret?

Yay for dinosaurs! We need to get brunch and hang out soon! You know, before you have a dinosaur to schlepp to gymnastics. :-)
