This is a really funny Will Ferrell internet short you have to see.

A spy I am Not

Today was our second ultrasound, what an awesome experience. For those ultrasound virgins, it's about an hour long and involves watching a 10"x10", difficult to interpret, black & white display. The technician points out the head, spine, limbs, beating heart and much more, plus ours mentioned about a million times that our baby is quite active (I guess it's better than having a lazy baby).

In Halifax, the hospitals will not reveal the baby's sex (not that we wanted to know) nor will they give you a picture to take home, but you can pay about $100 for it at a private clinic. After recieving a pre-ultrasound letter politely informing us of these facts, I figured I knew better. We brought along our Sony digital camera and Yvette turned off the sound and flash, of course. I turned it on and left it in my pocket until an opportunity presented itself. Like an 80's era spy I snapped dozens of photos, extremely proud of my attempt to beat the system until I reviewed my handy work. As you can see no magazine will be purchasing my blurry, blob photos, which I will inform you all is not what our child looks like.

After a very long afternoon it was amazing that I could actually see our baby's heart beating and see it move on the screen. My pregnancy highlight so far.

We have movement

Yvette called me from work this evening with some cool news, she felt the baby move for the first time today. Apparently it happened in response to a high pitched annoying voice in her class... No I don't attend any of her classes.

Blogging

It looks like I'm finally getting the hang of this blogging thing. I've had some trouble uploading photo albums but since decide just to add a link to a Picasa Web Album so you can see some of our new and outdated photos.

Happy Easter

Yvette & I have started this site after our internet provider decided to stop Front page publishing; Oh well.

We hope to keep it updated at least weekly to keep our friends and family up to date about the various mundane things in our life.
