Well lets try this again, just lost my first post entirely.
Anyways, today we had another O.B. appointment, and off we went, once again I found myself in possession of several of Carries' garments, this time her coat and scarf only; as I waited shoeless (we had a veritable ton of snow in the last day or so and they had a sign on the door to please remove soiled footwear). And after a short time the doctor came to fetch me, and off I went to a little room, to hear for the first time, my babys heartbeat.
All in all a wonderful day, or, the usual since I met my lovely wife.
