I’m sorry I don’t have much to share. I have some random, not great photos of Jacob and that’s about it. My view lately is my bedroom walls and sometimes living room walls from a reclined position and looking out over the toes of my left foot. I miss my darling Jacob. Even when he is home and I am home, he can’t just sit here with me all day. I miss playing with him and picking him up when he falls down. I miss chasing him and letting him climb on my back for a ride into the kitchen. But I really can’t pout…life is good and he is happy, and that’s all that matters. 🙂

Today I had a checkup on baby O2. He is doing great. His heart sounded perfect, and he even kicked the doctors hand as she tried to catch the sound of his heartbeat in her Doppler. She did tell me that the feeling of pressure in my ankle, which I had expected to go away by now, was most likely sticking around because of the increased blood volume that comes with pregnancy. It was strangely reassuring–at least it doesn’t mean I’m not healing well. He still moves around  quite a bit, so this may not last, but he was head-down today. 

Good news, all in all! I am grateful!
