Ye 'Ole Pap Schmere

At roughly 11 weeks and 3 days, I had to go in for a pap. Pappa-Dooey, Hooey-Looey. Whatever. But I tell ya, never have I been more excited to go! Josh joined me and got to meet Dr. Colla...he really digs her, too. We all joked around about this and that so the mood we created was light and fun. She had just come from a delivery so she was on cloud nine. So here are the stats at 11 weeks and 3 days...

Weight gained in 1st Tri-mester: 3 pounds
Blood Pressure: 110/58
Bloode Type: (finding out for the first time in my life) O+

But the BEST, BEST, BEST part was the possibility of hearing Baby's heartbeat. It's not unheard of the hear a heatbeat this early, but it's also pretty rare. But Baby Buffham's heart ROCKS and Josh and I heard Baby's heartbeat for the very first time! We gawked at each other with stupid little grins and I suddenly burst out laughing, which threw off the sound and hurt our ears. But the Doc found the heartbeat again and we listened in complete stillness. Now if you know me, you KNOW I love me some Christmas music, but this, BY FAR, is the best sound I've ever heard in my entire life...and I'm 30!

What a great Christmas this will be. What a great Christmas this will be.
