And announcing… a baby
For those unaware, we are expecting a baby. Until today, we referred to the size of baby growing inside as a fruit size. Amber signed up for email notifications to keep us apprised of growth progress. This week, he/she was a fig, last week a kumquat, the week before that a grape, etc. Our fig was due on Aug 29, but today that changed. We learned much more today as we had our first real doctor appointment:
- 1 heartbeat = 1 baby (Amber has twins in her family)
- We're due September 4, pushing us back to a kumquat
- Heartrate is 166bpm, which is very normal... according to my sister, very typical of girls
- There's a lot of arm pumping, leg kicking and heart beating

Congratulations on Baby Wise.
I’m excited. Mam

How exciting……I am really happy for you both.
Don and I will not make it to the wedding but should see you soon after. You don’t know how much I hate to miss a wedding.
LOVE AP & Don

Awesome…and this baby could be trying to look like me due to all the “arm pumping” its doing..ha ha

So very touching for my old heart. So great if it is a girl, but just think… if it’s a boy the Wise name will be resurected for at least one more generation.
Congratulations Amber and Casey – Poppa
