Today was the my first appointment with my new Doctor and I am so excited... is it bad that I have a little bit of a crush on my doctor! He really is nice, but more than just a little bit gay. I heard baby's heart beat and its just under 130 beats per minute. Micah would have bet money that we are having a girl, but now I think that he is leaning towards that boy side of the belly (which side is that exactly, i think its which ever side has the most stretch marks!) I love being pregnant because Micah is such a sweetie and you had better believe that I am milking it for all its worth. Now heres a line from our sponser..... Hello from the dark side! This is my (Micah's) first time writing on our blog. If you're reading this blog entry I would appreciate it if you you would print it off and save it, because years from now Melinda will deny that she ever called me a sweetie. Truth be told, we are both super excited, and things are going well here in Siberia. Mel has been telling me that she really likes the name Bristol if we have a girl (uniquely Alaskan). I asked her why Bristol, and she told me because I was in Bristol Bay when the baby was conceived. It took me three weeks to realize that Mel hasn't been to Bristol Bay! Of course I'm kidding, but on a more serious note, JaMicah or JaMelinda is going to have to work because Mel doesn't like my first choice. I am voting for Ivan The Impaler Clinger. I mean, how cool would that be to have The Impaler as a middle name, and not just a nickname. Well folks, we have to go now, but check back soon because we plan to start updating our blog a little more often.
