Bump Endorses Obama

Although not a super delegate, or able to vote officially, we wanted everyone to know that The Bump officially announced her endorsement of Obama via 2 kicks to Rhea's belly this morning.

Obama and Clinton both lobbied for The Bumps endorsement, but following Obama's speech last Tuesday, The Bump was quoted as saying that Obama "can bring us the change we so desperately need by bringing us together."

As they say, every little bit counts.

Congratulations on another important win Barack.

Ok, we've kind of sucked at keeping the blog updated recently....

But hey, cut us some slack. We're having a baby, remember?
So, why so long without a post to the blog? Well, for starters, we're nesting. And snuggling. And talking about baby things. Like how much she's going to weigh when she's born. Or how old she should be when she gets her ears pierced. Or whether she'll be one of those babies that giggles when she has a bath. Important stuff, everyone.

And then there's poor Rhea. Who has started to waddle when she walks. Which is incredibly cute, but takes alot of time out of each day.

Anyway, here's the news:

This is our new Doctor. He rocks. Kind of makes our last guy look like a first year resident. His name is Dr. Jacques Moritz and he's affiliated with St. Luke's Roosevelt hospital which is where we plan to have the baby. He's also a medical correspondent on ABC news.


















At out last appointment Rhea had to have a glucose tolerance test which checks for gestational diabetes -- a high blood sugar condition that some women get during pregnancy.

Poor girl had to drink a sugar solution that contained 50 grams of glucose and get it all down in five minutes.





























We've started to do a little clothes shopping. I'm a bit concerned this could turn into a problem. Yesterday I went to get 2 bagels from the bagel place a block away and somehow came back with 2 new outfits for the little peanut. Here's one of the dresses we picked up recently.





























For all of you who are worried about how Rhea is doing, don't worry. I'm making sure she gets all of the love, attention, and endless pampering she deserves. And believe me, it's hard work everyone...
