JJ and the The Bean

Joel and I made the decision to give JJ to a new home on Saturday. We actually found the owners of JJ's brother, Wilhelm. Come to find out JJ was actually found on the streets as a newborn kitten eating tinfoil. Amber and James (who are JJ's new owners) nursed JJ and his brother back to health. At that time, Amber and James couldn't keep JJ so they gave him up. They actually have pictures of JJ and Wilhelm as kittens! Long story short, JJ is now reunited with his brother and hopefully will LOVE having a new (and old) playmate. We really really miss him!

This picture is just too funny!!

On a lighter and much happier note, I had my 19wk appointment and ultrasound on Monday. Everything looks great! Mommy and baby are very healthy! The bean's head measured in the 25th percentile and the body is in the 40th percentile...just the way it should be. The heart rate is now in the 130's, which based on the old wives tales we're having a boy. BUT...we didn't find out! We'll just have to wait til June to see what we are blessed with. My cousin Mary did perform another old wives tale by holding a necklace with a little weight on the end very still...then all of a sudden the necklace started moving back and forth in a straight line which indicates that it's a boy as well! If the necklace had started moving in a circle, that means it's a girl...there was NO circle action going on!
