Reinforcement and Motivation

Sadly, today John is working a 24 hour shift. :( However, since he is gone, I have no excuse for not working on my school work. Now, you may say, "Kari... you are blogging right now and NOT working on your school work." This is definitely TRUE!! BUT... since I got up this morning I have been working on school work. I told myself when I finished my portfolio which is due tomorrow, that I can blog. **Katrina- I'm bribing and motivating myself with internet instead of food this time. :)** Using reinforcement strategies so I can do the things I really want to do!! :)

So here I am... portfolio is finished, so I am getting to update you guys on the BIG day we had on Friday. As most of you know, we were had an ultrasound scheduled for Friday for our baby's anatomy scan. Not only would they look at the development of all of the baby, they would also tell us the gender, which we were VERY excited to find out. Since I am in there by myself at first, I chose not to look at the screen until John was able to be in there with me. I wanted to share that moment together. And WOW... what they can see these days using technology is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! Neither one of us could stop smiling. Thankfully, our little baby decided to cooperate today and did give us a little show! :)

From the poll we had on our blog, 54% thought it would be a boy while, 45% thought it would be a girl. Thanks to EVERYONE who voted in our poll. I loved watching the poll! It made me giggle to think that most of the time it stayed 50/50 since ultimately those are the odds! Thanks again!

I am leaving you with a picture of our baby! I'll let the picture doing the talking! :)

John's favorite picture because you can see his entire spine! So incredible!

I will post more pictures and video of our little baby boy wiggling around!

Now off to work on my paper!
Next bribe: Finish paper, then I get to catch up on the Grey's Anatomy episodes I have missed. :)
