The Hanique's

Check up

Yesterday I had another check up. The baby's doing fine. The heart beat is good and the baby is about 20 cm long.
They did a blood test and I have type A neg. This means that there potentially is a risk of the so called rhesus factor. I'll get a rhesus D antigen injection at 30 weeks of pregnancy just as a precaution and that should take away any risk.
Also I'm experiencing pain in my pelvis which can be annoying but well worth it considering the end result. In 4 weeks I'll get another ultra sound and then they'll be able to tell if it's a boy or girl!

4landenrit - 4 countries tour

Last weekend we had the annual '4 countries tour' with our car and motorcycle club. Needless to say it was great.

Great News

If you haven't already heard I apologize you have to find out through this blog. As most of you already know; we are expecting our first child!
We had the first diagnostic ultrasound and everything looked good. The heart is beating, all limbs are growing as they should and they confirmed it's not twins :)

Third week of our trip - Mission San Juan Capistrano

We had a tour of one of the missions of California; San Juan Capistrano. It's said to be one of the most beautiful missions. And in addition to being a great historic site and learning experience it's also still an active church! Some of the pictures didn't come out real good but they still give an impression of the site.

Third week of our trip - Tourist attractions

It's been a while since I've posted anything. Things have been kind of crazy coming back home and getting straight back to work and normal everyday life. I came across some more pictures of our stay in California. We decided to do some touristy stuff so we went to see Hollywood, Beverly Hills and Rodeo Drive. Our cousins Steffani and Andy joined us with their daughter Amberlin. It was great!

And to complete this wonderful day we had a really nice dinner at Lawry's, which is famous for it's prime rib.

Third week of our trip - Beaches

For those of you who don't know: California is situated at the west coast of the United States. So there's lots of beaches you can go to. And since "It never rains in Southern California", according to Albert Hammond's song, it's always nice to go to the ocean. So we spent quit some time at different locations along the coast; Dana Point, San Clemente, New Port and Laguna Beach.

This is Dana Point.

We had breakfast at the Beachcomber at Newport Beach.

Third week of our trip - celebrating family birthdays

During the third week of our trip we got to see the family again. We celebrated the March birthdays - aunt LeeAnn, Steffanie, Dad and my (belated) birthday. Grandma made us taco's, yummie!
