King Julians Birthday

Today is Julians Birthday. I call him King Julian because our little cousin Rudy calls him this. It is the name of one of the characters in Madagascar. And I think it is super cute when he says it. And he has the attitude to go with the title to be honest. He is the boss so far. Soon he will have some competition. Especially is Logan is going to have his moms attitude.

So I had an Echo cardiogram scheduled with Dr. Gobal from U of M. The echo was for Logan not me. Apparently when you have Lupus, you can sometimes develop a heart condition in the baby. Yes...something else. Well Michelle, Julian and Dad went with me to this apt. It was at the Sparrow Professional Building/Dr. Roths office. Apparently Dr. Gobal only comes in when requested. So baby Logan is special.

I was really impressed with her right away. She was super nice. And of course she just seemed smart as hell. We talked for about 20 minute prior to the test. Then her and the tech did the ultrasound on the baby. She made comments the entire time like "perfect", "beautiful baby", "excellent" etc... All terms I like to hear. In the end, she said she sees no cause for concern. Everything appeared to be in place. She said normally they do this exam at about 20 weeks. However with the ribs in the way its a little harder to get clear pictures. But what she saw, did not alarm her at all. And she thinks he looks great. And she sees no need to order a follow up echo after he is born.

So off we went to lunch at Bob Evans. We were waited on by Aunt Caroline. We ran in to Karen Cramball. I had not seen her in months. So it was nice to chat for a few. They gave Julian balloon. And that of course kept him busy most of lunch.

Stefanie had been sick for a few days, so celebrating was off the plate for his bday. To be scheduled for a later date. He gets spoiled all the time anyway....so he for sure is not going without. So in the mean time...Happy 1st Birthday King Julian!
