Heart of a champion

We had 2 big exciting events happen this weekend.  First, David heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time (Shannon had heard it in one of her doctor's visits previously).  We borrowed a prenatal heart listener from a friend a while back.  It says that you hear the baby's heart beat best in the 3rd trimester, but we thought that we'd give it a shot anyway.  After covering every inch of Shannon's belly a few times, we almost gave up, but then we heard a soft fast beating sound.  We zoned in on that area and sure enough, his little ticker was pounding away.  He even started kicking, which made a big thud on the amplifier.  But he's been kicking a lot lately, especially after Shannon has dessert or when he hears Bill Self's voice.

Which brings us to the other excitement, KU won a fifth straight Big 12 title in basketball.  Rock Chalk Jayhawk!
