Anniversary and Birthday!!

Today is Jared's 31st birthday. Happy birthday HUB!!! I love you!!!
And the 21st was Jared's and my 3rd anniversary! It's gone by sooooo fast but at the same time it feels like we've been together forever! ....if that makes sense :-) So much has happened. Babies, jobs, houses, vacations. It's definitely been the best 3 years of my life, with all the crazy ups and downs. Just like I tell him, I'm looking forward to all the years to come and seeing him old and wrinkled one day :-)

YAAAAAAAY!!!!!

Today the genetic counselor called and her first words were "I have good news!" Just what I wanted to hear of course!! She said the preliminary results of the amnio (it's done in 2 parts) show our baby boy does NOT have abnormal chromosomes!!! So needless to say we are sooooooo soo sOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!! Thanks for everyones prayers :-)

Baby Update

OK ... So we were supposed to have the big 5 month ultrasound on the 7th, but they canceled it because it was at the Dr's office and they said we need to have all our ultrasounds with the perinatologist at the hospital now. So yesterday was that appointment. Baby's heart & brain.... everything look good. BUT... they found that the liver is involved in the omphalocele. This means it's going to be a more timely process to fix our little honey when he's born. The perinatologist also suggested that if we did want to get an amniocentesis we do it now. She said after 24 weeks (I'm close to 22 weeks) the chance of it putting me into labor is higher. But if we wait to far into the pregnancy I could end up having the baby before even getting the results and it would end up being a lost cause. We really want to know for sure if baby has a chromosomal defect so that we can plan the delivery and all. It's kind of complicated... If he does have the chromosome disorder they won't even do the surgery. Needless to say, we did the amnio yesterday. I'm feeling fine now. And you'd think I'd be going nuts waiting for the results, but I'm not. I think Ive waited so long that what's a few more days? Plus I just have a good feeling, I think he's going to be ok :-)

A Bum??? :-)

Since I've been pregos I have a little more up top of you know what I mean....Which is definitely not usually the case! The other night Braylee was in her highchair and I leaned down to talk to her, evidently giving her a good "view". She pointed at my temporary cleavage and said "bum bum!" Then my friend Cassie who has cleavage that's not temporary came over...and the first thing Braylee said when Cass picked her up of course was "bum bum!" as she's pointing at her cleavage HA HA HA :-) Let's just hope she doesn't do it in the grocery store to some lady I don't know. Could you just see it? "Bum bum!" as she pointing at some very offended lady!
Oh yah.... and THEN Jared told me that he had his arm bent and Braylee pointed at the crease of skin by his elbow and said "wee wee!" (that's what she calls her girl part). She cracks me up! :-)
