Doctor's Appointment

Thursday Aug. 23rd we went to our first doctor appointment. We are 8 weeks along and the due date is 3/31. We got pictures from the ultrasound and heard the baby's heart beat. Doctor says everything looks good. Our next appointment is September 14th.

I'm a little more excited now that we have gone to the doctors. I still do not have any sickness and I feel great, except I get tired easily.

Sorry it took so long to post, but Thusrday when I got home from the doctor's I tried to post, but the computer was not working. Then we left for the Bristol Race Thursday afternoon. Mark and I just got home today.

Talk soon!

things come to you when you least except...

Today when I got home from work I checked my yahoo email and I received and email from an old friend. It was my friend Lizzie that I went to college with at Purdue North Central. I haven't talked to her in over 2 years. We lost contact after college. I thought about her and her family through out the years, but for some reason never looked for her. We had great times together. We were study buddies, lunch buddies, and great friends. She was the one friend that went through the whole Crohn's disease maddens with me.I sit here and wonder why I let a great friendship slip away. I can't change the past, but I surely can control the future of our friendship. I'm so happy that she contact me and can't wait to receive her next email.

Exciting News

Just wanted to let everyone know that Mark and I are expecting an addition to the family, yes we are pregnant. The emotions of knowing that we will be responsible of a child is a little overwhelming. When we first found out I was very upset and mad; mad that I would never be able to go to Cancun again, that life in this house is no longer about us and what if we can't take the stress or I'm like my own mother and just walk out. How am I suppose to know how to take care of a baby. They do not come with instructions. We have known for 4 weeks and the emotions are starting to calm down and I'm not as stressed, I'm still scared and mad at myself for not be really excited. I'm excited, but like some people get. You see them all smiles and glad and I'm not like that. I sure hope I get to that point. I think my dad is more excited than I am at this point.

We go to the doctor Aug. 23rd and I'll provide an update. It will be our first appointment, I'm hope going to the doctor's will make me even more excited.

Talk soon!
