home for sale

As of Saturday, our house is officially for sale!  Hopefully someone will like it and want to buy it.  

better late than never

Okay, so this is a little late but Mom and Dad's 40th anniversary was in June and they decided to surprise us!  We met at their house and took a HUGE limo downtown to Navy Pier.  We went for a lunch cruise on Lake Michigan and then spent some time at Navy Pier until the limo picked us back up to take us home.  We had a wonderful time...especially all of the kids.  Thanks again Mom and Dad!  Thanks Natalie for all of the photos.

Weeks 13-15

The most exciting thing happening in the last few weeks is my blood pressure.  It had been running  consistenly high (140s/90s) and not getting any better.  Granted, I only check it at work so some of it is probably related to anxiety.  I went and saw a high risk OB who thought it in my best interest to start me on meds...Labetelol 100mg twice daily.  Great news to hear at 30 years old:)  But, it has been much better, even at work, so I guess that means it is doing its job.  Other than that, I'm feeling pretty good.  The fatigue and nausea are much better, I'm just terribly hungry ALL OF THE TIME!

I saw my regular OB today.  Everything is moving along as it should...including the 10# weight gain already.  Next ultrasound is scheduled September 9...hopefully the babies will cooperate and we will find out genders.

15 weeks

Summer semester is over today and I dive right into fall semester next week.  I just need these babies to cooperate until December 8 to finish off the semester.

That's about all for now.

Ultrasound from July 27

Unfortunately this is the last of the 1st trimester ultrasounds, and it will probably be quite awhile before I have another one.
