The Week of Doctor Visits

Well, this past week has to have been the busiest week I've had in a long time.
I went to the Endocrinologist on Tuesday. The doctor's report was WONDERFUL news!! She said that I just had a 'bizarre' case because it appears that any trace of hyperthyroidism is completely gone and I do not need to return to her office. I wouldn't really say it was 'bizarre' because we had really been praying...it was a GOD THING!!
On Thursday, I went to the baby doctor for my 12 week check-up. Everything looked good. We got to hear the little (FAST) baby heart beat. God is so amazing to have created such a miracle as birth. My doctor said that when I go back in 4 weeks, we will check to see if it's a boy/girl, YEAH!!! This week things have changed a little with me because I can tell that when I'm hungry, I AM HUNGRY and I NEED TO EAT right then!! I even woke up at 3 a.m. just starving to death on Saturday night and ate half a cup of yogurt. Well, this is all a new experience and I look forward to what changes lie ahead.

Our Little Surprise!!

Dustin and I are excited to announce that we are going to be parents on April 9th..

This was such a surprise because I have been having a few health problems and the last thing we were expecting was a baby, but God has definitely had a huge part in it all. I am starting on my 12th week with 28 more to go. We finally got around to telling all of our family this past weekend so now we can make our announcement public.


Thankfully, I have not had any morning sickness, even though certain pasta and salad dressings make my stomach churn. I am, however, loving fruit, fruit juice and milk. I just keep praying that I continue to feel good. If you have ANY advice on books to read and things to prepare for, PLEASE email me. I'll try to keep everyone informed when I get news. This week, I'll be going to the endocrinologist and my baby doctor, so I'm sure I'll be writing again.
