Long break

It has been a long while since I have posted. My main excuse is that I have been having migraines with this pregnancy and do not enjoy looking at a computer screen. I am starting to feel better and hope I am going to see some light. :)

We are in Utah right now visiting our families. We head home tomorrow so I will write more updates and post some pictures when I return home. Just to answer Maren's question, no, we are not having twins (:)) and yes, I finally went to the doctor. We find out the sex of the baby in 3-4 weeks and we don't care if it is boy or girl...we are just excited! (By the way Maren, I will call you back when I get home...it has been crazy here!)

Another thing, some of you close to me might remember my Aunt Abbi (my Mom's youngest sister). She is 10 months older than me and we grew up close like sisters. 9 days ago she was admitted to the hospital for pneumonia. She struggled to breathe for 3 days in ICU then they finally intubated her (put a tube down her throat to make her breathe). She actually got a string of Strep A that attacked her lungs. It has been a roller coaster of emotions and she is still not out of ICU. It looks like it will be a long road. She has a wonderful husband and a beautiful daughter. Please pray for their little family! She is one of the most thoughtful people I know and I just can't believe she is dealing with this. Thanks a lot!

What the heck!!!!!! You are pregnant? When were you going to call and tell us? Congrats!!!!! Well I am sorry you aren't feeling too well. I know how that goes. So you are having number 4 and we aren't even at number 3 yet. Well we will have another one probably sometime next year, I guess we won't catch up to you guys any time soon. Call me when you get back home. I would love to cat.

I can't believe about Abbi..how is she doing now? What a horrible thing to go through. I also hope you are starting to feel better, too.

Oh, I feel for you. I have gotten horrible headaches as well with this one (on top of feeling sick ALL day long) -- but I can't complain (I just can't do anything) -- I am so happy to be pregnant. Hope you start feeling better soon. So fun to share pregnancy things with you (now if we just lived close to each other).

you are so sweeet. I didn't even know you posted about me. We were like sisters I swear. I am glad to be here at home alive and kicking, but it was awful. I know all the prayers helped me to recover, I still need them.... some of my days are pretty tiring. I don't have a lot of strength, but I did make it through a trip to the zoo.
I remember Jylaire too. That is so fun to see old friends.
