My Own Little Family

Lots of things have happened in the last little bit! Exciting things and things that have allowed us as our own family, to grow. :)

As most of you know, we are expecting our first child in April of 2011 and we could not be happier about it! Everything about this baby has been an absolute miracle! Things are going well, the baby is growing the way it should be and I am feeling the signs and symptoms of pregnancy for sure! Nausea has calmed down a bit, not totally gone, but I'm learning to cope. :) An update from the Doctor was :::::
Weight-lost some, but ok at this point.
Blood Pressure- Perfect!
Signs and Symptoms- Perfectly Normal.
How far along- 15 weeks 5 days.
Next appointment- Ultrasound to reveal the gender and to take a closer look and measurments of all the bones and organs!

On another very exciting front.....

JR has been accepted to all 3 medical schools he applied to!!
Now comes the difficult decisions of where to move our little family. We have prayed and eliminated one of the schools so now we are down to SC and GA. There is a lot to think about in this situation as both schools are great and offer different advantages as far as area demographically. We also have to consider cost of living and the amount of loans we will be able to take out. (I will be at home with the baby, so we will be dependant on his loans completely).
Very exciting and encouraging to JR that 3 schools have alreay accepted him this soon into the application process! Now, we pray and wait :)

As I mentioned before, the house is on the market. While there have been no offers yet, we have felt the need to try and pack up a little in anticipation. We have made arrangements on where to live when the house does sell, until we move in June/July but the actual moving process itself will be hectic.

We are so excited to get going with everything, after feeling like we have been on hold for 2 years things are really looking up!! We ask for lots of prayers during this time and of course, thank each and every one of you for your friendship to us. Love ya!

I'm so excited to be in this phase of life with my own little family :)
