Here we (me literally) grow again :)

So Im sure if you've looked at all on my blog you've seen the little tickers on the side that show that I am pregnant. Well today it became more real because Jas and I had our first ultrasound.  Now this is my third go around so you'd think Id be a relaxed pro at all of this stuff by now. But, like all the times before I went into this appointment nauseous with worry. I worry about three main things... 

1. that there will be no heart rate 
2. that there will be more than one 
3. that something will be glaringly wrong and we'll get that long silent moment from the tech and she'll say she has to go and get the doc

Thankfully none of the above happened. Our little lima bean was measuring just under an inch in length and had a strong steady heart rate of 159. Here he/she is :)


Im so grateful for the chance to be a mom to another precious baby.  The worrying will never stop, mostly because of where I work, but the worry and exhaustion that comes with being pregnant will all be worth it once I can hold this little baby.  

So...here we go again :) Im a little nervous about how Ill handle three little ones but Im also excited for the adventure and the chance to raise three little kids that will be close in age that can grow up together and really love playing and fighting together.  So here's hoping for a fast, pain free, nine months with minimal weight gain and no stretch marks. Hey...a girl can dream right?
