Quick Update

This is a quick update for 2 reasons...
1. I don't really have much to update. We did have an ultrasound today & the baby measured 3 oz. & was right on target for 14 weeks. We didn't get a clear face shot - but a beautiful profile! ;)
The rib cage looked good so that was very reassuring. God gave us lots of laughter- mostly at ourselves & the bizarre questions we come to an ultrasound with - we aren't the "typical" pregnant couple due to our experiences. My blood pressure continues to be high for me - we think it's due to the stress & tension of ultrasounds for us. The baby was pretty tightly curled up so we didn't get a very clear picture of hands & feet - we'll try again in a month. We're trying to continue to feel peace with a lack of definite answers.
He offered to send us to the specialist but we think we will wait & see what happens in a month.
We did see some kicking & even heard it kick while we listening to the heart (158 bpm.)
We are praying for peace - whatever the results. Frankly, though having another child with limb differences overwhelms me, I feel scared of having hands & feet - perhaps this sounds crazy but I'm pretty wild about Will's hands & feet & I feel we have been abundantly blessed. For instance...
2. I don't have time to update because Will & I are headed to East Texas very early tomorrow morning to WORK on the ABC EXTREME HOME MAKEOVER HOUSE!!!! (Go about 2 posts down to see our connection to the family receiving the home!) We just got the call today that there are spots available for us! Will's tools are packed ( ;) ) & I'm headed to the job site tomorrow!!!! Pictures coming soon!!!!! :) Hopefully, we'll meet Ty! :)
Got to get packing & straighten my house!

Thank you for continuing to pray that God will prepare us to parent this child - however He forms them!
