Paroled

Why hello there.

It's been awhile.

I've been just trying to make it through the last 10 days. Nose to the grindstone and all that.

I had two important appointments this week and I was desperately trying to focus on getting past them.

Yesterday at the OB's office I found out that my hemorrhage has totally resolved. So I am off the progesterone, and, more importantly, off the house arrest. Paroled! (And more importantly, after six VERY long weeks, the bleeding has stopped.)

Today I had my first trimester screening at the hospital and I told myself that once it was over and everything I was fine I was going to finally admit that I am indeed "pregnant".

They saw nothing alarming, and sent us home with our first photos.

So, we've told Jack he is going to be a brother.

And I am going to spend some time getting used to the idea that we are going to have another sweet baby. (God willing and the creek don't rise.)

Want to have a little peek at the wee one? (Baby is 12 weeks 5 days, we are so close to the second trimester I can almost smell it.)
Miraculous.

I am feeling extremely hormonal (read: emotional) lately, so, I better get off before I start to cry.

Back very soon with a lovely gift that arrived in the mail in the middle of all this. :-)
