It has been a while since I blogged. I was in a two week wait for the first ultrasound. I thought y'all might get tired of hearing dog stories while we were waiting, and I have been falling asleep around 8:30 everynight! Scary!
I think I will have to start blogging in the morning.
The first ultrasound went great! We saw the little flutter of the heartbeat, and it was only one heartbeat! So we have a singleton. I am really excited that we only have one! I don't know if my little Bolty Bolt could of handled two babies. He is a little spoiled!
At the Dr the other day, I was mentioning that I am already having to buy bigger clothes, and he said that is not suprising. With IVF patients their ovaries are already swollen from all the injections, well they continue to swell during the first part of the first trimester because of all the hormones. He informed us the more viable and healthy the pregnancy is the more the ovaries are swollen. We are in good shape there. I also asked about working out, he told me not until the end of the first trimester because how large my ovaries are. They could twist and turn in there, resulting in having to have surgery to have them turned back around. I think I will continue to lay low.
I have been sick every now and then! I think my poop patrol days for the dogs might be over! Yesterday I dry heaved as I was on patrol! However, Gary is out of town for the next week, I am going to have to find a clothespin or something to get the job done. Just another reason to move home!
We need prayer about that as well! There is a job opening in Texas and Gary really wants the job! I just pray that God's will is done. I do have one little thing to say about this. My nieces pray that we come home, our friends kids are praying that we come home. Soooo, maybe God could honor those prayers! It would be a huge faith builder for those little ones. Speaking of my nieces.
Gary and I called them on Friday to tell them they were going to have a cousin! Savannah was so excited, and Sicily well, I think she was a bit shocked! I asked her if whe wanted a boy or a girl, she promptly replied a boy! I was like great! That is exactly what Gary and I want! The next day my sister-in-law Rachelle texted me this message. "Sicily said she talked to God and you are having a boy!!! Leave it to her to ask God!
I love it, because Gary and I decided not to find out what we are having! So maybe now we have a little insight!
Continuing to pray for peace! I find myself letting my mind wonder sometimes! Thanks to everyone for the continued prayer and support!

I'm so excited for you! We'll pray for a healthy pregnancy and healthy baby -- boy or girl!
Love you,

Thanks for updating. I was out of pocket Friday, and Saturday got away from me. But, you were in my prayers. LOVED those first sonograms, that confirmation that that was life. So excited for y'all!
Hey Kim, this is Lisa (Borland). Just happened on your blog from FB posts. Congratulations on the pregnancy! That is so great! Lynette went through infertility stuff and I know how tuff it can be. I will pray for a perfect healthy baby and for your wanting to move home to Texas. We lived in VA for four years and although it was a blessing it was really hard to be so far from family. Take care and I will be praying for you!
