A Long Time...

Kelly is using the ancient Mayan Stairmaster to lose some weight.

In Mexico, Dzibilchaltun Mayan Ruins.

This is on the cruse from New Orleans to Mexico.

This was our little girl at 20 weeks. Janice is about 7 months pregnant now.

We will have another 4d ultrasound this coming Thursday.

My Dad visited us in December, and we had a GREAT time.

Sorry it has been so long since our last post. The baby (a girl) and Janice are both staying healthy. Here are some pictures.

Our First Ultrasound

We went a couple weeks ago for our first ultrasound and found out that the due date is April 6th, which is very close to my dad's b-day (9th). The Baby's heartbeat was 176 beats/minute. It was really neat, and we really enjoyed the visit.

I was very touched at the moment I saw that little teeny tiny thing. 1.8 cm...it was amazing. At the same time, I was happy I didn't see two of them in there. Kelly and I pray for this little one very often that he/she will be a healthy little baby. It was very awesome to listen to the heartbeat.

Waiting for the Doctor

Caption: "These are the ultrasound technicians who incorrectly told you you'd be having a girl. Grace has offered to re-wallpaper your nursery and Brenda will return any gender-specific gifts that you received."

Janice and I are still waiting for a second doctor's appointment with an O.B. doctor. Because of our HMO, we have to be referred from our primary care physician to a specialized doctor. The doctor's office told us that the O.B. doctor will call us for an appointment. When we didn't get a call for a while, we called the Primary Care office again to make sure they had referred us. They told us that they did and not to call the O.B. doctor, saying the office would contact us. It almost sounds like a bad job interview doesn't it? Anyway, here in a moment I'm going to call the O.B. doctor.

we're going to be parents...scary, yes

Just this week, we found out that Janice is not just feeling a bit sick to her stomach. She is pregnant! How do we feel, you ask? We are really excited! I just talked to a friend yesterday who has a newborn. He said, "Sleep comes in cycles." Okay, while we may not be looking forward to cyclic sleep, we still think it is fantastic that Janice is going to have a baby. Just wanted to let you know, in case you haven't heard. The doctor said she could be anywhere form 6-10 weeks pregnant, and that we will find out exactly how far along she is at our next doc. visit.



peace,

Kelly & Janice
