Happy New Year!

We hope that you had a Merry Christmas and are having a Happy New Year!  We certainly had a great, warm Christmas and are now working on getting back to things in this New Year.  While we have many challenges ahead of us, we are looking forward to meeting our little girl in a few short months.

In accordance with my doctor’s office, we have been going with the no news is good news policy.  There really isn’t much to report, so sorry that there have not been any updates.  I am officially in the third trimester (no matter what way you measure it).  I did have an appointment with my ob before Christmas and things were fine – my weight, my blood pressure, the baby’s heartbeat.  They did do a blood drawn (and gave me a huge bruise on my arm) to test for gestational diabetes and in accordance with the policy above, I have not heard from them.  I usually like to follow-up because the confirmation always makes me feel better.  With the holidays and traveling, I have not been able to do so.

Coming up next we have another echo this week that will be here at our local hospital.  Hopefully there will not be any major news to come out of that.  We expect that things will look the same and hope that there will not be anything new and unexpected. 

We hope that this post finds you and your family well and that you have a blessed and happy 2012!
