Heartbeats . . .

Two hearts beat as ooooonnne . . . . because there are officially two hearts beating inside of me; my own and my baby's. Today was my first prenatal visit for my pregnancy. I heard that little heartbeat for the first time. Ironically, I think my own heart skipped a beat when I heard it. And even though this is my third time on the baby-go-round, it still made me feel like crying. It's miraculous. There is already a life growing inside of me.

For those of you who I haven't talked to recently, I am in my 11th week of pregnancy. It's been a rough first trimester, my roughest. Lots of throwing up, moaning on the couch, heaving at the sight of the fridge, and hardly able to get out of bed. I am doing slightly better now. On the plus side, I haven't gained the ten pounds that I normally gain the first trimester. I think I would rather be fat. Although . . . normally I am sick and still gain the ten pounds. Whatever.

On a side note, I always see polygamist women when I go to the dr/hospital and today was no exception. I noticed today that they were dressing a little nicer. Hmm. Maybe Warren Jeff's absence has loosened things. They're really slacking off (I saw some LACE!).

Oh wow! I had no idea. Congratulations! That is so exciting and wonderful news! Sorry you are so sick - now I'm wondering if it's a boy or a girl.

We missed you lots in Utah. Hope we can catch you next time...

You scared me. At first I thought you were saying you were having twins! And by the way...I wore lace out the other day...it was exhilarating! (JOKE)
