"Baby #2 Update"

ok well this is a good and bad update. Iwill give you the short version of the story. Im 18 weeks almost 19 now. So on Tuesday evening I noticed I had a little bit of swelling in my ankles, not alot but enough that I noticed. So I pressed on my ankle to see if there was any indenting, which usually means some water is there. Well sure enough there was and I ofcourse freaked out inside, mainly because the same thing was happening when I was pregnant with devin. So I called my doctor on Wednsday morning, and they immediately got on the situation. My doctor ordered a 24 hour urine sample that I had to do from home. So I started that Thursday morning (today) I take it back into my doctor friday morning, then have to do blood as well. The urine is to determine if there is alot of protein present. It is one of the main beginning signs of preeclampsia. Anyhow I should hopefully have the results by monday, possibly Friday late afternoon. I will keep you all updated to let you know where things are at and how they are going. Wish us luck, I really am not in the mood for another growth restricted baby in the NICU.

"The Football Team"

I just realized that I haven't posted are little family in our halloween costumes. Devin had to wear his cute little helmet anyways, so we decided to make him a football player. I was the cheerleader, and chris was the coach. If you cant tell by the photos he is a fan of BYU. Are fist halloween with devin finally here was so much fun, last year this time he was still in my belly :) we just went to the grandparents houses, and to some friends houses to see their cute baby. Look how cute below Devin an Linkoln look.
