GREAT and UNEXPECTED NEWS!!!
After waiting thirteen weeks for my very first Doctor's appointment...it was all worth the wait. Tears swelled up in my eyes when my Doctor had me hear the heart beat for the first time, because it was so reassuring that there was a little baby in my growing belly. The heart beat was 150 beats per minute, which is great.
After my physical, my doctor said that my uterus was larger. ??? What does that mean? I am either further along than I had expected, or I have twins. I went over and had an ultra-sound. They measured my sweet baby and it turns out I am two weeks further along that I had expected. Sorry for those of you who were hoping for twins...no twins this go around. My new due date is October 14th! I am actually 15 weeks today! Unfortunately, we lost two weeks of freedom!!! :)
And the other piece of awesome news....CASEY GETS HIS BOY!!! The Hogle name will live on! We are having a baby boy and we are thrilled. I might have to take a few weekends and spend the night with some of you girls to get out of this testosterone filled house. ;)
Anyways, we know it has been a while since we have updated you regarding our pregnancy, we just really wanted to wait until after our Doctor's appointment.
Thank you for all of your prayers and support!! My next ultrasound will be in four weeks!
I wish that Tulips were not as short lived as they are in life! They are so beautiful. It was a blast going up to the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival with Ed, Dorothy, Jamie and Avery. We all had a great time, even Avery! :) We planned out our picture poses for next year with the kiddos!
I believe that God gave us Dodge to get us used to waking up early. Every morning at 5:00am Dodge puts his two front paws on my bed side and he uses his nose to nudge the blankets off of me. I try and get him to let me sleep in until at least 5:45, but I lay awake with one eye open waiting for him to jump up on me again. So we get up and I take him to a big field by our house. He chases tennis balls for about an hour...if we are out there for at least forty minutes, I can almost guarantee that he will sleep during the day! :) At least he is more calm during the day.
Is Dodge being tortured, or is he just cold?? :) I must be nesting...I'm already playing dress up with my male Dog. ha ha ha
