Lincoln's $1,000 Photo Shoot 10-26-07

After our 20 week ultrasound we were advised to see a specialist based on some concerns the Dr had. We were able to get into the specialist that Friday which was a huge blessing. They usually book out 4-6 weeks. We saw the specialist and he reassured us that our son was going to be just fine. Without going into too much detail the markers that they saw on our ultrasound were markers for down syndrome and they wanted to get a second opinion. The specialist did another ultrasound and did not see any of the other markers for Downs and felt that our son was going to be born healthy. Praise God. It was a long week for Eli and I but all in all it turned out that we got some more pictures of our son and we got to spend the weekend with my mom. We had a lot of people praying for Lincoln and God's hand was on him.

Here is his $1,000 photo shoot. Yep, that is what one ultrasound cost at the specialist.

Connor James Pepple joins the World!



My best friend Stacy delivered her baby boy today! He was born at 2:27 pm and was 6 pounds 13 ounces and 19 1/4 inches long. I just got home from the hospital and mom and baby are both doing well. Stacy ended up having to have a C-section because the cord was wrapped around Connor's neck. She is recovering well and is beaming with pride. Connor is super cute and healthy in every way. Stacy and I have been friends since we were 9 years old. We are two months apart in age and now we are going to have sons that are 6 months apart.

Praise God for his new creation!

GO ROCKIES!

My parents came out this past weekend for the Rockies game. We went on Sunday night and froze our butts off but it sure was fun. I wish we would have taken a picture. We had our ski gear on with rain gear on top. I wasn't able to get a hot chocolate until the 6th innning because they kept selling out of them.

My mom and I did a lot of shopping! She only has a super Wal-Mart in McCook so she shoppes me ragged when she is out here. We went to a baby shower on Saturday afternoon for my friend Maggie that is having twin boys. My mom really enjoyed meeting everyone and it made her feel at peace knowing that I have all of those great women from Church to help me through the pregnancy and when the baby is born.

Speaking of the baby...I am almost at the half way point. I am 19 weeks along. We go in on Monday at 3 to find out the sex of the baby. Be sure to check the blog on Monday night or Tuesday morning for the big announcement. So far my friend Brie from work that is due a week before me is having a boy and my friend Liz from college who is due a week before me as well is having a boy. Eli and I still have no feelings one way or another on what our baby is. We will truly be shocked either way.

I am still feeling good and getting bigger by the day. Eli smiles at me every night when I walk in the door and says, I think you have grown! I am doing the treadmill about twice a week right now. I would like to be doing more, but you have to start somewhere!

Dr. Appointment #4 10-1-07 17 weeks Pregnant

I had another Dr.'s appointment yesterday and Eli was able to come. They asked the normal questions and we listened to the heart beat. It was such a blessing to hear the babies heart beating. We have had a few ladies in our congregation miscarry recently and it just set our minds at ease to hear that our baby is still doing well. They didn't measure the heart rate this time, but the Dr said she thought it was fast, around 155. That kind of threw Eli and I off because every other time it has been in the 170's so we were thinking it was a girl.

The "SEX" appointment is on the 22nd at 3pm. We can't wait to find out what we are having. Eli and I are both leaning toward thinking it is a girl at this point, but we may be surprised. My mom is still determined that it is a girl, although she did have a baby boy dream the other night.

I have started rubbing my belly and feeling pregnant! I thank God multiple times a day for our little miracle and I just can't stop smiling!

Love you all!
