1st Trimester Screening Results

This week Jeremy and I took a trip to Baltimore, northern Virginia, and then to Fredericksburg, Virginia for Sarrina and Mark's wedding. While we were on a boat tour of the National Harbor and Alexandria, Virginia my cell phone rang. I knew I wouldn't be able to hear anything over the boat engine so I let it go to voicemail. Once we got to dry land I listened to the voicemail. It was the doctor's office and they had some "lab results [they] wanted to discuss" with me. That is about the scariest voicemail you could leave on a mom's phone. You have to understand that I have had "lab results [they] wanted to discuss" before in my life and it hasn't been a good thing at all. Of course, Jeremy asked about the voicemail and once I told him he broke out into a sweat and was insisting that I call them back right away. After a few tries I got ahold of the nurse and she informed me that the first trimester screening was negative which means that the baby does not have Down syndrome or Edwards syndrome! Despite these results, I think we are still going to go through with the echo at this time just to be safe.

About Us

Edmond, Oklahoma, United States
Jeremy and I met in high school. We were members of the same church youth group. One night before youth group it was raining very hard. My mom suggested that I call Jeremy for a ride. I really didn't want to- being a lowly sophomore it wouldn't be very cool to call a senior for a ride. For some reason (most likely because of God's prodding) I called Jeremy. Within the next week we hung out three more times. Then I came down with Mono, but I still had the strength to ask Jeremy to be my date to a Saddie Hawkins dance. Jeremy of course said yes. A few days before the dance Jeremy asked me to date him at Gumby's Pizza after a friend's baptism and wrecking his car. We have been inseparable ever since. After 6 years of dating, Jeremy and I said "I do". The last year and a half has been a whirlwind. Jeremy moved to KC while I finished my nursing degree. I began my nursing career and now Jeremy will be graduating in May. This May also brings more change as we will be moving and starting new jobs in Edmond, Oklahoma. In addition we found out that we are expecting our first child to arrive in December. Follow our blog as God takes us on the wonderful journey of building our family.
