Happy News!

Ray baby #3 is on the way! We are very excited and hopeful that all will be well with our little one.

I am about 12 weeks along, although with some of the problems I've been having, it seems more like 30. In these short 12 weeks I've had 5 ultrasounds already and a few scary bleeding episodes. I have what's called a subchorionic hemorrhage, which is a large word that basically means the placenta is pulling away and causing trouble. I'm supposed to be "taking it really easy", so I'm doing that the best I can with help from my family. I don't know what I would have done if I had stayed in California and had these problems. I'm so grateful to them for all they are doing for my kids and I.

My due date is November 4, and Jason returns the end of August. So, he'll be around to deal with me at my crankiest and biggest. Dreams of looking super hot and toned when he returns have been replaced with nightmares of outweighing him by 30 pounds and him not recognizing me when he gets off the plane.

We feel very blessed to be expecting another child and to be surrounded by such a wonderful support system while Jason is gone. Hopefully our children will survive 4 more months without their Dad......their Mom isn't a very chipper pregnant person.
