My Pregnancy Status

I had another ultrasound last week to check on the placenta and see where we were at with everything.

...Going back to my 21 week ultrasound, the Dr was concerned that my placenta was too close to the opening of my cervix, which if it did cover it eventually I'd have "placenta previa" or partial placenta previa and have to deliver Cesarean section.

Well, last weeks ultrasound revealed no placenta near the cervix. I was so releaved! It had moved up as hoped and prayed for... I wanted to jump off the table and do a victory dance! I'm 31 weeks pregnant right now so I had to wait a frustrating and stressful 10 weeks to find out this news.

Even though I'm so releaved that I don't have to deliver c-section, I'm not completely in the clear. I have to go back next week for another ultrsound screening. The Dr is a little concerned with the babies size b/c she's measuring rally small for how far along I am (about 3 lbs). He wants to measure her growth and see how she's progressing in size. I'm not too terribly worried as long as she doesn't try to come early! Preston was born 2 days late and only weighed 6 lbs. I just have small babies and my Mom also had small babies. I was only about 6 lbs as well. Like I said, if she'll just hang tight and continue bakin in mama's oven for then next 8 weeks then everything will be just fine. I would love to have a fat chuncky baby but honestly, I'm really grateful I only have to push out 6lb babies.

Technologically handicaped

So the reason I haven't posted anything new in a while is because we got a new computer and my camera is not compatible with something... I don't know. Basically I can't upload any of my photos on my computer until i buy some dumb software from Polaroid and I'm annoyed. I have a lot of pictures I want to share and updates to give so until I figure out that mess don't expect a lot of posts from us. But for those who are curious and who we haven't seen around in a while here are some updates:

My birthday was last monday... unfortunately I spent the day sick but was able to celebrate it by going to dinner and a Jazz game (pictures coming soon)

Preston got his 1st ear infection and that was fun. He's finally back to his happy normal self and being cute ;o)

We've started attending our new ward... it'a actually a branch and so far we like it. Except that they called us after attending 1 week to give sacrament talks this sunday... they don't waist any time! I got called to be a primary teacher and I'm excited about that b/c I've never worked in primary and I think it will be fun. Oh and I only have to teach every other sunday so I can still attend relief society and get to know the sisters. Ty's still waiting to receive his calling.

And of course, my baby and I are growing everyday! I have some pictures of my belly that I want to post so those are coming soon as well ;o)

We miss our friends in our old ward. Please keep in touch and don't forget us!!
