8 Years Ago

I had planned to write this post last night but we weren’t able to connect to the internet so here it is a day late.

It was 8 years ago yesterday that Scott and I got married!!! I can hardly believe we’re only 2 years from hitting the 10 year mark! In some ways it seems like just yesterday that we became husband & wife and in other ways it seems like it’s always been this way. 🙂 What a wonderful marriage we’ve had so far. God has been so good to us. He continues to carry us through the hard times and bless us with undeserved gifts from His hands. I pray that Scott and I have many, many more years together!

Yesterday was a wonderful day for more than one reason. Not only did we celebrate 8 years of marriage but we also got to hear our precious little one’s heartbeat again! Yes, we had our second midwife appointment yesterday. Everything went very well! I was negative again for protein and glucose. My weight was within a pound of where it had been 6 weeks ago! My blood pressure was 109/71. My iron levels are nice and high. And our baby’s heart rate was 144 bpm. What a beautiful sound! Our next appointment is on July 14th and I will be almost 24 weeks along by then.

I can’t believe I’m only 1 week away from halfway right now! I’m feeling more and more movement all the time. I feel the baby several times each day now. I’ll post a picture of my 20 week belly next week!. 🙂
