Good News!-Picture Below

Tuesday I had another ultrasound of the baby. We got great news!

When we had our October ultrasound we were told that the baby had a choroid plexus brain cyst and that it could cause retardation if it did not go away. They told me they usually go away so we should be fine. Then they offered me an amniocenteses which I declined. The doctor didn't seem too concerned about the whole thing but Tom and I were very concerned. 

I was devastated. I couldn' believe that after trying to get pregnant for so many years that something like this would happen. I finally thought it through and decided God isn't going to let this happen, the cyst will go away and everything is going to be fine.

So on Tuesday we found out that the brain cyst is gone! Thank you Jesus! It was such an overwhelming relief.

I wanted to say Thank You to everyone that prayed/is praying for the baby and I! Your prayers mean the world to me. As we can see the power of prayer worked for my baby and I am very grateful!

Hey There Mr. Police Man...

Saturday night Mom, Grandma, Tom, his Mom and his Aunt and I went to the local Babies R Us to finish my baby registry. We had a fun time oohing and ahhing over everything then we grabbed some dinner together before we headed home. Mom, Grandma and I were in a separate car from Tom, his Mother and his Aunt. So we stop at Dairy Queen so I can grab a hot fudge sundae. We are driving back to Mom's house from the DQ and when we get in the neighborhood cars are stopped in the street and there is a cop blocking the way. Of course I start going off about the cop blocking the road and my ice cream is melting (priorities people). So I told Mom to pull around to see if we could squeak by. Of course we can't as the cop truly is blocking the entire road. Now all I can think of is how my hot fudge is melting my ice cream and we are going to be sitting here forever! I jump out of the car all the while mumbling how this is like living in the projects, etc, etc.

I approach the cop car to see what the heck is going on. I asked him and he answers, "No one is going through until the tow truck moves." Yes thank you asshole as I could see a tow truck from the part of the road that I was on. Of course I gave a curt, "Mother Fucker!" In response to his answer and stormed back to the car. I hear the cop yelling behind me: "Did you just call me a Mother Fucker!" Yikes! I pretended like I didn't hear him and continued to the car.  I will assume his ass was glued to his seat since he didn't bother to a) Tell the people that there was a tow truck moving a car and that the road would be briefly closed and b) Come chase after me when I stated the situation (not the police officer) was a Mother Fucker.

I call Tom to see where he is and low and behold he is behind us waiting. I get in his car and we go back to our house. I ate my hot fudge sundae in his car. No one was arrested. Good times!

In retrospect I can see how crazy people yell at cops and rip there tickets up and throw them in the street. On Saturday I was that crazy person!

(As a side note: I don't like eating ice-cream in the car or in the dark, which is why I was so pissed.)

'Tis The Season-Updated

We finally bought a real Chistmas tree! Tom grew up with the real variety, I with the fake. It doesn't really bother me that we never had a real tree but Tom could not stand it! So this year we got a real tree and retired the "Charlie Brown" Christmas tree.

I must admit, I am enjoying the smell of the real and it is a pretty nice tree to look at.

Here she goes:

We should have it decorated sometime this week, if all goes well!

Update:

With minimal amount of cussing we got the tree decorated!  ;-)

Morning Person

Are you one?

Do you greet the day with enthusiasm?

Are you "hateful" like me?

I loathe waking up in the morning. That alarm clock beeping just puts me in the foulest of moods. (Not to mention I hit the snooze about five times) I really want one of those alarm clocks that wake you up to sounds of the rainforest or the ocean. That would be a delightful change of pace!

The morning people kick into high gear when I get to work. At seven in the morning. Seven. In. The. Morning. What is there to be so chipper about that damn early? I guess if I had a gallon of coffee in the morning I would be all sunbeams and rainbows too. Maybe that is the key, drink a gallon of coffee. Interesting...

So if you ever see me in the morning, save the small talk for noon or later. I really won't be receptive prior to twelve.

Awesome-O

So yesterday, a little bird told me that, if a certain individual was catching babies while I am delivering that said little bird would be able to be in the room! I am super excited! So now the moon and stars need to align so that I will be delivering while this individual is on duty.

It could happen.

At our local hospital you can only have two people and your spouse. So I am having Tom (of course), my mom and his mom. However, I really, really, really wanted my best friend there so, this just might play out in my favor.

I mean you only have your first child once, you should be allowed to have whomever you please in the room.

Not Much To Say...

Or atleast that I would write on here.

I am keeping my inside thoughts inside for once.

Dream Me A Dream...

I guess it has been about a month and a half ago by now. I had a dream that I was having a baby girl and she had red hair and green eyes. She looked just like her daddy, it was so real. She was laughing and everything, she wasn't a newborn but maybe about six months or so old. It was all very strange. Of course at the time of the dream I still thought I might be having a boy even though my dream was showing me otherwise. So that leads me to wonder? Do your dreams "come true" when you are pregnant and dream of your baby? My MIL seems to think so. When she was pregnant with Tom she had a dream about him and everything came true, very freaky I know.

Not too long after my dream my manager had a dream about me and the baby. The baby had curly hair! It was a girl and she had curly hair. Mind you all of these dreams are prior to finding out that the baby is indeed a girl.

Just this weekend my manager had another dream about my baby. This dream was almost like it took her breath away, she kept telling me, "Heather, she was just so beautiful!"

So do you think these dreams are true? Do you know of anyone whose pregnant dreams came true?

I think it would be a hoot if this baby came out nothing like the dream I had of what she looked like! HAHA!

Thoughts All A Flutter...

I know I posted the babies pics and dipped out for a few days, I do apologize. Everything is fine or at-least it is starting to feel that way again.

I had my OB appointment today for the month and everything looks good. The babies  heartbeat was good and my 16week genetic blood-work tests came back all normal! Woo-hoo! I have been having a lot of back pain lately so I was able to get a note from the doctor to wear sneakers at work! Muhuwahaha! My back was feeling better from when I lost weight (before I became pregnant) but my belly is pulling it all out of kilter.

I will have my next ultrasound at the end of this month (another level II) and in December I will have a fetal echo cardiogram to make sure my diabetes isn't affecting the babies heart.

I spotted Bam Margera this weekend whilst driving through West Chester, this is my second MTV celebrity sighting.

I guess that is all the news that is news.
