Elder Pendleton's Farewell

Today we went to my cousin's Ward to listen to him speak one last time before he goes into the MTC to start his mission.  I can't believe that Jake is old enough to serve a mission!  As I sat in Sacrament meeting listening to him speak and trying to keep my two little ones semi quiet I realized that it was just 12 years ago that he sat with his parents and little brothers and listened to my farewell talk before I left on my Mission.  And at that time he was the same age that Aaron is now.  It's funny how life works isent' it?  That means that in 12 years it will be my little Aaron who will be leaving to go on his mission.

A not so fun support group meeting

Yea for me personally a miscarriage would be far easier than what we did go through for Colette, but I would never say to anyone that had a miscarriage that what I went through was far worse than what they went through.  I would never dream of it!  Yet I had to sit through ...

Another Ultrasound update

Today I went to the Hospital and had another Ultra sound with Maternal Fetal Medicine.  Other than both of the babies being in kind of a funky position  everything looks great.  And the babies are not measuring small by any means!  Baby A is about 2lbs 8 oz and Baby B is about 2lbs 11oz.  But it was good to see their little hearts beating away and watch them snuggle together.  I have a little break from dr's appointments for a couple of weeks but it will be fun to see how much they have grown the next time we get to have a peek at them.
