Sable's going to be a big sister!

Joel and I are SO excited!

July 24th
Joel finds a positive pregnancy test in the bathroom and wonders "Why isn't Keri freaking out?" I hadn't seen the + sign yet so Joel got to tell me that I'm pregnant.

July 25th
Called my Doctor, made a plan.

July 26th
Blood test for pregnancy and hcg level check

July 27th
Pregnancy confirmed, feeling VERY hungry

July 28th
HCG levels are perfect (worrying less)! Most likely not another ectopic pregnancy.
Going in on Monday to determine date of first ultrasound.

DUE DATE: March 29th 2012

Summer time!

Todays' funny moments

Funny #1 My sister Stacy was driving through Olympia on her way to camp and stopped at our mom's house to see mom, me and Sable. (Stacy adores her little niece) Stacy came bursting through the door, almost tripping on me and scooped up Sable before I even saw her. Both Aunt and Niece were happy to see each other. From today on I will not sit in the direct path of a woman missing her young family members. I was lucky to survive!

Funny #2 Sable and I are watching Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. There is a scene where Hermione quickly put her hand in the air to answer a question. Sable saw it and did it just as fast. I laughed so hard...

Suzanna called him "The Joey with the dragon tattoo"

At the park

Sable did a great job at The Center for Pediatric Dentistry today. She knows where her teeth are. The office was close and very nice. We think Sable had a little crush on the Dentist, when he walked into the room she giggled and squealed. Everyone was calling her "Little Shirley Temple."
Joel and I were given high praise for her diet. The Dentist said her teeth looked great and he could tell she didn't eat a lot of "bad" foods. *good parent sigh* I would recommend this place to anyone!

Todays adventures

Sable loves ketsup or maybe just the dipping part

Papa John's visit

Happy birthday Papa John!

Joel's homework assignment

We're officially learning to much

Today Joel, Sable and I went to Children's Hospital for Sable's Genetic test. There were a lot of questions asked and answered. Sable is still without a diagnosis though we've crossed 2 contenders off the list: She officially dose NOT have Angelman Syndrome or Rett Syndrome. The nurses and Doctors all thought she was cute and loved her hair. We are doing the Genetic blood test tomorrow and we will be putting off the MRI for a few years. It's just amazing how many people are walking around without problems! So much can go wrong and so easily that it's shocking.

Happy 4th of July!
