Very Blessed!

Today has been a true blessing for me and my family! I went to the doctor today and they hooked me up to a monitor. I had to lay on my back hooked up to a machine that monitors Autumn's heartrate and movements. It also monitors me for contractions. Despite the fact that I layed there so long I had a catch in my back, everything looked extremely good. No contractions yet! Dr. Yarbrough informed me that I would start having bi-weekly visits and that I would have another ultrasound Thursday. She said I would probably be sick of seeing her very soon. However, I feel extremely blessed to have a doctor who cares enough to make sure my baby is safe. I know I wouldn't have to go as often, if it wasn't for the whole gestatoinal thing. But, I like knowing that I can listen to and see my baby more often.

The SPED team gave me a wonderful baby shower this afternoon Another great blessing to have such wonderful co-workers. We received lots of cute onesies, blankets, towels, etc. Gina made me a "diaper cake" and they hung a clothesline of bibs and socks across the room. Autumn is going to be a spoiled baby. Nana also bought her a birthstone braclet. Fancy!!! Lee and I can't wait to put all goodies to use. :)
