DDA Chapter 9

[UP Disney]

Well, I have my photopass CD ordered. They were due to start expiring today. They have made some changes and it seemed to be much faster editing the pictures that it was in March.

 

[UP Disney]

We could. Can you come up with a saying to add?

MVMCP in one ear and 2008 in the other?

Or DDA Friends in one ear and MVMCP in the other?

So, I got a call at 9:30 this morning from my doctor's office. It was the nurse (who I just love). She said, "I have been thinking about you all night. I came in early to the office to look at the test results again, and found Dr. Smith doing the same thing. She agrees with the high risk doctor that the level is not high enough to cause you any concern. The fact that you are over 40 and pregnant is enough to push your numbers that high. You are not to lose any sleep over it!" So, the earliest I can get to the high risk doctor is the 25th of August (guess there's not much cause for concern or they'd get me in sooner, right?). They cancelled my ultrasound on the 22nd, and I'll just go to the one on the 25th with the high risk people.

I'm just going to put it out of my mind and go on about my business. With all the prayers I felt from all of you last night, I had a really peaceful night, with dreams about a healthy baby (no gender revelation, though), so I'm going to go with that!

What a blessing your doctor and nurse must be. I'm glad that you had a peaceful night. You all continue in our prayers always.

I'm flying again tonight. Let's go fly a kite! I had to take some sinus medication again. I couldn't take any yesterday during the day because I had too much work to do and needed to be able to concentrate.

What a wonderful office, to genuinely care about you like that! I'm so glad you had a peaceful night. The prayers will continue!

Playing around with photoshop. I just did this like 20 minutes ago:

...and went to do it again with another picture and of course, I don't remember how to do it.

Both designs are great!

 

[tmfranlk]

yay for blue dreams!!! I've been trying to picture this child as a girl, but I just can't! I just have a feeling he will be a boy! I hope it's not just wishful thinking. Of course, we'll love a girl, too, but a boy would be super!

At least you won't have to call Theresa for the results! I'll be posting as soon as I can! Of course, we're still planning on taking the kids to the ultrasound. They have had 2 cousins with Down's syndrome, and we explained to them that there's a slight chance that our baby will have it. They all want to be at the ultrasound, so I'm guessing that afterwards, we'll go out to celebrate either gender and a clean slate from the doctor (how's that for positive thinking?).

I've been trying to remember if there was a gender in the dream I had about visiting you several months ago. I don't think there was though. Just a baby...and here "he" comes!

I wouldn't mind having the ultrasound NOW, but I am kind of relieved that the doctor's don't think it's urgent enough to warrant a NOW, NOW, NOW! reaction. So, I'm going to be happy with that!

We are leaving for camping at a lake tomorrow morning. Don't know if I'll be back on until Sunday. This should be an interesting experience. Alan has told me I won't have to lift a finger on this camp. We'll see. I'm packing 5 books to read on the beach, and I've got the food boxes crammed with healthy snacks, and food the kids can prepare themselves. Alan will be in charge of setting up camp and cooking all dinners. I've got to remember to take the camera!!!

Have fun!!

I'm kind of a NOW, NOW, NOW person myself, Elizabeth.

By the way, we are no longer staying in Topeka. We decided to add a little to the drive that day so that the next would be shorter. We'll now be in Salina, KS instead.

Matthew saw something about a drive-in called Bobo's in Topeka on Diners, Dives, and Drive-ins. Know anything about it or what kind of area it is in?

Never heard of it. But that doesn't mean anything. I haven't lived in KS since I was 2. And when I go back to visit I don't pay much attention. I know I have never been to BoBo's, and I don't recall my cousins or Diva ever mentioning it. I'll try to remember to ask Diva about it.

Marci - Sounds like your A/C problem was similar to ours, but yours was worse. Ours just dripped in the hallway before the guys came to clear the line. Apparently our drain pan was at a bit of an angle, so they leveled it out while they were here. I am sorry about your lithograph.

Thanks everyone on the design comments. I found out it's the same way you do the fill in design lettering, with some zoomed in touch ups at the corners.

Off to bed, night everyone!

Hello all! Just a quick hello before I got pick Terra and Rachel up from VBS. Didn't think Terra would go, but we got there to drop Cinderella and BigSis off yesterday and she wanted to stay. Of course, it took 40 minutes of discussion and tears for her to decide, but she wanted to go and had a blast. (I hadn't mentioned it to her assuming she wouldn't give up her daddy-playtime. If I had given her even a day's notice, I'm sure it would have been fine, but she doesn't do well with last minute things and changes.)

I'm already signed up for the Princess Half as well. I've been hearing from a lot of runners that they do both so I'm going to give it a try. I should be fine as long as I actually train.

For some reason DS was running around in his underwear and a wizard hat over the weekend (like this ). It would have served him right to have a pic of it posted on the boards, but I didn't take any pics.

Sounds like what I did when younger. My mom has a picture of me in frilly panties and wearing a shower cap (nothing else) playing outside at my grandmother's. Of course I was 2 or 3 at the time.

Kristin says, "I would have done that in a heartbeat, just to see what people would do!"

(Of course, I am personally hoping she would have on more than her panties...)

After my aunt died from not going to the doctor, my logical mind agrees with you. Unfortunately, I have a lot of illogical thoughts. I promise I will go. I wouldn't mind a little pixie dust that I get through it all ok.

You have it...

Love the design Chanon!

Yeah! You can do it. I keep thinking about a half, but just can't talk myself into it yet. Maybe I should find a 5K first and work from there.

That is wonderful news, indeed, Glynis. My "advanced age" was one of the reasons given for my elevated numbers the first time too. I am happy that you have such a caring medical staff!
