A Long, Busy Day

Today has a been a busy, busy, busy day... But most importantly, it was a very good day! I don't think I've stopped going until this very minute.

The best part of my day was made possible thanks to my amazing husband. I just want to brag on him for a minute! I was out and about today so John snuck in our house on his lunch break to deliver me a dozen beautiful red roses! I came home and was completely shocked. They just don't make them any more thoughtful, considerate, or sensitive than my husband:-) It's nice to receive flowers and gifts on holidays, birthday, and anniversaries, but for me, the gifts for no apparent reason are what mean the most. I'm so blessed to have such a wonderful husband!

In less-than-wonderful-news, I was having a VERY sharp and persistent pain in my lower right abdomen. It had gone on for about a week and over the last couple of days the pain worsened significantly. Long story short, I went in to see my OBGYN this afternoon and I have a nasty infection that will hopefully be cleared up soon. Anyways, that's totally not the point... I laid on the table for the doctor to poke around and push on my belly and he said to me, "Now, we do know that this is a singleton pregnancy, right? I'm trying to remember if we have confirmed that with an ultrasound." My heart was racing and I said, "Yes. Why? Do you think I'm enormous or something??" The doctor said, "Well, your uterus looks pretty large but because you're a very small women, I bet it's just how you're carrying." To reassure me that everything was normal and right on track, he measured my belly to show me that it measured exactly 19 centimeters. HOLY COW! Way to scare a woman, crazy man! For a brief moment I was completely freaked out.

After John got of work we went to Uno's with my family and then did some MAJOR grocery shopping (that was long overdue). $155 later we finally got that out of the way! Now it's time to enjoy John for the entire weekend:-) I'm SO EXCITED!!!!
