well today was a big event...sort of. i had my 3 month dr. appt. and i got to hear the baby's heartbeat! it was somewhat disappointing though. i was all psyched up for it, thinking it would an emotional event. i wasn't even that amazed. it just sounded like mine. it was beating just as fast as mine and almost with mine. i was thinking "maybe it's really not a baby's heart, maybe it's just mine i hear." i was disappointed. i wanted to be emotional, to be blown away by it. i feel bad that it didn't make me feel more maternal or more pregnant. oh well. i guess i will have to wait until i get an ultrasound. maybe then i'll be excited. i hope so. anyway...nothing else exciting to report. dave's working, i'm doing laundry at my parents and life is good.

Hope you're feeling well these days....and sorry you were disappointed w/ the ultrasound. Really I find that when I get my hopes up in an expectant way, I am disappointed more often than not.
Be amazed at the little things...just the thought that a new life is being knit together in your womb....your womb...is amazing! Psalm 139 is happening right inside of you...
13 For you formed my inward parts;
you knitted me together in my mother's womb.
14 I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works;
my soul knows it very well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you,
when I was being made in secret,
intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed substance;
in your book were written, every one of them,
the days that were formed for me,
when as yet there were none of them.

17 How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 If I would count them, they are more than the sand.
I awake, and I am still with you.

...and this life is forming as a result of the love that you share w/ Dave. It's truly an amazing thing!
