Exciting News!!!!!!

Well, we figure it's about time we tell everyone the exciting news. Lawrence and I are expecting our first little one. I had my first ultrasound today. I'm eight weeks along and my due date is Oct. 19th. That seems so far away, but I'm sure it will go by quickly enough. We were very excited to see the heart beat. That's the only thing I was worried about, since I've already miscarried once.

Lawrence and I are very excited for this precious child of our Heavenly Father's to come into our lives. It's crazy to think that He trusts us with His children. All I know to do is my best. Right now I'm just trying to make it through the morning sickness. I feel nauseous all the time pretty much. I some how make it through the school day and then I spend most evenings in bed or on the couch. Lawrence takes very good care of me, he's a wonderful husband. I don't get why they call it morning sickness, because it sticks around all day and it's starting to bother me at night, too. A man must have named it that.

In other news......I have a little less than 3 months of school left, YAY!!!! All the teachers are starting to count down, especially me. Right now my class is reading a really funny book called The BFG and soon we'll be doing a class play. Lawrence has about 5 weeks of class left then he'll have spring break and start new classes. I just started a new class for my master's program. It will be interesting to see how that goes while I'm not feeling too well. Luckily, I can do all of that in bed on my laptop.

Spring is right around the corner. I can feel it. The feet of snow is finally starting to melt and we can see some dead grass, and mud is everywhere. The melting snow makes for an interesting recess for the kids at school. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we won't see too much more snow, but in Rexburg, ID...... who knows.

Well we hope everyone is doing well. Enjoy the ultrasound. The baby is whole whopping 1.64 cm long. We'll be posting more again soon.
