The fruit of my loins and the fruit of my backyard

I never posted any of the most recent pictures of the roomie. After a very active scan (bouncing around like a jumping bean) the roomie has accumulated yet another name - "the little yumper" (think "jumper" with a spanish accent.)


I have also posted pictures of some of my plants. My garden is going crazy this year! The bulk of my lily's are currently in bloom and it is so exciting to go outside to water every morning and see what else is bursting out with color. I am realizing now that I have too much yellow and orange though. I am not a big fan of purple but I think it would add a nice contrast... Oh, and my window boxes are thriving too.

Hoop number two - jumped through

I had my 6 week ultrasound today.
The skrimp has a heartbeat. Having a hard time believing it, even though I saw that little flicker with my own two eyes.

Two more weekly ultrasounds with my RE to monitor growth. Then off to the OB.
My RE recommended 2 OB practices and insisted I see a high risk doctor because of the association of incompetent cervix with uterine anomalies. I was pleased to hear her talk about this so early.

Now that I am through the worst of the stress, I have a terrible (i mean terrible) case of diarrhea. This is a pretty typical stress reaction for me. Added to it is that we are having our first warm day of the season. Anything above 72 degrees and I have terrible intestinal issues. Arg. And I am really sure you wanted the nasty details!

Thanks for all of your kind words and support. As usual - ya'll rock!
