8 weeks and counting!

we had our first dr. appt! we got to hear the heart beat!! we are only having one baby! yippee. the baby is normal and healthy so far and tiny!! they are not sure if i am farther along than 8 weeks. i had a bit of morning sickness last night, but the ginger tea helped. it was so cool to actually see apple since some days i wonder if i am still pregnant. we could see apple way better on the screen than in this picture. please keep us in your prayers.

7 weeks!

we found out on christmas eve that we were pregnant! yippee! after 9 years of marriage this is such a blessing. we are on week 7 and things are going good so far. not much morning sickness or weird cravings. on january 23rd we get to find out if there is one or more heartbeats. we found out today that we will have to deliver at ogden regional due to our insurance. that is fine since we live right next door. we are calling the human inside of me 'apple' since we do not know the sex yet. we will find out the sex as soon as we can - no patience! if apple is a boy we will name him jackson (jack) blake palmer; for girls we really like abigail (abby) or emma. if a girl, we are considering 'catherine' for a middle name after my grandmother. we will keep this posted every dr. visit or other news - keep on checking! the picture is from my birthday party with friends robin & christian.
