Last Monday, January 23rd, we had our first appointment at Clarksville OB/GYN with Dr. Johnston. This was a great appointment. Everything looked good, and we were able to hear our sweet baby's heartbeat again. The heartbeat is strong, and we were able to pick it up immediately. We will go back for another appointment in four weeks. Today, I am 11 weeks and 1 day pregnant. I am thinking we will make a grand announcement to our families this weekend. I have a photo idea in mind...just gotta get everything lined up!
On another note, yesterday at Sunday School, Kathryn received a handout about families and how God gives us a family. I asked Kathryn, "Did God give you a family?" She replied, "Yes." I said, "Who is in your family?" She replied in this exact order, "Mommy, Sissy, and Daddy." I asked, "Who is Sissy?" She said, "I don't know." I thought it was an interesting comment on her part.
We have not really talked to Kathryn all that much about our growing family. We didn't want to say too much to her about it until we told our families. Kathryn did go to an appointment with us at NFC, but she had no clue what was really happening. And, often we will ask her if she would like a brother or sister, in which she always replies with a solid yes.
After announcing to our families, we plan to really start talking to her about the reality of everything happening. I know she will be so excited once she understands, and I know she will be a great big sister!
