Picnic at Lake Murray

It was a nice day out so Ty and I packed up and headed to Lake Murray for a picnic lunch.

After digging in the sand, we decided to take a break and check out the water.

We had to look at it over and over again.  It was very interesting.

That finally wore me out.  A little napping in the sun.  

And now, we eat.   

24 Week Appointment

Went in for my 24 week appointment and had a chance to go over things with the DR.  We have set a plan of action and I will go in on March 1st for an ultrasound.  We will be making sure there is no water on the brain and  no cyst has formed. We will also look to see how the vermis has matured since the last U/S.  The baby's heartbeat was 132 which is good.  I also got the ball rolling on getting a neurologist/neurosurgeon.  They sent referral papers over so as soon as things get squared away with them, I will meet with that Dr. and get his opinion on the situation and what he thinks will be the best course for when she is born.  I am also requesting a fetal MRI.  I am terribly afraid of having her put to sleep so soon after being born to have an MRI done to asses her situation.  I figure I would rather endure the 90 minute process and have the MRI done while she is still in my belly and the risk involved with anesthesia is eliminated and they are still able to get all the info they need.  Thanks so much for all of your prayers and thoughts.  They have meant so much to Travis and I.  As soon as I know more, I will pass it on.
