Update

So things have been a bit busy around here!

~Made it to Busch Gardens for Sesame Street preview and William had a blast! Looking forward to going back!

~The sun room is done, so we had fun getting that put together and making it William's playroom!

~We had Nana and Grampa come visit. We had some R and R with them and caught up on some household chores. Daddy fixed the mold issue in the kitchen (ripping out cabinets and putting new ones in). We may have to do that project again though as we are questioning a new area :( We tidied up the backyard, after all the construction and it's looking much better!

~Auntie Jen came to visit and Mommy, Jen and William went to the beach, Adventure Island and Story time. We had fun hanging out!

~Our biggest time consumer has been Mark and the dreaded diagnosis. After many months we finally got to the bottom of Marks issues. A neurologist diagnosed him with MS (Multiple Sclerosis). An MRI confirmed it and to say we were blown away is an understatement. It was not in my nurse radar, but hey I'm no doctor and certainly can't know everything! SO Mark has had MD appts and procedures to help with the diagnosis. I think we (or it least I) are coming to grips with it and looking forward to getting meds started and Mark feeling better! It's been a VERY rough roller coaster and my pregnancy hormones certainly don't help! It's not been easy but I keep saying-1 day at a time! Only positive we see is now we know what is wrong and can move forward! William and baby # 2 are the motivation! Hoping to start meds this week!

I'm 19 weeks and we are off to the regular OB and the high risk docs this week! We are certainly staying busy with all the doctor visits and procedures!

Hoping to get some pics up soon. Not a lot of blog time, wish uploading pics was quicker!

Oh, so sorry to hear about Mark's diagnosis.I know you guys were hoping for answers for so long, but this is obviously not what you were imagining. My prayers are with you all. Love you!
