Our Low this week is a HUGE bummer. We found out through an ultra-sound today that I am no longer pregnant. I started spotting on Friday so we had a verrrrry long, tearful, prayerful weekend. We even rescheduled our annual Olympics (which is a huge deal). Of Course, we are very sad but are all doing okay and we know that this pregnancy was not in God's plan for us. Since it was so early we can try again right away. Please don't be shocked if you call and we don't answer, we have a big project to work on ;)
High-During the ultrasound Shaun got a huge shock. He knew he was looking for a dark sack on the screen (I couldn't see the screen b/c I was lying down) which would indicate a fetus. While the doc was looking and printing pictures his eyes popped wide open when he saw four dark spots on the screen in what he thought was my uterus. For a minute or so he thought we were having quads b/c the doc was looking at my ovaries and there are dark spots where all the eggs are. I laughed for a long time when he told me. Can you imagine? Apparently, in that time Shaun had decided that we would need to call Oprah b/c two teachers would not be able to support a 2 year old and four infants. (Hmmmm...Shaun and Aimee Plus Five could be a new show, I think)

That would be AMAZING if there were four... too, too bad about the mc though. I totally know what a bummer it is- it happened to me twice. Sounds like you have the right attitude about it all- it'll make things happier faster.
We were really bummed for you guys but I'm glad there aren't any complications. I'm sure it's hard to be patient, but I hope you don't have to wait too long! We're thinking of you both!
I can't spell, here's my comment again...
I'm so sad, but I totally know there's a "plan" for you! Heavenly Father loves you and will direct and guide you! Okay, about the Quads...that would be so awesome! I really hope it happens.
Really sorry to hear about your miscarriage...I totally know how you feel. Same exact thing happened to me and because I wasnt far along in the pregnancy dr. said we could try again right away and I was pregnant the next month. One thing I was told is that it was just getting rid of a bad pregnancy... That made me feel better. :) It's always fun trying... haha love yall!!
sorry you guys had to have a change of plans. I know it will happen for you there is no way Heavenly Father wouldn't want to send more of his spirits into your home. You are both amazing parents.
Happy belated birthday to you Shaun!!
Aimee,
You may not remember me but I'm in your mom and dad's ward. I just wanted to tell you I was thinking of you and can sympathize with what you are going through as it took my husband and I 13 years to get little Sadie. The highs and lows are all part of the plan sad to say but in the end it's just a blip on the radar screen and in His time everything will work out. If you ever need to talk, I'm a great listener.
Lots of Love and Prayers!
Tammy Eastlick
