heartbeat

We heard our kid's heartbeat for the first time on Friday. It took a little while for the good doctor to get the microphone thingy pointing in the right direction, but once he did, we could clearly hear the swish-swish-swish at about 160 beats per minute. So all is going well and everything is proceding normally as we approach 15 weeks.

But Michelle is still throwing up everyday. She was hoping to be done with the sickness by now, but you can pretty much count on it every morning and sometimes late at night or even the middle of the night. The good news is that she's allowed to be back on her fibromyalgia medicine, so that should stem the tide of her aches and pains and she should be able to get out and excercise soon.

We've recently realized that we're not taking our fears and concerns to Jesus as we ought. We've let ourselves get distracted from prayer and fellowship, but God once again has brought us back to Himself with forgiveness and healing. We pray that He'll make us faithful more and more.
