Isn't peanut growing more and more handsome/beautiful every week? This whole process always amazes me so! I'm happy to say that despite all the recent heartache I've been going through with losing my dad, the progress of our baby's growth and health has been wonderful with still NO complications! I feel that God is working such a miracle in me with this baby... I just feel so blessed with a sense of ease and peace! My cervix is still measuring at a great length and is still closed... so again, very hopeful signs. I am now approaching 14 weeks and I will be monitored by my OB now bi-weekly. I am still resting and lounging as much as I can.
Yesterday Mugi had off work and since the weather was beautiful he suggested we take a ride up the mountain and take some pictures. They turned out really well with the ever-growing belly! I just can't get over how big I'm getting already... hard telling how huge I'll be come November! Someone asked me today if I was positive I wasn't having twins, lol! Nope... the u/s shows only ONE!
I just want to say thanks to everyone for their continued support of positive thoughts and prayers for us and our baby! We appreciate them and need them all so much :) Also, I wanted to mention how thankful I am for all the well wishes and messages of sympathy I've received upon so many of you upon the passing of my Dad. Next week will mark a month already since he's been gone, and I still can hardly grasp it. I'm sure that many of you realize and know that there's sooo many loose ends to tie up after a death. Our family has been trying our best to help get mom through all these daunting and difficult tasks these past weeks. It's been hard for all of us, but on a positive note our prayers have been answered in regard to the sale of their house at least. My mom decided that she didn't want to keep the house because her and dad lived 2 hours from the rest of the family. She wants to be closer to both my brother and I (we live 15 minutes from each other) and my gram (her mom). Anyway last week the "For Sale" sign was stuck out in the front yard, and the very next day it sold! Mom was so nervous that the house would not sell easy and would be on the market for months, but I thought it would sell quick because of it's prime location and lot size. So glad it did! Now mom will be moving in with my gram and she'll be equal distance between my brother and I. I'm just so relieved that some things seem to be falling into place easier than expected. Again... THANKS for all the continued prayers!

Those are such beautiful pix. I am glad that at least the sale of the house went smoothly-your Mom's plate is full enough right now coping with the loss of her husband.
Whoa girl....that ultrasound sent cold chills down my spine. What a beautiful sight to see. That is going to be one lucky baby having you and Mugi as parents. But just a heads up...my cousin didn't know she was having twins until she was almost 5 mo along...go figure. But, it sounds like everything is going great so that is awesome!
I think it's wonderful your mom will be close by. I'm sure it was hard for her in the beginning, having to leave the home she made with her Dad.
You and your family are ALWAYS in my thought and prayers!
Andrea you live with such bravery and an open heart, I admire you so much. I love that you didn't give up hope for another child. You are awesome!
