BIG MAMA is in the House!

Wednesday, July 16th:
Another prenatal visit. Guess how much I weigh people?
183 lbs!! I asked the nurse to look back and see how much I weighed with Jonathan around this time and to our surprise I weighed the same. The prediction is another BIG baby.
I'm not surprised. By the way, I don't have gestational diabetes, never have...

Stat wise: Tia holds the record 11 lbs. 07!
Jonathan was 10 lbs. 01 (he was taken a week early). So we'll see how much this little guy weighs in. No inducement date yet, because my blood was drawn (to check my antibodies) and I was given a Rh-Immune Globulin shot, I am Rh negative. More tests need to be done including another ultrasound and then we'll probably get an inducement date.
Ty is hoping for 08-08-08! We'll see...

Olympics - Beijing 2008

We know an Olympian! How cool is that!

A couple of weeks ago (Monday, July 7th, 2008) we went to an open house for swimmer: Lacey Nymeyer. News cameras were present, friends, family, the community came to Mountain View High to see and support Miss Nymeyer. She's going to the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing!

It was an exciting evening for all! It was fun to see little girls (like our Tia) line up to get a glimpse, autograph or a picture with a local star.

Lacey is the daughter of Aaron & Stacey. We know the Nymeyer's since 2000 when we moved here to Tucson, AZ. They are in our ward.

GO LACEY!

GO USA! GO USA! GO USA!

"Island news"

Like I mentioned in an older post, my sister and I went home "Tahiti" to see our father & family. Our Dad was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (cancer) a few months ago.
Before we left, there was a ray of hope...the cancer had stopped spreading and Dad's liver and kidneys were fine after the several blasts of chemo.

However, we got an email yesterday informing us that our Dad is back in the hospital!
He was admitted Monday June 30th. His leg is swollen again and he's in pain.
After a leg scan, the doc' found that the tumor they reduced/zapped unfortunately is still there and active! So that's what is causing all the pain and swelling.

Solution: our Dad was given another blast of chemo. The doc's prediction doesn't sound good but we are still hoping for a miracle. Dad is staying positive despite the set back.
Sorry this is brief but that's all we know for now. We have to be patient.

Thank you.
