update

Well, a lot has been happening here in Denver with Andy and I! We are in our 14th week of cooking up our first little bundle of trouble - I mean joy! It's taken some time to get used to the fact that this is really happening, and come August, we'll have a third person in our little family! We are getting more and more excited, and now that i'm done with the first three months, i'm hoping I will have a little more energy and will stop going to bed before 9:30 every night. :)
But we are already starting to work on getting the "baby room" ready to go. We ordered hard wood flooring that has arrived and will be installed - by Andy - in the next couple weeks! It's going to look really good! And once we find out the sex of the baby, I'll move into full decorating mode I'm sure. That room will look GOOD when we're done with it! :)
Though we are already outgrowing our little townhouse, we are planning to stay there for probably another year to year and a half. We are losing our guest room, but love our location and the mortgage payment too much right now to "upgrade."
The next 7 months will be lots of prepping, traveling as much as we can, and hopefully making plans to have YOU come visit us!!! :)

Reeves--Wow, this same exact thing happened with Ava (took the test, it came back as a higher risk than normal) and then after an amnio, we were told she did not have downs. I so understand the emotions you describe (the panic and worry at first, the waiting, my heart beating out of my chest when calling back for results, and the huge sense of relief felt when we got an "all clear" result). I am so glad and relieved you are past this point--so stressful--and that you are on to enjoying your pregnancy! I am DYING to know what you are having!!! I am guessing......boy!
