I am 15 weeks along today and still feeling good. I've been very blessed to have made it through the first trimester with little to no morning sickness! I had been quite tired, but Paul has been wonderful and let me take my 3-4 hour naps on occasion after work while he did some housework. I am now starting to get my energy back and then some (I guess this is like the Superwoman phase I read about). I am getting a small belly now--enough to be uncomfortable in my regular clothes or have baggy maternity clothes....aagghhhh! I am looking forward to my growing belly--it's exciting to see the changes I am going through (not all of them particularly fun:).
At my last Doctor's appointment we got some news...First, it's a girl! Wow--so William's can produce a girl! I never thought I would get to shop for cute girl things!
The second piece of news was about the genetic testing. I had tested slightly abnormal (still very low) for my age etc. for Down Syndrome. The Doctor suggested an amniocentisis. After much thought and prayer we have opted not to get the test. We know that God has created a beautiful baby girl and we are choosing to not create additional risk. Please be in prayer for our peace of mind about this decision. Love Caryn

I will keep the baby in our prayers as she continues to blossom and grow in the wound. Babies are a gift from God and she's in his hands! There's no better place she could be! Peace be with you! I love you guys!
Helloooo Caryn! I'm so glad Paul told me about your website. The Harrisons and the Williams may not call each other much but we can blog like blog like maniacs.
Love the page. Love the writing. Love the ultrasound picture. I can't wait to keep up with all the news and I'll keep the three of you in my prayers.
