29 Weeks!!!!

Holly cow I'm 29 weeks pregnant!!! That's insane! Roughly 11 weeks to go...crazy! I'm still feeling great and enjoying it all. I definitely get out of breath easier and can't wait to fit into my American Eagle jeans again, but everything is great and well worth the experience!

It's been a few weeks since I've posted b/c it's been crazy around here so I'll do a quick update. We got to go on vacation to see family in Oklahoma and Springfield at the end of June. We had a shower thrown for us in Oklahoma and got spoiled with gifts! Vacation was great getting to spend it with family and having no schedule! Sleeping in is the best!!

While on vacation, both of my parents got the results to their scans and they are both doing great! Mom's came up clear and they will just monitor here with continued scans every 3 months for a while! Praise the Lord! 1 1/2 years of chemo and bless her heart it was all worth it! Dad's scans came out nice too. His liver and lyphnodes didn't show any spots of cancer and the only tumor that was left was in his colon. He had surgery this past Thursday to remove about a foot of colon that included the tumor and he went through surgery great! He gets to go home today and continue to take it easy for a while. Last June he was diagnosed with 2 seperate unrelated stage 4 cancers and they thought surgery would be too dangerous to do so the fact he was considered for surgery is a miracle in itself. Thank you for all of you who prayed for them!
