Beauty in Bloom


Hey Everybody,

Hey...we're doing pretty good at the weekly update thing so far. We had a GREAT first appointment with the LPN at the OBGYN on Friday (like I know what all those acronyms mean). The nurse gave us a lot of great information and we were able to ask a lot of questions and get them answered. I'm sure they were all the normal questions she usually gets, but she was patient and very informative. We had all the questions about health, exercise, nutrition, etc. that I'm sure most couple's in our position ask. It was a fun way to begin the adventure. A week from today we have our first ultrasound of the baby. We are VERY excited to find out exactly how far along Kealy is and maybe even hear the heartbeat of our 'little one'.



We are so thankful for God's providence in moving us to West Salem last December, into a three bedroom apartment. We are really enjoying our place and I often find myself wandering into what will be the nursery and just sitting and dreaming. The other fun things about our place are the backyard and the garage. The garage because it gives us a place to play ping pong, and the backyard because it is the first time we've had a yard of our own to enjoy. The backyard has been especially 'active' and bringing forth some beautiful flowers, as you can see by the pictures below. We also bought some vegetables and herbs at a local Saturday market and planted them last weekend. We planted a tomato plant, zucchini, two kinds of pepper, some basil and sage. Hopefully
I won't kill the plants...




Thanks for all of your continued prayers and we will let you know next week how the first ultrasound goes!

in Christ,
Ryan and Kealy

Ryan and Kealy (more Kealy), if you want to hear GOOD pregnancy and birth stories I'll share. It can be really fun to be preggers -- especially when people aren't sharing the horror stories. :)
