31 Weeks and Counting

Dear friends,

Just a quick update on Jennifer and Alexander. I know you haven't heard a lot from me lately but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. The pregnancy is going along absolutely without a problem so far. We have long past the major threshold of 18-20 weeks and are moving along well.

At twenty weeks the doctor said, if we can make it past 23 weeks we should be safe. Then at 23 weeks he said that we are "probably" safe but no guarantees. They are always afraid of promising something and then that long shot ends up happening.

Most likely we will deliver at 39 weeks which is typical for a scheduled C-section. We don't have a date on the calendar yet but we should know within the next few weeks. I still haven't worked out all the details of caring for Grace while the baby is being delivered but I am sure we'll figure something out.

We've been in our new home for six months now and it seems like things are just humming along at the moment. Keep us in your prayers!

Love,

Dave
