I've been incredibly tired for the last little while and haven't done much at all. My house can prove it. I have several excuses, I'm sure you'll believe me that all of them are valid, but I do promise to post a couple of events.
Lily's birthday
Lily's baptism
My sister's wedding along with our "sister's dance"
But onto my excuses...
Excuse #1: I'm expecting!
I don't yet know what I'm expecting (hopefully human, probably a girl) but he/she should make an appearance in September.
Excuse #2: I'm having thyroid trouble
This is mostly resolved now, but during the mess I was really stressed and worried about it. My first blood tests had shown thyroid hormone levels that were high. I was referred to an Endocrinologist who found a lump on my thyroid that could be causing the hyperactivity, and also could be cancerous. Now, after the biopsy, I'm much more calm. The results were still inconclusive, but my doctor reassured me that I'm very low risk. My thyroid hormone levels, while being higher than normal, aren't high enough that they pose a risk to the baby or myself. So we will watch my lump by ultrasound, and I'll be having a few more blood tests than normal, but I get to stay as a low-risk pregnancy, hooray! I will have a more thorough surgical biopsy later, after the baby is born to make sure there's no cancer.
Hopefully you can find it in your heart to forgive me for taking a month off of blogging, I'll try to be a little more consistent from here on out.

Congratulation on the baby! So exciting. I hope you are feeling better soon.
I guess I could forgive you. Maybe.
It's about time!! Thanks for the post! -Hannah
Congratulations on the good news. Maybe a boy this time... I'm going to forgive Sarah for another girl, but I have my limits. :)
I'm sure the other stuff will work out just fine.
Andrew and I were talking the other day about when you guys were going to have another one. Congrats!! I'm glad the Thyroid issue isn't too severe and you get to stay low risk for you pregnancy :)
