18w Scan = Complete
Well yesterday was the anatomy scan in Calgary. We stayed overnight since I was the first ultrasound of the day at 7:45am. No way we’d be driving for that. Brutal time. I had to get up early just to make sure I drank water with enough time. For those who know me, know I love my sleep and getting up before I really have/want to for drinking water was like torture but it was worth it. Finally our turn and it was the same room I had been in for N’s fetal echo. I’ve never seen any of the other rooms. Maybe the next appt. I will. N started panicking…

Noah is 1!
Today Noah turns 1. I can’t believe it. It’s a lot easier to put pictures together than the words (still working on it). But I wanted to share because I’m so proud of my little man and every thing he is becoming. It’s been a hard year but he amazes me and everyone who knows him every day! Here’s the link of Noah’s birth story I wrote while we were still in the Children’s Hospital last April: Birth Story The entries I wrote about this amazing man and difficult road we were given: Some of the Past Year with N Happy Birthday, Noah! We love you!
