First Appointment

Today was my first appointment, and I must say, I'm not real impressed. I am going to the same practice where the kids go for pediatrics....so I just thought this would be easiest. My appointment was to be at 8:15, however I watched nurses roll in until 8:25....obviously not a punctual group! I was finally called back to an exam room at about 8:45 and then continued to wait about 15 minutes longer for the doctor....I was expecting a full exam, urine sample, blood work, etc....but none of this happened. I just talked to the doctor...she merely took a history from me. I don't understand how they can confirm a pregnancy without actually doing anything except talking to me! However, the doctor seemed very friendly, and I'm going to go back and hope for things to get better. I'm scheduled for blood work and an ultrasound on the 18th....hopefully all will turn out well.

On a funny note, we had a beautiful double rainbow earlier this week. I told Nolan that God created the rainbow. I had opened the window so the kids could get a better look. Nolan yells out the window, "Thank you, God, for the rainbow." This, I thought, was so precious...he didn't think God could hear him unless he yelled outside to Him. Then, he continued to yell, "God, maybe next time you could bring us some candy too!" Goodness, what these kids can think of!
