Haven't Heard?



Well...if you haven't heard yet, here it goes:

1. We have moved to Evansville, IN
2. Steve got a job in the Emergency Department
3. I got a job in ICU stepdown
4. We are stressed as ever unpacking our place before we both start full time jobs
5. I am suffering working mother syndrome--yes, I cry a lot!
6. Steve and I BOTH passed our boards!
7. We're pregnant!

In case you didn't know...#7 was NOT planned...we are not interested in driving ourselves crazy, but when the Lord has a will He has a way! Yes, working mother syndrome is very similar to the first trimester of pregnancy...I cry a lot! I am 9 weeks along! Actually, I was at my OB office waiting to get an IUD. They are instituting blood pregnancy tests, which I had done only two days prior. I waited...and waited...and waited for the doctor to come in and do her thing, but when she came in, we had quite a conversation! "Crystal, I have some good news and some bad news....the bad news, you will not get an IUD today, but the good news is that you are pregnant!" Hmmm....what would you do? Cry? Laugh? I did a bit of both, but left laughing, and full of joy! Baby #5 is coming...whoa...that sounds kinda crazy!
