We Saw The Heartbeat!

JODI WRITES-
I say "we", but Jill saw the heartbeat on an ultrasound today. We are so grateful given how the day started. Jill called me crying and said that she was cramping. We both have been worried that she might miscarry. The ultrasound showed a small blood clot in the uterus. The doctor said they will watch it and we pray it goes away by the next appointment.

The Ellis Family Is At Disneyland

JODI WRITES-
I have this longing feeling that i just want to be with Jill. She is in Disneyland with Ryan and Ben and Ethan. I keep thinking about what ride my baby is on now. I feel like I'm pregnant emotionally, but know I'm not physically. This sure is a strange, but wonderful experience.

A Very Exciting Conference Call!

JODI WRITES-
Tim and Jill and Ryan and I knew today would be the day we would know if our lives would change in a huge way. We all got on the conference call and waited for Lana, the nurse at the infertility clinic, to call. We patched Lana in to join the three of us. She had the results. "Well . . . . . .," she said. "We're pregnant!" Oh my goodness! Holy Cow! We all laughed and congratulated each other and I think are half in denial about what those two words really mean. We are in for quite a journey until we meet this child!
