hello and goodbye
After days of anticipation and a night of restless sleep, Wednesday morning I took a pregnancy test.

Sandwiched between the two theme parks was a lot of really sweet relational catch-ups with a lot of our friends. We could have stayed at least another week and still not visited with everyone we wanted to see.
Happy New Year from the House of Gjertsen! This year, the holidays were all joy.
So yesterday was my 24-week ultrasound and I was straining to see the gestational age as the tech drew her little ovals around the head and stomach.
Valor got really pumped about Halloween this year. We walked around the neighborhood the week before to see the “Halloween scenes,” as Valor calls them, on people’s porches. I thought seeing the “scary” things in the daytime would help prepare him for the night of trick-or-treating.
Thank you to everyone who prayed for the test results from Carolina Grace and our appointment with the hi-risk doc. The results came in, so I met with Dr. L. and a geneticist Monday, fully prepared to hear them say, “I’m sorry, but we will just never know why this happened.”
But that’s not what they said.
