34 Week Update

Welcome to week 34! Our midwife appointment today revealed normal measurements and heart rate and a head-down baby! Mom's lab work is all within normal limits. Mom and Dad are getting a bit antsy with some early anxiety, but are very excited and waiting patiently at the same time.

For all friends and family that know Boo, the sugar glider in our profile picture, we have some bad news. After 11 wonderful years, Boo has passed away. He has been gracefully but noticeably aging over the last few years. In the last few weeks, he's become increasingly more uncomfortable. The last few days were particularly hard on him. We had a very difficult time deciding to euthanize him. He was an incredible and unforgettable member of our family and neither of us were ready to let go. We employed the offerings of veterinary medicine - pain medication, etc. to make him comfortable in his last days, but it became obvious that he was still not feeling well. Looking into his painful eyes made us realize that we had to put aside our selfishness and make the best decision for Boo. He is dearly missed and will always be an irreplaceable part of our family.
