Walking in Memphis...

Tomorrow will be a wonderful day. I'm going to visit the biggest America's 3rd-largest health-care charity, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. I can't wait. I've been wanting to go for 6 years now and I've finally gotten the opportunity to go and tour the hospital. I'm so thankful to be part of an organization that offers financial and volunteer contributions to the research and treatment of children with cancer.

Ironically, at my last doctor's appointment last Friday, I gave blood for a Quad Marker Screen test. It was optional, but I figured I would take the test anyway. This test basically tests me to see if I am at a high or low risk of carrying a baby with a birth defect.

They said no news is good news. And I haven't heard anything, so I figure I'm in the clear.

But you do have to think about the "What if..." What if I did get a call? Would that change anything? Would it change our decision on whether or not to keep our baby? Of course not. I love this child like no other and nothing would change the way I feel. (Sounds like a song lyric, huh?)

We are also going to Graceland on Saturday morning. Yes, it's the obligatory tourist stop whenever you are in Memphis. I've been listening to my Elvis CD all week continuously. I better stop though...I'm starting to crave a fried peanut butter and banana sandwich.

Speaking of "hunka-hunkas" Deuce-Deuce won the championship of Dancing With the Stars. I'm so happy for him. He deserves it!
