He said if Robert put up the hula I could!!!!!!



Here are the pictures of Jon's recent mishap. He works a morning shift at Home Depot and was running late at 3:30am. He put on his shirt and noticed it was a little wrinkled and decided to iron it ON HIS BODY!!!!!!!!! He says he has done this many times before without trouble only this time he accidently pushed the steam button. Poor Jon!!!!

Baby Bed






Here is the furniture we got off of Craig's list! It is exciting to have it already. Sometimes I go into the room it is in and just daydream about our baby! We can't wait till it is here!

Answered Prayers




This past Thursday night began a roller coaster ride that we hope we never ride again. We were getting ready for bed when I went to the bathroom only to notice a good amount of bright red blood. I panicked and Jon called my OB. They gave us the option of coming in first thing in the morning or going to the emergency room. We decided that we would drive ourselves crazy thinking about it if we didn't go and get it checked out. Off we went to the hospital. When we arrived I became somewhat concerned that we might get shot or something. The place was full of rough looking people. We got checked in and waited. Then we waited and waited, cried, and waited, waited and cried and waited. The lady next to us (Who was about 300lbs, approx. 55 yrs old, and complaining of liver troubles as she hacked and walked out to smoke.) got a phone call which gave us our only laugh in the waiting room as her phone rang to "Shorty got Low." When she hung up, she started to complain to a couple across from her how long the wait was. We had been there for 2 hours and seen very few people go back. The couple responded to her saying they had been there for 5 hours! I began to loose it! Just then our God-send came. Hannah, a friend from church who is a nurse, walked out of the double doors we had all been watching to see who would be next. All Jon could do is point and say to me, "Hey, Hey... " I yelled, "Hannah!!!" She came over, gave me a much needed hug,and had us back in a room within 10 min. She made sure we had a Christian doctor and a great nurse and wouldn't leave until she knew we were settled. She was wonderful!!!!!!!!!! The doctor came in and did an ultrasound and we could see baby Klepper moving around and the heart beating. What a blessing and an answer to prayer! They told me I was a little dehydrated and gave me some fluids through an IV and told me to check with my OB the next day to determine the cause of the bleeding. We got home and crashed. The next day we went to the doctor. They did another ultrasound to look at the placenta and try to determine if the bleeding was coming from the uterus (which could be somewhat dangerous) or the cervix(which would be less dangerous). As far as they could tell the placenta was fully intact. While they were looking at this, they also took a good look at the baby too! I can't explain how awesome it is to see it on the screen. The first picture is where it had its hands up next to its face opening and closing its hands like it was waving. You could see its arms and legs and they said it was growing normally. We feel so blessed! God is soooo good!
This is the third time I have bled, but this time was much worse than the others. Please pray that this goes away as it is very frightening when it happens!

Baby







Here are all the pictures of the newest member of our family. The one that looks like a blob on the bottom was taken when I was about 6 weeks along. In the other two, Klepper baby is about 10 weeks old, but he/she measured closer to 11 weeks. We should be able to find out the baby's sex sometime in Feb. CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!
