We are so blessed!

So Ive now told this story a million times but I thought it was about time to put a new post up. I was going to wait until we got more sono pictures but I'll just have to post those in a few days when I get them. So, here it goes. 3 weeks ago, Jared was in an accident. Thankfully, he was not hurt. He was rear ended on the highway coming home from work. He was in my little Nissan Sentra. And because it was 6 years old with so many miles, it was totalled. So we decided to buy a van. I know there's people out there who say they will never drive a mini van, but I have always said when I start to have children, I want one. So we bought a used Chrysler Town and Country. It was old and had lots of miles but it was in good shape and we were able to pay cash for it (no car payment). Well, I drove the van for about 3 weeks and last Friday at about 3:45 pm. I survived a pretty bad accident that totalled the van. I was driving in the far left lane on LBJ freeway. A car in the far exit only lane decided to get over at the last minute and cut off an 18 wheeler. She didn't have enough room. He clipped the back of her car and spun her out of control. All I saw was a car coming from the far right lane across 4 lanes into my lane. I didn't even have time to think about hitting my brakes. From there, all I remember is feeling like I was on a roller coaster. I've never experienced anything like this in my life. According to the witnesses, I hit the wall next to the shoulder and bounced off of it, flipped over and slid across 4 lanes all the way to the far right shoulder. And no one else hit me. I landed upside down and I was trapped and couldn't get the door open. Within a minute there were at least 10 people there to help me get out. They pulled me out through the window to the side. I kept thinking that there had to be something wrong with me and I just couldn't feel it. I kept telling everyone I was pregnant. That's all I was concerned about. I called my mom immediately because I knew she was close. Then I called Jared. I felt horrible for him because he was about 45 minutes away and had to sit in traffic to get to me. My mom got there pretty quick. She had my 11 yr old nephew with her. I felt horrible for him too because all he could see was my upside down van. I hated that he had to see that. So my mom took my purse and everything. I looked worse than I was because my hand was bleeding from the glass and I touched my face. So I think I looked worse than I was. So I had my first ambulance ride. It was not fun. I was shaking so bad. I kept telling myself I had to calm down because I didn't want my heart rate to affect the baby. So we got to the hospital and Jared was right there when they took me off the ambulance. I had a deep cut in my leg that I got 5 stitches in. My heart rate was 115. They checked for the baby's and it took a while which made me so nervous. But I was only 11 weeks and the Doppler usually starts working around 10 weeks. So we finally heard it. It was very faint but it was there. It was 192. So the baby's heart rate was pretty high too. But they didn't feel a need to do anything else since it's still so early. They said the location of the baby now, it's so far down that it's so protected and not affected by the trauma. I don't know if they were just telling me that to make me feel better or if that's really the case. I will definitely feel better when I see that little baby and hear the heart beat again. I'm calling first thing tomorrow to let them know what happened and see if they'll see me Monday. My appt isn't until Thursday. Hopefully, they'll see me tomorrow. I'll feel alot better. So right now, we are waiting to hear from the ins. company (did I mention the girl who caused the accident didn't have ins)We will have to look again for another car. We met our realtor today to look at houses. We put a bid on one because it's a Hud and the deadline was tonight at midnight. We'll find out tomorrow if we won the bid or not. So if we do, we'll be home owners in 6 weeks or less. So I guess I thought that looking for a job, having a baby and working full time wasn't enough. Now we've added buying a house and a car to our list. Needless to say, we have been very blessed. God is definitely looking over us. We do need prayers. I know all our wonderful family and friends will keep us in their prayers. For now, I am just very thankful that our baby is okay. Everything else doesn't matter. So this is the longest post I've ever posted but it's been a while so I just wanted to update everyone on what is going on. I'm going tomorrow to take pictures of the van. I'll post those soon. I'm interested in seeing what it looks like. Thanks for all the prayers that have been said and will be said on our behalf. God Bless!
