New Meaning of Thankfulness

Well it has felt like a long journey getting here, but now that it has come, it seems like all those prayers, questions, & wonder are replaced with excitement, happyness, and anticipation of the unexpected.

This Thanksgiving we found out BIG news!!!


WERE EXPECTING!!!!!

We were told by Doctors there was a 1% chance of getting pregnant, and IVF would be an option that would bring a baby into our lives. I didn't buy it, I didn't feel peace about it for our situation. God doesn't give different percentages to different couples.. I felt urged to keep having Faith In Gods Plan which includes 100% Chance .. God doesn't have a plan b, but always a plan a. It is when we are feeling impatient, that we want to take things into our own hands to make things happen! I am so thankful for this Gift God has given us. WE are so excited to start this process, and begin a new journey that will include a little one. I have recieved an overwhelming response by friends and family which I am so Greatful for.. The LOVE is felt & appreciated!



I've stockpiled a few great items from Jessie & Hannah to get me started...belly band, http://www.mamawraps.ca/, name books, tracking your pregnancy books... all the essentials :)


This has been a great oppertunity for me to get back on the blog wagon, and share our wonderful stories with all the people we love. All the updates will be posted here... I am Approximately 5 weeks.... they say the size of a "sesame seed" - predicted due date around June 10,2011. I have my first appointment with the Midwife in a couple weeks!

SO what do you think... BOY or GIRL?
