a few new things..

I've got a baby bump!!! 20 Weeks 1 day- HALF WAY... tha baby is kicking alot, Matt has felt it, and i've even seen a little ripple!! We got to see the Ultrasound, God sure knows what He's doing, our healthy little baby is "looking" completely human already!!! It was so neat to see it moving LIVE on the screen, and all it's parts working perfectly! What a Miracle, Minus the symptoms that are wearin out the mama, I know its only for a short period of time, and we will have someone added to our lives that will make it all worth it. :)

Matt was in a really bad car accident at the beginning of January, there were some angels surrounding the car which we were both thankful for.. my car was written off, so we needed to replace it.. we did a lil upsizing with a Nissan Murano, even tho the circumstances weren't asked for, getting something new is always fun.. I'm loving it so far!!! Plus it has my "sunroof" and "seat warmers"... ahh simple pleasures!!

I wanna hear it....

To all my mommy Friends & Family....

As a first timer at this baby thing...

I wanna hear from you what items are a must have, that you could not live without with your lil babes!!! Its good to be over prepared then under prepared!

From Strollers, carseats, diapers, toys, baby carriers, soothers, blankets, clothing items, creams of all sorts, whatever comes to mind...

Give me your Wisdom!!!

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?
