I'm Pregnant!

I few posts ago I meantioned that Paul and I had been going through fertility treatments. It was a pretty hard process for me to go through. I remember wanting laugh about all the crazy things Paul and I had to do but it really didn't seem like the right emotion. After doing a couple IUIs I got pregnant! It almost seems like a dream because I feel like I've wanted it for so long. Words cannot describe how it felt to see that first ultrasound.
I realize that I am so blessed to be pregnant. I know so many people going through the very same thing right now, and I will continue to keep them in my prayers. My family and Paul's family were so supportive, and I have a sister who was there for me way more than I ever was for her. I owe great thanks to them and to my Father in Heaven for blessing me with such a great gift.


Paul is a little nervous but he can't hold back his excitment to become a Dad! I told him that he could pick the name of our first child... as long as I liked it too. I think that has been the most stressful task for him so far. He can't come up with anything that he likes, and all these name picking websites don't help either. I let him resign until we find out what "himshe" is going to be.
I went to the store a few weeks ago to pick up a few white onsies. I can't believe how small they were! Now I just have to wait to find out a gender so that I can start doing some applique.
The baby is due in August which is the same time we will be moving again. We welcome this new adventure!

PS..the pool opens today!!! Come on over and join us.

I haven't checked your blog for a long time, and my first thought before finally finding a link to it was exactly this.

What a miracle and blessing!
