Sweet Sisters

I have the sweetest sisters EVER!!!!

This is what I came home to today......
My very first baby gift!!!!!
It was most adorable onesie I have ever seen. Camille called me today as she was breaking into my house:) She said she was going over to pick up her booster seat, but little did I know what she was really up to. Then on my way home I was on the phone with Mary Madeline. As I walked in the door I told her Camille had left me something and I was so EXCITED!!! As I opened it I realized it was from both of them...the are so great!!! I cried, Mary Madeline was crying. I was a great moment.
It just makes me realize that this baby is really growing and is really coming.
I love you both, thank you!!!!

Oh Happy Day!!!


This is such a happy day for me....I am actually telling the world that we are havin a baby!!!
We have known for some time, but due to our past experiences we waited to share.
But, boy am I glad this day is here!! I have been ready to explode for sometime.
We have been praying and praying for this day for over 2 years now. There are times that I still can't believe this has all happened to us. I mean, the 2 years of tyring and 4 miscarriages. You just never think it is going to happen to you.
I feel honored and blessed to have been given this opportunity.
We have already had 3 sonograms due to the fact that I am so "high risk". I will post those as soon as I get them all scanned. Yesterday was our 11 wk appointment. It was amazing!! We were able to see the little bumble bee flip, wave, and kick. I can not believe that is all happening inside of me. I can't wait till I can feel it.
God had a plan for us. He must have known that we just were not ready when we started trying. So many things have happened in the past 4 months that I just know God had this all perfectly planned for us. Corey and I both started new jobs, his less demanding of his time and mine, well....just a better move for me in every way, (except for missing my friends).
I love, love knowing that he is in control and that ultimately he has it planned out for me either way.
Our due date is April 16th. Such a perfect date for a teacher...now I will get 2 months off at the end of the year as well as the summer to love and kiss on my little sweetie. That was an answer to a prayer too in case you were wondering:)
Thank you to all of my family for constantly being right by my side.
To my sisters, I don't know what I would have done without all of you the past 2 years....I love, love you more than you know.
Thank you to my friends from every walk of my life. At times I feel like I am the luckiest girl in the world having all of you. Everywhere I turned during that time you were ALL there, even if I didn't want you. I can't tell you what that has meant to me.
Momma, I love you more than words can express. You are and always will be my VERY best friend. Thank you for your constant love and shoulder to cry on. Like I always say...I wouldn't be me without you. I love you so very much.
Corey, my rock...this has been the longest and hardest struggle I hope that we ever have to face. Thank you for being so strong for me even when I know you were ready to break down yourself. God definitely knew what he was doing when he gave you to me, he knew how much I was going to need you. I love you more today than I ever thought possible. I can't wait to see our beautiful little miracle.
And yes, Camille and Mary Madeline we can finally get excited!!!!!!!!!!!!
