On Saturday morning, we gathered the kids onto the couch for an exciting family announcement!
(Sorry for the weird lighting that covers my face!)
We were just tickled with their response!
We are so thankful to God for the precious new life that is growing inside me! We feel doubly blessed that this baby is healthy, since we actually had a miscarriage in November.
It was so beautiful to see/hear a strong heartbeat on Friday at my appointment.
Expected arrival of this new baby is early September, and I’m 8 weeks along right now.
(If you’re currently struggling with not being able to get pregnant or have recently suffered a loss, please know that my heart goes out to you. I wrote this post last time around, but I still feel everything in it!)
In the picture above, baby is head down, bottom up!
Later in the day on Saturday, Vera came up to me and said, “Mommy, I prayed that God would give us a new baby!” (So sweet, right?)
And still later, Cordelia came running into my room and yelled, “MOMMY! Have you had the baby yet?!”
While Tad was out at the grocery store that afternoon, I heard the girls discussing where he was.
“He went out to get the new baby,” explained CC to Vera.
Grateful for my silly girls who keep me laughing, and my incredibly supportive husband who is keeping the house running while I’m sick!
