Another addition to our family.....

It has been a crazy past couple months. Pat and I have gone through a lot and really have grown stronger together. We have cried, laughed and cried some more. I have leaned on him and he on me. It is a very emotional thing to loose a baby. We will never forget our baby and will always love baby. We visited where our baby was buried at the cemetery and it was a very powerful thing. We will go to visit every February 25th (the due date) and say hello, send some love and have a little chat until we meet again in heaven. We are blessed to have a little angel looking over our family and sending us love from heaven. We love you baby!

And today we are very excited to share that we have another little addition to our family. We are about 7 weeks along and our baby was brought into this world (and my belly) on our anniversary. I think that is amazingly cool.

We had our second ultrasound today and here are the photos of our little one below......baby is about the size of a blueberry so it is just a little peanut. We saw the heartbeat which was amazing and it was beating at 140 BPM which is good. Normal heartbeats range from 120-180 .We had an ultrasound at about 5 weeks where they just saw the gestational sac and yolk which is great news. They wanted to bring us back around 7 weeks to see the heartbeat. Here is the first photo of baby!!!

Mama has been very tired and very nauseous, all of which I love. I love everything that comes with pregnancy and am welcoming it with open arms! Even after I get sick and I just smiling and loving every minute of it. It feels good to feel all that comes with being pregnant and to know that my body is working hard making a comfortable little home for baby and needs all the energy I can give it. I am happy to do it! And the nausea that comes with the hormome surges, bring them on!

Both Pat and I are very excited. But still there is part of us that is still anxious and still have a hard time letting our guard down a little. We are very grateful for every day that we have that our baby is healthy and growing. I have a feeling this little one is healthy, happy and strong and we cannot wait to meet baby July 21st, 2009!

So I wanted to share our good news with all of you and reach out for any prayers and positive thoughts for us and baby that you can send! I am excited to share this journey with you again.
Love you!
BC, PC and baby
