We did it!

Yay! We are finally pregnant! March would have been two full years since we started this long process of trying to conceive, and God has finally blessed us! Christopher and I are both ecstatic about this as well as nervous. We are aware that our lives are changing forever, but we also know that it will be great!

We found out Sunday night. I decided to test so that I could see the negative result and stop thinking that I could be pregnant, but instead of seeing a negative, a second line immediately started to show up. I started shaking and laughing and I got Christopher to come take a look at it. He saw the line, too, and it was pretty dark, but we still weren't sure. So we bought some digital tests that night and tested again. Less than a minute went by before the test read "Pregnant."

I believe that the baby will be due on November 1, give or take a week. My first appointment will be in about two and a half weeks, and I will update everyone then. I will be giving regular updates (I hope) on the pregnancy as well as progression pictures because, well, it's just fun!

We covet the prayers of everyone right now that this will be a good pregnancy and that our baby will grow and develop properly and not come before the proper time.

Oh, your comment was so sweet! It is wonderful that we have hope in knowing that we will see Addie again. I can't tell you how much my faith has meant throughout all we went through, especially in explaining Addie's death to our 3 year old. It was challenged in ways we couldn't have imagined but we learned, once again, that God is always faithful and it seems like he blesses us through the things that we think will be the most difficult. Thanks so much for stopping by. I love to share about Addie! It sounds like you've experienced a pretty difficult loss yourself. It takes so much time to work through, I can't imagine the loss of one of my parents. Congratulations on your pregnancy, it is so exciting and amazing. I look forward to getting to know you better on babycenter!
