We Are Having A

I learned what we were having at 14 weeks and 3 days.

Then again at 15

16

And 17.

By 3 different techs and doctors.

It seems like everyone wanted to know, thankfully they all also asked before looking. Just in case we were team green. Which I do not have the will power for.

So we’re pretty darn confident in knowing that we are having a…

BOY!!!!!!!!!

And we couldn’t be more thrilled. I had GRAND plans of doing this amazing ::coughPinterestcough:: post announcing it all – but finally realized I simply don’t have time to pull that off. I found myself with massive writers block while thinking of all the cute ways to tell you. So I went with what I do best – writing it out.

I guess I don’t do secrets well. 😉 But – knowing for a month and only having a few know with us was a little fun.

This pregnancy has been so healing in many ways, terrifying as it is to do all over again. He’s not a replacement for Preston and Julian. Nothing will take their places. But knowing I carry my third son, that this very day in my last pregnancy (18 weeks 5 days) I began the horrific journey of losing his brothers, it’s helping to soothe and mend my always a bit broken heart. I pray so, so hard for this little guy – that my body will carry him to a point we can bring him home in our arms.

We would have been excited no matter what – trust me. My biggest concern was and is simply his health and my body being able to hold on. However I believe God knew that having another little boy would touch my heart in a way nothing else could have.

We are so, so excited for this new little life. Our son. Hang in there little guy. We’re just about halfway to holding you.
