Throughout this whole process, we've had the greatest support from family and friends. But most importantly, we want to extend a special thanks to our parents for their constant love, support and for being there for us every step of the way. It means the world to us, and we love you very much. We can only hope to be as GREAT of parents as you were to us. We thank god everyday for being blessed with such an amazing family and you are the HEART and SOUL of our family. Thank you for everything!
The day we found out, we immediately called our parents to share this JOYOUS news! They were beyond thrilled and excited for us. It was "the news" that every parent loves to hear....MORE GRANDCHILDREN!!! :) After telling our parents, we decided we would tell the rest of the family over the holidays. The reactions were AMAZING - people screaming, jumping up and down, lots of hugs, tears, advice and well wishes. It meant so much to us.
Christmas has always been my favorite holiday, but this year was undoubtedly the BEST Christmas thus far...when we received the "Greatest Gift of All". :)
We are very much looking forward to the New Year, and all of the love, joy & happiness 2011 will bring!
Happy New Year to All! :)
We have our next ultrasound on Thursday, January 6. We are looking forward to seeing how much the baby has grown in the last 3 weeks.
Next BIG question is....BOY or GIRL???...we still have some time before that, but we'd love to know your thoughts?? Please feel free to comment.

Christmas Came Early!!!
I'm PREGNANT! On November 30, 2009 my doctors office called with our test results, and it was the GREATEST NEWS!!!!!!!!
WE are finally having a BABY!! It was an AMAZING feeling and a moment that we will never forget. We hugged, held each other tight, and cried many tears of joy! To describe how we felt in one word...BLESSED!
As most of you know, we were trying for over a year, and with the help of some GREAT doctors (AND many prayers from our family and friends), our biggest dream came true.
I had my first ultrasound on Friday, December 17, and we got to see the little peanut for the first time (see picture below). It was an unbelievable sight, and a relief to know that it's all real!! My expected due date is August 9, 2011. We are BOTH very excited and anxious to meet our li'l boy OR girl. We hope that you will join us for this amazing ride! Stay tuned for more updates. :) :)
Wishing ALL of you a VERY Merry Christmas and HAPPY New Year! :)
