'Cause I'm about to burst......

We've got a little bit of news:
I'm officially 8 weeks and just can't hold it in any longer!! We know its a little early but the hubs and I agreed to wait until 8 weeks to make an official announcement. We know its still early but we are cautiously optimistic. Last Monday we were able to see our little miracle and see a nice strong heartbeat. So like I said, cautiously optimistic. But friends we're counting on your prayer to get us through this, as the unknown can be scary. We know the Lord is with us and has a plan for our newest addition and we can't wait to see what it is!

I started a post yesterday reflecting on my feelings of pregnancy following a miscarriage but I can't even finish it. My heart is heavy with all going on in the world right now and several friends that are hurting with miscarriages of their own, so I didn't finish it.

Plus to be honest I am completely exhausted, so I apologize for the lacking of great blog content. The last two weeks I feel like I've been hit by a bus and unless I am eating I'm pretty queasy (I'm going to end up being huge!). I don't want to complain though because I welcome the constant reminder of being pregnant. With the girls the only signs I ever had was my growing belly. So thankful, but pooped.

To make matters worse the hubs is gone for the week (well home well after bedtime every night) on business and all afternoon and evening yesterday Bella was throwing up. This is not good for a nauseated pregnant woman. And Brynn was quite needy as well. So I was tired, now I am just sleep walking. : )

Couple prayer requests:
Continued health for our new little bean
Also they discovered a cyst on one of my ovaries so I have to go in next week to check it out again, just pray things will resolve themselves or have an easy (painless!) solution
Pray I can be a better functioning mommy and wife
Please pray that Brynn does not get the stomach flu too (well any of us for that matter)!!

Thanks so much for reading, we are so excited to share in our excitement with all of our real and bloggy friends!

Congratulations! So happy for you! Seeing the heartbeat is a very encouraging sign! Try to take it easy and not worry too much. I know it's hard after a miscarriage. I've been there too.
Praying for you!
