Gender Reveal!!

Today was THE ultrasound.  We were able to find out the gender of our baby today.  We wanted to make it fun for the kids so when James got home from cub scouts, we got out the pinata and told the kids that if the candy inside was Frozen it was a girl, if it was Avengers it was a boy.  Malachi was really excited for the Peatta.  It was so cute to hear him say pinata. I made a video, but it isn't working on here.  We are so excited to be having a girl!!  We already have her name picked out and everything.  What a blessing we are going to have.

Surprise!!!

Miracles do truly happen.  I see them every day, in every aspect of my life.  Today I got the miracle of my life.  I woke up yesterday morning about 4:00am.  I was surprised how hungry I was.  I was so hungry I got up out of bed and went to the kitchen to eat a banana.  I went back to bed and slept until it was time to get up for work.  As Jon and I were getting ready I told him how weird it was that I woke up starving and had to go get a banana.  He made the comment "Maybe your pregnant."  I said "No Way.. We both know that isn't possible."  We both just disregarded it and went about our day.  As I was sitting at work I started looking at the calendar knowing it should be time for me to call the Dr for my monthly fertility pills.  I started counting, and recounting and....realized....I was 4 days late.  That is very unusual for me.  When Jon went to the store last night, I asked him to pick up a pregnancy test.  This morning I opened up the test and decided to take it while Jon was in the shower.  To my surprise and unbelief there it was in black and white.  I was pregnant.  I couldn't believe it.  I was so grateful tears started to come to my eyes.  When Jon got out of the shower I showed him the test and he too was speechless for a minute.  After coming to the realization it was true we were so excited.  I can't believe I will finally have a biological child.  This has truly been a miracle.
