19 weeks

_MG_7306 Today was our ultrasound and we got a sneak peek at our littlest one! The ultrasound tech said we had a very photogenic baby that kept getting into perfect positions for her to take pictures!

Today helped make this a little bit more real for us. As a lot of you know, this little one was quite the surprise! We thought 4 was a good number to stop on, but apparently someone else had other plans and we have been blessed with number 5. As soon as she put the ultrasound wand on my belly a perfect little profile showed up and my heart skipped a beat. This baby is perfect and such a gift and blessing and we are so happy that he or she will be in our arms in 5 months.

I'm excited for this unexpected last chance. I get to feel sweet baby kicks once again, to lay awake at night those last few weeks wondering if tomorrow will be the day we will finally meet our baby, and find out if it's a he or a she. I can't wait to see how Grayson reacts when he meets him or her.

It may have been a surprise (and a big one at that) but I am so thankful and feel so blessed that we get to add another sweet baby to our family. I am excited that Grayson will have a sibling close to his age to play with and learn to share with. I'm excited that our house is bursting at the seams with laughter, love and life. We don't have very many dull moments at our house, I rarely hear the words "I'm bored" because there is always someone to play with or go on an adventure with, and I know without a doubt this little one is going to fit in just perfectly!

New Addition

So, I'm sure most of you are aware (because of facebook) that once again our family is growing, but thought I would share over here too! tiebreaker We are very excited and know that God intended for this little one to be in our lives, we are looking forward to meeting him or her and finding out whether the girls or boys are going to be taking over the house. I am 19 weeks right now, my due date is January 5th, 2013. It was a pretty rough go the first 15 or so weeks, and I have never been so sick at the beginning of my pregnancy. Luckily, my amazing husband was able to fill in for me, and I truly am blessed to have him in my life!! I hope to start blogging more even if it's just a picture post and keep you all updated. We have also been making some changes around the house, so I will do a house tour little by little. Pinterest has me constantly crafting and decorating! I hope that you are all enjoying the summer and that the last few weeks of it go by a little slower than normal, and that I am able to enjoy the moments of having my children home with me!! I truly love that time!!
