Pink or Blue...or yellow?

SOOO, I don't know how I am going to sleep tonight because tomorrow we MAY or may not find out if we are having a boy or girl...AHHH...I am officially 14 weeks 3 days and if positioned correctly we could be hearing those magic words..."IT'S A..."

Anyway I am super, way, fabulously excited and wanted to share...
What an incredible journey so far...I am an eating, peeing machine and I just can't wait to feel those kicks and jabs...I will have a NEW, larger picture of our miracle to brag about and post! Thanks for everyone who is reading. Please feel free to share your experiences with me! I would love to hear your story, your moment, your miracle :)

Happy night to all...
I hope to be able to to report some exciting news tomorrow!!!!!
Pink or blue? What do YOU think it could be???

As I think about it...this could be my very last moment in LIFE to NOT know who is coming into our world forever...God sure is AMAZING, isn't he?

Always,

OOOOOO....MMMMMMMM...GGGGGGG :) ...

Have you ever seen anything more beautiful in your entire life....???
ok wait, if you are a parent I allow you to think that YOUR child is the most beautiful :) hahahah j/k

BUT seriously this is the most magical, most precious thing I have ever seen!!! I am 12 weeks and 3 days. They gave me a dvd of the entire ultrasound and we saw the little bean jumpin' around and waving his/her hands! I saw little fingers, little toes and BOOMING heartbeat! I am the HAPPIEST woman on earth and I just can't believe how blessed I am. Nothing else could ever matter more...
I wanted to share my joy and hope that if anyone else out there reading my words is expecting a new baby, I wish you all the happiness in the world. This is truly and purely AMAZING...
I LOVE BABIESSSSSS!!!!!

Hey there...

HI everyone...as you can imagine I have been RIDICULOUSLY sick for the past 5 or 6 weeks! I am sick all the time but this is the happiest I've ever been! Little honey bee is growing leaps and bounds and I wanted to post my 9 week ultrasound for you all to see but I can't upload it for whatever reason on my work computer :( I am officially 12 weeks and I just CAN'T wait to see what that picture is going to come out like then...


In this last ultrasound (and I have one every 2 weeks now) We saw him or her MOVING. It was nothing less than AMAZING! I wish I could share that but I did not take a video...BUT tomorrow I will be going for the 1st trimester screening and I get an entire DVD of my little bambino or bambinette so I can see it all day long!!!! I am sooooo freakin' excited! I had a little scare last week on Tuesday where I had RED blood and I freaked and ran to my Doctor...but there was our little bean on the screen with a gorgeous heartbeat and nothing to worry about. I haven't bled again. My Dr. said that it was my placenta that had seperated a bit and that sometimes you bleed because of it..I am keeping hope and prayers that it's the last blood I ever see but you just never know. If I have learned one thing through this so far, it's that EVERY woman is so different. You can kill yourself reading and googling but nothing will make it for sure...whatever happens is going to so just wish for a healthy and beautiful pregnancy!

Anyway I realize I need to update a lot more and jot down things I am feeling and thinking and wondering about. I hope you are all well out there and happy! Wish me luck tomorrow when I go in at 9am! :) How cool would it be if I were able to post a video!!! :) Till tomorrow everyone...

Mother Teresa...

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self... centered;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true
enemies; Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and your God;
It was never between you and them anyway.

~Mother Teresa

Best sound I ever heard...

For all those wondering what happened yesterday...
I went to the Doctor yesterday and had an ultrasound and there was definitely ONE baby! :) :) :) You have no idea the relief I felt when I SAW that blinking little bean up on that big screen! Not only was that absolutely magical and amazing but then the technician turned up the volume with NO warning and I heard the most beauiful sound I ever did hear...a heartbeat SO loud, so strong that I started to cry. I actually heard my baby's heartbeat for the 1st time EVER in life! I will never get this moment back...that was the most incredible thing I have ever heard and I only have God to thank for that moment. I will treasure it and never forget it.

Next time I am definitely bringing a recording device so I can hear it EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE. Maybe I can even figure out how to post an audio clip so I can share it all with you :)

To all those who thought of me or prayed for me...THANK YOU. We did it! We got through the first major week and I have nothing but GOODNESS to report...I go next Thursday at 9 am to see him or her and hear it all over again :) It's like me and my little bean have dates every week :) I love this! I love life!

Officially the happiest girl in the world!

Dear God...

Please be with me today as I travel to the Doctors office. Please hold my hand as they do yet another ultrasound. Will they find one or two? I just want one healthy blessing from above. We just want to get to January and have you always in our hearts, by our side, protecting and loving us. Thank you to all of those praying. Friends, family and people who I don't even know are keeping us in their thoughts and that means more to me than you know. Thank you for giving us another day to live and to breathe. Thank you for this miracle. Please keep the inside of my tummy safe and let the heavens smile down on all of us who need it today :)

In your name we pray, Amen.
