SURPRISE!

March 28, 2013

Pretty soon after we arrived at my parents house I just couldn't shake the feeling that I just wasn't feeling well. I was tired. I mean I was TIRED. I couldn't remember stuff. I was kind of crabby. I was really starting to get worried that it was Lyme. I hadn't had symptoms of Lyme in over a year so I thought I was pretty much in the clear but I just knew that had to be it. Ugh!

Something in the back of my mind kept nagging me though and I started to think that perhaps I should just take a pregnancy test and just prove that I wasn't. I took the test. Here's what happened.

Now as a person who only six years ago was told that I would never get pregnant with my own eggs I don't think that I would ever be able to get one of these and not be happy about it. We prayed for children for so long and I remember having this peace that we would have a large family. When the twins were born I thought that was it. When I got pregnant out of the blue with sweet little man it was an absolute miracle. I used to joke that it was my dream to accidentally get pregnant. So this was a blessing. I do have to admit that I was really surprised. With sweet little man we weren't trying but we weren't really not trying either. I was ready for another little one. This time I'm just shocked. I had to call Brad and text him the photo. He was immediately smitten with the idea which put me at such ease. Brad is my rock. If he's at ease with an idea then I know it's okay. AND what a blessing it is. Can you believe it?! I mean CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?! I did three rounds of IVF and a frozen embryo transfer, people! I'm not supposed to get pregnant. I'm so blessed that we went through those troubles. Seriously, without them I wouldn't have miss L and I simply cannot imagine my life without her. I just can't believe that this miracle is happening again.

Miss L is beside herself at the thought of being a big sister again and mister W is right there with her. Sweet little man has no idea what is going to happen to his life, but there you have it! WE'RE HAVING ANOTHER BABY!
