Going to see Hannah!

Olivia was excited to get a chance to see Hannah with her Aunt and cousin. They had a really good time. Olivia got home late last night so I haven't had a chance to talk to her about it too much, but she definitely enjoyed it!

6w5d

We've got one little bean with a nice strong heartbeat. Nothing is more beautiful than seeing (and hearing) that little heart beating away. Despite the fact that he heard the heartbeat, Maxwell still refuses to believe there's a baby in there, I think he's waiting on my stomach to be huge before he believes it. I'll have another ultrasound in about 3 weeks. Already counting the days until that one!

Maxwell

Maxwell's preschool choir performed a few songs the other night at church. It's cute watching him trying to keep up with the sign language. Turn your volume down some!

Pregnant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It almost doesn't even seem real. It's been such a long journey. Even though our chances of pregnancy were high (60%) given that we did IVF, I still felt as though it couldn't possibly happen. I guess that comes with almost 2 years of trying to have a healthy baby. We are now one step closer to bringing a baby home from the hospital.

I'm amazed that God has blessed us with another pregnancy. I pray that he will once again bless us with a healthy child; a child of His, to love, teach and watch over. I pray that each of our children are molded in a way that will give glory to God and that His light will shine through them.

Tiger

To say the kids (especially Maxwell) are enjoying the cat, is putting it mildly. Thankfully we chose a cat that tolerates the kids very well!

Maybe Baby/Babies?

I thought I'd post a picture of our little embryos. They are both 8 cells, which is exactly where they are suppose to be for 3 days past retrieval, the one on top is the prettiest but the one on bottom may actually be the harder worker, it's not as pretty b/c it's beginning to divide into a 10 cell embryo.

Trunk or Treat

Our church had a fun evening planned for everyone Wed. night. A bunch of people get their cars and theme out their trunks for the kids. For example, our sunday school class had a Christmas theme so there were a bunch of Christmas decorations and music playing, etc. There were Native American themes, Pirates, a tailgating theme....just a bunch of different stuff. It was really fun and of course, there were jumping castles and slides. The kids had a great time!
