We finally got some professional pictures taken of our little cupcake. This was for 6 month birthday/Easter. (Plus the 3 black and white ones on the side.)
I was wondering what had happend to you! Wow! It sounds like you've been busy! Exciting that you bought a house! I bet it's bigger than the places we have here on the peninsula. Congratulations! Jessica looks so much bigger! She's so pretty.
Activity Girls is going well and we had our daddy/daughter dinner last wednesday and it went great. I'm relieved that it's over but had a lot of fun with it. I'll post pictures of it on my blog as soon as I get a chance to. We should be getting our pen pal letters back soon too because the leader in Colorado called and said they were writing them that night. The girls will be excited about that. We miss you! Glad to see you're getting settled though. Maybe someday you'll be back for a visit??
Yay! So fun to read your new posts! Jessica is so gorgeous! Joshua is going to be a lucky man! (in about 20 years!) The house looks beautiful from the outside! Put up some pics from the inside when you're done unpacking/decorating!!!
So, I guess it's about time to announce... we're having a baby! Hank is finally getting his boy! I am 22 weeks along (5 months), and we are due May 21st. So far, the pregnancy has gone just swimmingly. I had a little internal bleeding in the beginning, which put me on bedrest for a couple days, but everything is better now and looking great. Our little boy is growing right on track and kicking me constantly! I'm feeling all sorts of aches and pains and total exhaustion and I couldn't be happier. It's wonderful to actually feel pregnant. Oh, and by the way, my stomach is HUGE. Which Hank insists he thinks is hot. Whatever. Do we have a name picked out yet? Not even close. Between Hank and I not being able to agree on anything, and me being the most indecisive person in the world, I don't think we're going to decide on a name anytime soon. Jessica is slowly starting to understand what's going on and she is excited. She tries to talk to him...
"What a good story..." "Wait a minute - is that a shoe?" "OMG! I want to touch it." "What? I'm just listening to the story." "Hey, she moved it." "Mom, she moved it." "Wait a minute - is that a story?"
I know this is the first time I've mentioned this on my blog, but I guess it's about time. It has been three weeks since our daughter, Anna, was stillborn. I was seven and a half months pregnant when we went to Utah to visit family for the holiday weekend. While we were there I noticed that I hadn't felt the baby move for a little while, so Hank and I went to the hospital to check it out. When they did an ultrasound they found that her little heart wasn't beating. From early on in the pregnancy we knew that things weren't quite right. She consistently measured six to eight weeks too small and the doctors suspected a heart defect. They had told us that there was a possibility that she wouldn't make it, but we tried to keep our hopes up. So, when we saw her on the ultrasound, we knew right away what had happened. The doctor induced labor and after about 10 hours I delivered our little angel. Anna Denise was born at 1:19am on July 4, 2010. She weighed 1 ...
