Our BIG news....

We are expecting again! I still am kind of in shock about it at times. We have been saying for quite a while that Preston was our "grand finale" but God had better plans for us. We actually found out in january while Preston was sick and in the hospital. As you can imagine I was exceedingly nervous at that time, thinking about the possibility of another immunocompromised child, or just the sheer logistics of having another high risk pregnancy and all the fear/anxiety that comes along with it. So far things are going well. The high risk ob doc actually said I was a scary patient :-( Totally not something I really wanted the specialist to say, but I understand that I am very high risk and that I have had lots of complications in the past. I am trusting and placing my faith in God, knowing that He will be walking down this road with us. We actually had decided to keep it a secret until today, as it was Sophia's birthday and that way we could tell a majority of our family members in person. That plan however didn't work. My sisters that live up here both had to work, so they weren't there. And Matt's brothers family have an illness going through their house so they weren't there either. We had Preston wear a shirt that said "Big Bro Preston" on it. We had Sam actually read the shirt, and try to figure out what it meant. It was so cute to see the understanding come across Sophia and Sam's faces when they figured out what we were saying. My mom had the BEST REACTION ever! She was so excited and happy. I of course then started getting all these questions about my working and everything from her, she is so nervous and just wants happy and healthy for all of us. I will post pics tomorrow....
