#2 on the way, Thankful!

Mike, Graham and I are thankful and excited to announce that we are going to have another sweet baby! Graham is going to be a big brother. After finding out we were pregnant at 4 weeks along, my doctor started blood work to watch my hcg (hormone levels) rise properly! After 2 1/2 weeks of getting blood work every 3 days, we were rejoicing to know that this baby is growing just as is it supposed to! So thankful! We have had 2 ultra sounds already, which is always fun and breath taking to see a living little love flickering with life. The heart beat has been strong since week 6. So far everything is looking very good. I am in good care this pregnancy for sure, my doctor has stamped my chart as a high risk pregnancy- meaning they just watch everything extra closely. It is amazing the peace and joy God has given me with this child. After our experience with Graham- our little family is praying for a longer, safe, pregnancy- and of course a healthy baby.
Thank you for your prayers and love through this time.
We went to the doctor today and heard the heart beat, it was 155 bpm. That is the sweetest sound to a mother's ears to hear the miracle within. So my due date is Feb 7th 2010! We are excited for have another child and thankful each day granted! So far I have been tired, but able to take a nap here and there during Graham's afternoon nap. We will keep u posted on number 2! Thank you for celebrating with us!

Congratulations Mike, Shelli & Graham!! You all are going to have so much fun adding another little one to your family! I pray everything goes perfectly through this pregnancy and that would you have such sweet peace through the entire process!
Also, I just read this book called Supernatural Childbirth by Jackie Mize that I am recommending to EVERYONE that is even thinking about having babies! It's a super little book that is this one couple's testimony about getting into God's word and praying His promises over their pregnancies and more. It's just a really encouraging testimony! I strongly recommend it!
