Gender: That's the question of the pregnancy!  Honestly, I could careless.  All I want is a healthy baby.  However... My sweet hubby really wants a baby boy (since we already have a girl) and my sweet baby girl really wants a baby girl!  TB says she already enough brothers (4 to be exact) and she doesn't need another one.

Symptoms: Morning sickness (or all day sickness), sore breasts, fatigue and so much more...

Best Moment This Week: Making it to 12 weeks!!!

Weekly Wisdom: Every pregnancy is as different as every child :)

Someone's Going to be a Big Sister...

 I know, I am a total slacker in the blogging world but I have a valid reason.  I have not been able to blog because we had a secret that needed to be kept hush, hush!  We are beyond thrilled to announce that Baby Payne will be joining our family in April 2012!

One happy girl ;)

That's right, I am twelve weeks today and we couldn't be more excited!!!  I have been one sick Momma BUT it will totally be worth it so there are no complaints from me!  We tried to get pregnant for two months and bam we are pregnant...  But on my birthday (June 22nd) our biggest fears came true and we lost that baby.  This was my second miscarriage and it was hard!  Then two months later we found out we were blessed with another sweet baby.  Because of all the complications with TB and having two failed pregnancies I am considered "high risk".  I called my doctor, Dr P, and explained I did not want to be "high risk" yet because that term really stresses me out.  Dr P willing agreed and scheduled me at 10 weeks.  This could quite possibly of been the longest 10 weeks of our lives.  We went and were able to see Baby P is well and growing.

We have another doctors appointment next Monday and we are praying at that appointment we will be able to schedule the next ultrasound!

Please keep me, Baby P, T and sweet TB in your prayers!  We need a healthy pregnancy, momma and family!
