My BIG SURPRISE!!

Hello friends!  My last post had some news but not all the news I had wanted to share.  There has been so much happening the past few months!  Something I now want to share is very near and dear to my heart.  As some of you remember, I had a miscarriage back last October.  I'm not going to lie it was very difficult but God got us through.  When I miscarried they found a polyp and I got that removed back in January.  They said there was a chance I'd miscarry again if I got pregnant with the polyp if the baby managed to implant on that.  About a week after Easter, I found out I was pregnant again!  I was ecstatic and nervous at the same time.  I feared another miscarriage--I couldn't imagine going through that again.  God's been taking care of our little baby though and now, next week I'll be FIVE months pregnant!  We just found out August 15 (the feast of the Assumption) that our little baby is going to be a BOY!  So my mother-in-law at Ravenwood Whimzies is going to be a grandma :)  I want to take a moment now and share some pictures. 

     
Our little Minion at 8 weeks!
Baby Minion and I at 18 weeks
Can't believe how good ultrasounds have gotten!  Here he is in 4-D.  You can see his little arms grabbing his head!
Now that we know what our baby is and now that I will hopefully have a tiny bit more "free time" since we aren't getting ready for big 4th of July parties (end of June) going on vacation or getting ready for a craft show (August) I hope to blog a bit more about the happenings around here and hopefully craft a bit more to get ready for him!  I want to make him a blanket at least and maybe make a bumper for his crib. 

That's all for now--GOD IS SO GOOD! :)
