Our 12 Week Old Blessing!

The crazy thing is that God isn't any more good now than he was 12 months ago when we found out about Paul's obstructed bladder and our short future with him.  God's goodness comes in all forms.  Suffering.  And sweet joys.  Please continue praying for this sweet life and preparing our hearts for our future with this baby. 

We are using a different midwife this time, and therefore we went to a different specialist for this ultrasound.  They rushed to start the ultrasound and started asking me questions as they were measuring things and listening to the hearbeat.  I finally had to ignore them and just enjoy the sweet sound of a heartbeat and the beauty of an ultrasound with no complications.  Once we told them our history, they completely understood and went back over all the things that seem so normal for them.  Nate and I asked them more than once, "So everything is ok?  Really?"  They just smiled.  The girls came with us and loved seeing the baby.  What a special moment for us.  We left the office and Nate just looked at me with tears in our eyes.  We knew God would bless us, but we didn't know how soon it would be and how great it would feel.  Babies truly are a blessing, whether you hold them for 2 hours or enjoy them for a lifetime.  Praise the Lord!

Oh, and by the way, the awful nausea is finally gone.  Yeah!
