Happy Days Are Here Again



This was Baby Hilburn at 9 weeks...that was 5 weeks ago. 

That's right, folks! I am pregnant again!!!! I am 3 1/2 months pregnant (or 14 weeks 4 days to be exact).

Three months after our miscarriage, we were oh-so-pleasantly suprised to find out that we were expecting another little miracle.

I am enjoying being in the 2nd trimester--no longer sick & getting fatter.

Our midwife doesn't offer ultrasounds (to do that we'd pay a fee to the OBGYN she works with), so we won't get to see Baby Hilburn again until he or she enters this world around April 20, 2013. The above ultra-sound was taken by a charitable organization that graciously offered me a one-time free unltrasound, so that's that!

We have been able to hear the baby's heartbeat several times as well as the super-cool "baby movement" sounds.

Again, thank you to our countless friends and family members who have cried, laughed & cried again with us through life's journey.  We know that we've never walked alone.

This song, by my favorite artist, says it all.
