Just When I Thought I Had It All Figured Out...

God chuckled and said, "SURPRISE!!"




Baby says, "Hello Readers!"




'Baby Gem' this week at 13 weeks and due to arrive February 9, 2012.


I guess God has a sense of humor after all. And I'm so glad He's got everything under control and taken care of.*




*I can say this now after getting over the initial shock that lasted several weeks.lol.

**The name 'Baby Gem' came from a text I received from a friend when I shared the news. She reminded me that God had this wonderful gem in mind for me all along and everything was going to be just fine.

  9. When I had difficulty conceiving after my first, my Mom used to say, just wait, once you get pregnant, you will have a much easier time getting pregnant again. While that was not the case for me, it most certainly is for you! CONGRATULATIONS! So happy for you!!!

  14. Congratulations Sarah. Excited for you. Praise God for the gap between the oldest 2 and youngest 2 kids now as you have 2 great helpers. I am sure your big girl will have no trouble helping out.
    I can also just imagine your shock. Did you find out right away or only after the nausea set in? I pray you have made it passed the most difficult portion of pregnancy.
