I found out that I was expecting baby number 2 on January 22, 2009! I will try to be faithful and document each month with a belly picture and some details about that month. Here is my first month! :)
My first picture of baby #2! I didn't take a picture of Brooke's, so I wanted to make sure I did it this time.
Brookie and I made this little card for daddy for when he came home from work-the outside...
...the inside... My wonderful artistic abilities, as you can see! :)

Waiting outside for daddy to come home so we could tell him our exciting news! I was just looking at her and thinking I can't believe how grown up my little girl is and that I am doing this all over again!
She handed him the card and he didn't even open it at first. He said, "aww, thank you boomie!" (nickname for her :) I said, "Open it daddy!" He did and again didn't really read it, just said, "aww" again, then looked closer and said, "You are!!!" And he had tears in his eyes! Then we all had a big group hug! It was so sweet!
This is my first "belly" shot---if you can call it that---at about 4 weeks pregnant.
Of course we had to go out and celebrate! We went to Cheddars and had chips and queso which I've been craving and split the chicken fingers for supper. Mmm so yummy!
What can I say other than God is so good to me! I am so blessed that God has decided to let me carry another child. I have already told him that if he decides to take it before birth that it is his baby and I've dedicated it to Him. If he does see fit to take me to full term and have a beautiful healthy little baby in my arms, it is still His baby and I am the most blessed woman in the world!
Please pray that I would have a safe and healthy pregnancy! I've been feeling pretty good, just very tired and nauseous at night, just like I was with Brooklynne. I'm due around September 30th, but won't know for sure until March when I have my first appointment (they won't until about 8-9 weeks).

Isn't it great that God gives us the same excitement with each pregnancy? Giving our children to Him is so very important. It keeps your focus on Who is really in control - even after they are born. It's a continual thing. May this little one's life be totally used for God's glory!

I feel like I have missed so much being away! I am thrilled for you! I was actually thinking about you recently wondering when you were going to have another baby. Not to be funny or anything, but just thinking that Brooke is getting a little older and that is the age that I would want another baby. Congratulations and God Bless!!!
Congratulations!!!
