2 + 1 = 3

After meeting with my doctor today, I finally feel more comfortable sharing our good news with everyone! We found out that I was pregnant on Christmas day, which was by far the best gift we received that day! Most of you know that we've been going through fertility issues for the past year and a half, so we are EXTREMELY grateful to be pregnant.

Right now I am 10 weeks pregnant with a September 2nd due date. It was fun (and reassuring) to see the baby being very active and kicking it's legs around during the ultrasound today. We want to thank everyone who has been praying for us, and I especially want to thank my friends here in Vegas who have taken care of me after my surgeries.

On a sidenote, shortly after telling my family that I was pregnant I was talking to my mom on the phone and she shared a really sweet story with me about my brother during the days leading up to his death. The day that I had my first miscarriage was also the day that he received more bad news regarding his cancer, and I was so touched to hear that he wept for me when he heard of my news even though he had much bigger trials of his own to be concerned about.

Anyway, I recently found out that a couple of days before he passed away he told his wife that when he got to heaven he was going to do everything in his power to help me get pregnant. He has always been the kind of person to think about everyone else but himself, and I give a lot of credit to him for petitioning my case on the other side. I truly believe that he has been watching over me and I am so grateful to have him as one of my angels.
