isn't september such a wonderful month?

We sure think so! Finally I can share our news ... and doesn't the picture just say it all!? This really is a dream come true for us as we have struggled through 2+ years of trying to conceive - including many tests, a procedure, too many months of timing, temping, and charting my cycle, and finally on to 3 months of increasing dosages of fertility meds. Not the experience we ever imagined! But we are stronger for it and we certainly felt ever more thankful and blessed to see that magic word materialize one January morning ... Pregnant.

So I am just 11 weeks along now and have been feeling marvelously thus far. So thankful for that. We are having such fun telling all our family and friends this past weekend and today, many who have been aware of the journey we have undertaken to this point. I can't believe it ... it's actually us ... we're having a baby! What happiness I feel. And how I love sharing this experience with Sam, my best friend.

So the beans are spilled, the countdown is on, the belly a'groweth. And of course, I just wanted you all to know!
