Baby # 2


   Well if you are my friend on Facebook or Instagram you would know that we are expecting Baby number 2! We are very excited. I plan on doing belly updates starting Friday. I will 16 weeks then! Well as I have already said I was on my 4th round of Clomid and I still wasn't getting pregnant. I went to my specialist to start doing some tests to see what was wrong with me. I had to wait 8 weeks after my last dose so my hormones would be straight. I got my period about 7 weeks in so I would have to wait until my next period so I could get tested. Well a few weeks after that I started to feel very bloated. No sickness or anything I was just feeling chunky. So I thought we'll I am pregnant which I highly doubted or I just needed to start running again. It was a Sunday and we had just gotten back from a drive up the canyon. On the way home we talked about how we both feel strongly about adoption and that would be the best route to go right now. When I got home I decided to take a test just in case. I used the test and left the bathroom. I have taken so many tests and have seen so many negative signs that i really didn't want to look. About 20 minutes later I went in to look at it. It was positive. Braxton was home and I said his name and came out of the bathroom holding the stick with tears in my eyes. Braxton didn't believe it he was like stop playing around but once he saw my face I think he knew I was serious. Braxton made be drink a gallon of water so I could take another test and sure enough it was positive. I took about 12 tests, set up my appointment and the rest is history.
  I have learned that The Lord answers his prayers on his own timeline. We were praying so hard every night and we had faith that things would work out. Sure enough our prayers have been answered. Adalee is excited and I think she understands what is going on. I am due December 27th. It is a terrible time of year for a birthday but all I want is a healthy baby anyway!  Thanks for all the prayers on our behalf also!
