After 16 months of disappointing test and infertility testing and talk of insemination, God showed us whose boss. He has really taught us patience and that this life is not in our control.
Thursday afternoon we found out that the positive home pregnancy test we took Wednesday night was confirmed and we are expecting our precious gift at the end of October 2012!
We are beyond excited and feel incredibly blessed!
We found out just in time for Joel to leave for Afghanistan today (Sunday)... on the bright side, at least I was able to tell him in person and not over Skype and this deployment is ONLY 4 months (that's what I keep telling myself)
So, J won't be missing much, just the first few sonograms which I can record and send to him and he'll be back home just in time to find out the sex of our sweet little peanut!
I do feel very fortunate that he will be home for the 3rd trimester and on!
It's a little early but we decided to buy little baby Reeves a few things before daddy left :)
Saying 'See you in July' was the hardest part!
While he is gone I have decided to keep him and our family updated on week to week changes in our little peanuts development!
So stay tuned... 5 weeks and 4 days down, only 34 weeks and 3 days to go!!
