Starting to Poke out! My pants are getting tight!

8 Weeks!

We Passed!!

Around July 3rd or so, some cells started dividing and some hormones started tripling to give us this grade on a recent test we took!

At the end of Juse the Dr found an ovarian cyst on my right ovary that was the size of a baseball. They weren't very sure what caused it or why it got so big so fast, but they recomended that I have it removed. The posibilities of the cycst were a little scary and worst case senerio I could be left unable to have children. I was scheduled to have surgery to remove it on July 14th. I purchased a preggo test just to be sure that I was not with child when they operated, but I completely forgot to take it the morning of the surgery. The surgery went well and I recovered very quickly. That following Sat, Ben and I were sleeping in and chatting before we got out of bed. For some strange reason I remembered the pregnancy test I bought and just for the heck of it asked Ben if we should take it. Not expecting it to be any thing but negative. I proceeded with the test and lightly saw the second line appear vaguely. I ran back into the room to find Ben sitting on the bed reading the box and asked Him "what symbol means positive?" , His face lit up and he said "let me see it!". We traded test for box and looked at each other in disbelief.

What a roller coaster these past few months have been! All the way from pondering what it would be like not to be able to have children... to... surprise! you are able to have children and you will in 9 mos! We are so thankful for the grace that God has shown us in allowing this little one to be formed. At a time that we were so unsure of what the future held, God knew and found it fit to give us a perfect gift!

So little Saunders is on his or her way and should make an apperance some time around March 27th 2009. We could not be happier. Praise the Lord for this execelent and perfect will for our lives. We give him all the praise!
