We were cruising along in our pregnancy with Beau and things were going well. He was an active baby and this was so reassuring for me. I was obsessed with feeling his kicks and videoing my belly move. I didn’t let one opportunity to enjoy his pregnancy pass me by. With that said, I still…

As our pregnancy progressed I had moments of excitement, nervousness, fear, anxiety, and joy. It was an up and down process, to say the least. As I mentioned in my last blog, I would just pray in the moments of fear and anxiety and trust that God would provide for us. I had also mentioned…

Prior to our positive pregnancy test, I was attending the Sarah’s Laughter meetings every other week. Every new week brought on a new sense of peace for me. I would share our current situation, whether that was me waiting for a cycle, going back to work, or dealing with a negative pregnancy test. Whatever it…

After our first month of trying to conceive following the loss of our daughter came to an end, I felt so disappointed. I wanted so badly to be pregnant again and to experience those happy feeling that she had provided for me. I knew no other baby would replace her, but I also knew how…

My sister was there, in…

Around 6pm on the same evening that we were told our sweet baby girl had gone to be with Jesus, I took my first dose of medication in attempt to start labor. Our family had arrived not long after we were settled in our L&D room. And some of our closest friends as well. Seeing…

As our pregnancy progressed with Sawyer, we fell more and more in love with her! We felt like we already knew her little personality from the kicks and rolls that she would respond with when we talked to her! Every single night, Brandon would lay his head on my belly and talk to her. It…

The month following our miscarriage our OB approved us to move forward with our plans of starting a family. So what do you think happened? Another positive pregnancy test! I couldn’t believe it! I never imagined things would go this quickly for us. The date was August 22, 2014 and I had a sneaking suspicion…
