All is well!

We had a sonogram yesterday, and everything looked great! We have a tiny person with a tiny beating heart! I was so excited and amazed. I am amazed at the technology advances in just the last seven years. The sonogram was so detailed! We could see arm buds, leg buds, everything. When I had an early sonogram with Kiley, it was a blurry bean with a heart beat! Even more amazing, Heavenly Father created all of this spectacular creation process. I stand in awe every time I see a new baby! The fact that a person is suddenly where there once was no one is amazing! We are 8 weeks along, and it all looks great so far! I feel so blessed!

Those of you who know me well, you know I am an anxious worrier, and lately I keep thinking of this song that Amber Richards (Stalder) and her mom sang at my baptism. I found it in the playlists, and I just love it. I am so grateful for a Heavenly Father who listens and loves me.

I love getting sonograms early! I know that I'm sick and all that, but it's so nice to actually SEE that it's happening for a reason. What a sweet post, I'm a little choked up!

Congratulations!!! How very exciting for you! Babies are the best. My news totally feels wrongly placed here with such wonderful exciting news! But you won over at Girly Do's on my giveaway.

Congratulations on your sweet addition!

I am so happy to hear that all is great. Thanks again for helping with the kids. It really was great to get to be with family. And sorry I didn't call you this last weekend. It was crazy buzy. Alan's family all came up for the game on Saturday and then of course we had to have the Wahls vs. the Palmers in basketball. It is no excuse, but I will call you soon.

Jordan and Ariana said...

Wow, congrats on the next bundle of joy. We've yet to have a great sonogram, so hopefully next time! Have you done the makeover site yet?
