And then there were three....

Or, there will be three anyway, sometime in early September. That's right, I'm pregnant and Eric and I are anxiously awaiting the arrival of baby Maring! We found out the day after Christmas, what a preciuos gift! I am 12 weeks and we had our first ultrasound today...and how amazing. It looks like a real baby, and we got to see the heartbeat too! At first the doctor thought maybe there were twins...but lucky for us, we will get broken in with just one!





We feel so blessed to be enjoying this journey together and I feel amazed to think that God is creating such a precious little life in me...it seems so surreal.





We thought we'd post this blog so that you all (who are sadly farther away than we'd like) can enjoy watching baby and I grow. Eric may even be able to share with you some things he might build for the baby's room! We are so excited to invite you to enjoy this journey with us...check in when you feel like it and we'll try to keep you posted on all of the new and exciting things happening in our little family. May God bless you...

Wow - it's so crazy that at 12 weeks how big baby looks. I'm glad all is well and that there is only 1 (for Ann's sake!)

Horray! We are thankful everything went well today. And even more thankful you are here in GR for us to watch Ann and the baby grow - and see Eric change diapers. If you want any practice, you know where we live!

How amazing it is! Our turn will be next week Thursday, and hopefully Baby will reveal boy or girl! :) We are so glad you have a blog - it's really a great way to keep everyone in touch. Love it!
