We had another big bash at my parent's house!

I thought Chandler would hate the fireworks and that we'd have to bring him inside, but, he actually did really well as long as he sat with someone (and they covered his ears)!

Blessing #2

Baby #2 is on the way!

Ultrasound from June

We are so very excited. We really wanted Chandler to have a sibling close to his age, but after our fertility problems last time, we weren't sure what to expect. We feel so blessed that we did not have to go through the same struggles again. It was almost hard for us to believe at first; "what? you can have a baby without waiting years and spending a lot of money?"

My initial struggles with Chandler taught me to hate pregnancy tests. So I waited awhile before I took one this time around. We finally decided on April 26th that I probably needed to go ahead and find out. Like last time, I woke up shaking and panicking about having to do it. I went in with the initial plan of making Josh look. I wanted to make sure I took the test correctly, though, so I watched for just a second. The line showed up immediately. I was shocked and amazed. When I came out crying Josh had no idea which way it had gone, but was over the moon when I told him it was actually positive!

The baby is due on December 29th. We are so thrilled and feel so very blessed!
