Well Then!

As it seems I have not stayed caught up on my blog posts. Mostly this past 4 months has been so emotionally and physically draining I haven't had a chance or the desire. In March, Stuart and I had another miscairrage at nearly 12 weeks. Coming right on the heals of moving into our new house. We were floored and devastated. I am still struggling largly because we are nearing the due date of our first miscairrage and then another loss on top of that. I feel very discouraged. Though many people have expressed that we should just be happy with our two girls(and I am) and let it go, we still feel the desire to have another child. I have always had the desire to raise a large family and would have 9 or 10 if it were not so impractical. All of this said, we are healing and moving on. We are seeing a doctor to see if there is possibly something is going on that is causing the miscairraiges. And have even started to think about a possible future adoption, though we are only in beginning stages of even considering it. We still have high hopes that we will add to our family.

News!

We are pleased to announce that we are adding baby #3 in September or early October. All four of us are thrilled about the new addition. Blaire insists that it is a girl and Presleigh is in the boy camp.

I have been feeling pretty up and down, with very little energy which right now is a bit problematic as we have just purchased a new home and are planning on moving next week. The bonus is I am exempt from the "moving" duties, but I am not looking forward to packing and unpacking boxes.

That said, we are excited about our new digs. While it is a modest home, it is going to be much more suitable for our needs. We are going from 2 bedrooms to 5 and 1 bathroom to 3. I can't wait to be able to take an uninterrupted bath(i.e. no little girls needing to potty, while I am in the tub). Plus, the neighborhood is awesome!

Blaire's Christmas Pictures

I am terribly embarrased to say that I got Christmas pictures of Blaire but not of Presleigh. I set up my "studio" while Presleigh was sleeping so I could do a photoshoot. Blaire was my quinee pig with some new lighting.
