Guess What?!

We're having a baby! (sigh) I've been wanting to post that for the past 3 weeks. At first we were determined that nobody would know until our mid-way ultrasound. Yeah right! Then we said we wouldn't tell anybody until we saw a heartbeat a couple months along. Obviously I'm not that patient. :) So in early March we're expecting a little bundle of joy. We absolutely covet your prayers as this is my sixth pregnancy and obviously have two children with us. On a side note...our girls do NOT know yet and we would like to wait until we see the heartbeat before telling them. Annie had too much of a broken heart from the last pregnancy. So please do not mention this to our girls if you see them. My next appointment is two weeks from today so Lord-willing we'll see that little flashing heartbeat and be able to share our excitement with our daughters.

Can anyone say goose bumps?! Or how about JUMP for joy?! I think it is good to grab as many people as possible to pray for this miricle growing inside of you. I will pray and I will NOT mention it to your girls.

Dear Heavenly Father,

We lift this bundle of a blessing to you. I pray that you would bring this pregnancy to full term. Please Be jose and laura's perfect peace. Keep them all in your hands and may many people commit to pray for the baby in her womb(Psalm 139). In Jesus name,
AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love,
Jannette

I'm saying it now, I think it's a boy... and you'll name him Samuel. Yes? No? Maybe? :) Lol... Oh, and he'll be born on Josiah's birthday--- March 2. :D weighing 8lbs even.
