The hardest thing to hear...

So, it has been a long week for Kyle and I. On Tuesday I started to lose the baby, and on Wednesday we had an ultrasound. Dr. Boheen found that the baby hadn't grown at all since our last appointment, and things didn't look right. Its been really hard for us, because we were so excited about having this baby. I guess that my body was just trying to do what was best for the baby, because Dr. Boheen said that it was probably a chromosomal problem. She said that during cell division, some of the cells probably didn't divide right, so the baby couldn't develop normally. I guess this happens all the time, and it doesn't mean that there is anything wrong with us. Although it hurts, we understand that heavenly father doesn't make mistakes and this was supposed to happen. I think that we will definitely become stronger from this experience. We just hope that next time, everything is normal :)

Baby on the way!

I found out that a little baby was on the way on Kyle's 25th birthday- February 18th, 2008. I was so nervous all day to tell him the news! I bought him a birthday card that said "Happy Birthday, Dad!" He was so surprised, and we both started jumping up and down! We were going out to dinner with both of our families that night, so we made some cupcakes and decorated them with little babies, rattles, pacifiers, and other baby stuff. When I brought out the cupcakes, it took my mom a little while to catch on. Mary and Eddie both got it pretty quickly. My mom started crying, and Shelene was so excited! Both of our families can't wait for the new baby. It will be the first on both sides... well, unless little Baby Grampp beats us! Yes, we found out a few weeks later that Eddie and Mary are expecting also! Our due dates are only a few days apart. We just wish that Eddie and Mary still lived here, so that our babies could play together.
