T. #3 Is on the WAY!!!!!


We are Pregnant and having our 3rd Baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have known for awhile now but wanted to wait before we told all of the family before I shouted from the Roof Tops!!!! We are so excited and feel So Blessed that the Lord has given us another child!!!! For all of you out there wondering if this was planned, It Was- By the Lord!!!! Michael and I had talked about trying but weren't taking it too seriously until July plus we really thought it would take us awhile, considering our past with trying. BUT the Lord had other plans and I was shocked when I discovered it, but am Thrilled Now and wouldn't have wanted it any other way!!!!!!!!!
Trying to figure out a cool way to tell Michael was the hardest, because with Gavyn I had the best way and it was SO PERFECT! Well so the Story goes.....
I had discovered I was way late about a week before Father's day and thought, well wouldn't it be cool to find out on Father's Day that you were a new Father?!... I waited til Saturday to take 2 tests and then a third on Sunday EARLY. I figured if I would have taken them earlier in the week, and they were positive I would not have been able to keep my mouth shut. So I waited patiently, and Low and Behold they were all Three VERY POSITIVE with no mistake :) So I made the boys t-shirts that read "Happy Father's Day" on the Front and on the backs, Gav's read," Big Brother 1" and Joshy's read," Big Brother 2." We had breakfast waiting for Michael Sunday Morning, and the boys were wearing their t-shirts I had made them. Well, Michael Loved the shirts but didn't exactly get my point.... lol! So thank goodness I had a backup plan even though I thought my original plan was genius! I had Gavyn give him a Father's day present with a Indiana Jones card that said, "To a father who can handle any situation," and when you opened it up it said," hope you can handle what comes next..." Then, Michael opened up the present which had the three positive tests inside! He acted like he had just found out he had won a million dollars- he was THAT EXCITED! I have to say with both Gavyn and this one, Michael's reactions always give me an immediate peace about the whole thing. With both of them I was so nervous when I found out and something about the excitement on your husbands face when he finds out, puts all the nerves to ease! He has been PERFECT since the moment I told him, treating me like a Queen and already loving this baby so much! I am So Blessed to have him as the Father of my children and he said, "that was by far the greatest gift I could have given him on father's day." So were evenly blessed by this news and excited about the future!
Here are the boys on Father's Day!
This was taken before Michael figured it out....
This was after....
Michael & Gavyn congratgulating each other... :)
I have to say also, Gavyn is SO cute about this whole thing. Every morning he lifts my shirt up and kisses my belly and says "I love you baby!" It is So precious! And I have been SO sick with this pregnancy like I was with Gavyn's, but every time I throw up Gavyn is right there afterward taking care of me and baby he says. Today was our 1st appt. and we got to see the baby and take a picture home to show Gavyn; when he saw the picture he pointed at the baby, looked at me and said with big eyes "Is that my baby?" I said yes and he wanted to carry that picture around, he was so proud of it!!!! Some days he says he wants a sister and other days he wants another Joshua! Today when he looked at the picture and we asked him what he wanted and what would he name the new baby he said," he wanted a brother and to name him Joshua." LOL!
These next 7 months should be interesting.......... :)
