The past few weeks, since our positive pregnancy test, we’ve been overjoyed with the thought of having another baby. There are a number of fears too, but none that God can’t conquer and guide us through. We are so excited about the opportunity to raise another child in His likeness, hopefully showing God’s unwavering love everyday to both of our children. We have been praying for our new baby since before day one! Even Rock prays for his little sibling every day when we pray during meals and in the car with Daddy on the way to daycare. Phil always asks God to be with “mommy,” “daddy,” “Rock” (and asks Rock to repeat each of those names) and then Rock adds “Baby!” to the end without any prompting. We even have one of his prayers on video, which we may send out to family as our announcement of baby #2!
Rock is so intrigued and entertained by babies right now too. I don’t know if he understands what a baby is yet, but he always points them out when he sees them and a new baby even started at his daycare last week. That should be a great learning experience for him before his new brother or sister arrives in October.
We are praying for a heartbeat at our first doctor appointment this Thursday! I’ll be nearly 8 weeks pregnant and we will be having our first ultrasound and appointment! We’ve been anxiously counting down the days for this appointment when we get to see our new baby for the first time. The baby is about the size of a blueberry right now (.51 inches).
Lord, please be with our growing baby. Please keep him or her developing perfectly according to your will and plan. We love you Lord and thank you for the blessings you’ve given us!
