Big News

We are excited to share the news that Ruthie will become a big sis this September! If everything continues to go well, our family will grow by one on or around September 3rd, 2011. The first trimester was difficult, a month of nausea and fatigue, but with each passing week, energy and appetite has returned (hooray)! We have already enjoyed an ultrasound, and again heard the heartbeat today via doppler at the regular monthly doc appointment. The reality is beginning to sink in, as we realize we have about 6 months to prepare for another life in our home and family! Please add us to your prayer list if you have not done so already!
