BET YOU DIDN'T SEE THIS COMING!!!

Well, I have decided to go ahead and write about what is happening in our lives since most of you are close friends and our family. As you know we had our plan and have delt with what the Lord puts in front of us. We have been so blessed in our 16 years of Marriage - yes we cound the struggles and trials as blessings also because they make us who we are today. Aaron and I have delt with our share of heart aches when it comes to Family (children). We were married for 8 years before we were so greatly blessed with Cassie who is now 8 1/2 years old. We love her dearly and are so eternally grateful for the wonderful spirit that she brings into our home. We were told with my last surgery that this was it for us. We have delt with it and have had many struggles over the last 8 years that our family was complete. We were making changes and scheduling surgeries due to endometriosis, etc. We were OK with things. Then over the last month I have felt CRAPPY and it just continually got worse. Well I have had many months like this and I was bracing myself for the pain and thinking I just can't wait till the surgery for all this to be done and overwith. Well the Lord saw fit another plan and we were taken by COMPLETE SURPRISE AND DISBELIEF. Last week we found out that we have been blessed with the opportunity to have another BABY!!!! Yes you heard me right. It has been confirmed and we had an Ultrasound today and heard the Babies heart beat. I am 8 weeks. So far so good. We told Cassie tonight because we couldn't keep why Mom was feeling so sick all the time away. She is so excited and just beamed with joy. Aaron and I were very nervous and we still are cautious because so many things can happen. But we are truly blessed and excited for this miracle. 8 years later!!!! WOW. Anyway so far the due date is March 27th which is my Grandpa Myers' Birthday!!!! But my doctor is wonderful and she stated that she won't let me go that far!!! She will enduce because of complications I had with Cassie they don't want to risk it with my history and all. They will be keeping a close eye on me and for that I am thankful that the Lord guided me to a wonderful new Doctor that is really up and on top of things. Anyway - That is what's going on in our lives!!! I will post pics of Cassie and things we did this summer (Moab 20 miles in hiking) it really was a lot of fun. The 20 miles was done over 3 days!!!
