My Milestones & Events


On August 11, 2013 at 19 weeks 4 days pregnant
Announced Baby's Gender to Family
We had a gender reveal party at our home. Our friend, Megan, made the cake with the inside dyed blue. When we cut into the cake, everyone was super surprised and happy, as this gives us a girl and a boy. It was a chaotic day, but it was a nice time with family and friends.

Found Out Baby's Gender
We had our ultrasound with our daughter present, but didn't see the gender and the nurse didn't tell us. We handed the pic to a neighbor who got balloons and put them into my daughter's toy box which was made by her grandfather. We opened it as she took photos and saw our wonderful blue balloons.

Told the rest of our family and friends
We told our close friends and family much earlier, wanting them to say some extra prayers for us. But we announced our pregnancy to the fb world via a new cover photo showing my hubby's flip flops, mine, our daughter's and then under the non-gender specific ones, we put baby S. due 1/1/14. It shocked a lot of people since I haven't been very open about our struggle to conceive with very many people.

First Prenatal Appointment
Our first appointment back at the ob/gyn. The nurse that has been through all the mc's with me was there and she gave me a big hug. My doctor came in with a big smile and congratulations, knowing how hard it was for us to conceive this time. Love that they were genuinely happy.

First Ultrasound
We didn't see much at this ultrasound as the baby was so small. However, we saw that little flicker of a heartbeat and our fears were eased immensely.

Told our daughter we were having a baby
We wanted to wait until we had our first ultrasound and saw the heartbeat to tell our daughter. We showed her the picture and gave her a big sister shirt. She was so excited!!!

First Positive Pregnancy Test
Got up early to get our daughter ready for school and took a test before waking her up. My husband couldn't believe it after 18 months of trying, but a digital test the next day confirmed the wonderful news.
