It's been a bumpy road but we made it!!!

For those of you who don't already know Jaime and I are excited to announce...We're EXPECTING!!! After 2 years of trying and many obstacles along the way our prayers have FINALLY been answered...our little miracle is due July 2, 2010. We are 14 weeks pregnant and starting our 2nd trimester today. We are SOOOO excited to have made it this far! It's been a loooong time coming and we are so happy for this moment to finally happen! Since they say the chance of miscarriage drops drastically in the 2nd trimester Jaime & I feel like we can finally exhale and enjoy every second of this pregnancy. Because of our history we were a little hesitant to tell anyone. We first told our parents after our 1st prenatal appt & waited til we were about 8 weeks to tell the rest of our family and close friends. Now that we made it past the first trimester we're telling EVERYONE! heehee!!!

Sometimes I still catch myself thinking is this really happening? Am I really pregnant!? It seems so surreal. I've always dreamed of this moment and it's finally happening! I can't even express how truly grateful we are and we owe it all to God. He has definitely tested us in so many ways and to know we've made it this far is incredible! Without him none of this would be possible. I must admit my faith as well as Jaime's has definitely grown in the past 2 years and we feel so blessed to be where we are in our lives. Having this baby is just the icing on the cake. We can't wait to meet our little bambino or bambina! Hmmm...I wonder what we'll be having. I guess we'll find out in about 6 weeks! Either way Jaime and I will be happy. We're just praying for a healthy baby. Here are a few pics we've received along the way. Our little peanut is definitely growing and my stomach is proof of that one! hahaha!!!!
