Continuing from the last post, the unexpected, unplanned, unbelievable happened. You got it, Mommy became pregnant, YIPEE!!!! I never thought a thing about missing a period and being late again..... Did not cross my mind.... I was SO BUSY with the adoption process! SO, I took THREE pregnancy tests yes 3! and still went to my OB saying, give me another test, it cannot be true. I was incredible happy. jarrett could not believe it either, he said over and over Are you sure???? So we had a great pregnancy and we were all so happy, Gage was excited to be a big brother, and needless to say confused about why we were adopting????? Grayson was due March 30th 2007. He arrived 6 weeks early. My amniotic fluid began to leak on a Friday evening. We went on to the hospital where we planned to have Grayson, but my OB sent me by ambulance to a hospital with a NICU since Grayson's lungs may not have been fully developed. I had to be induced, Sat morning Feb 17th. Grayson came along at 6lbs 5 oz, as healthy as he could be. He had a huge SHOCK of black hair, so much short little fuzz, just beautiful!!!! Jarrett and I were so surprised about the hair! Daddy and Gage did a lit of running to get things ready while Grayson and I prepared to come home. Daddy had to go out to get a car seat/stroller and a few other small items. Fortunately I had a baby shower at work the Friday before Grayson was born. So we were stocked with some things from my generous co workers. We had another shower planned for Sunday Feb 18th, but Grayson arrived the day before! My mom and sister came to the house to get Grayson's bed made and to wash his new clothes and be sure the kitchen was stocked. Our precious dear friends Marilyn and Tom were sure that we had meals ready to heat and eat.
We came home safely, warm and happy. Thanks be to God, for that, and for lots of help, from family, friends, church!
