We have been looking around for baby cribs recently just to get an idea of what we wanted. We looked at round cribs, regular cribs, and cribs of all colors. Yesterday we came across a canopy crib. We discussed how much we both liked it. We talked it over with my mom and today she starting calling around to see if she could find this canopy crib.
It was discontinued everywhere!!!
My first thought was, "OK, I guess this means the thousand dollar sleigh crib I want is the one for us after all." lol (I wish) However, when we got home Greg called a couple more places and somewhere in California God had this crib, the last one of its kind, waiting for baby Foster. :)
We were not planning on spending the money at this time, nor were we planning on buying a crib just yet, but when timing is right, it's right. When you know God is by your side and it's "your time" you go with it. So we did.
Our first big purchase for baby Foster should be here before the end of the week!!

Where to begin. . .
It has been so long since my last blog, I don't even know where to begin. Everything has changed since my last blog. I don't really know what else to do other than to come out and say it. I am pregnant! Not a little bit pregnancy, but 1 week away from completing my first trimester! It is so unreal.
As you know with MTHFR I can't just go with the flow, and not try, or not worry about it. Shots have to be started on a certain day to even give myself a chance.The month of April came, and went. I never thought anything about becoming pregnant, being pregnant, or even wanting to be pregnant. On a Friday, I got sick at school. It progressively got worse throughout the day. It was weird. I thought it was allergies at first, but it wasn't. I came home and got in the bed for the rest of the night. The next morning, I took a test and it was positive. Great news! The even greater news was I started the shots two weeks before "just in case." God told me just to do them, so I did. But I NEVER thought I was pregnant.
Since then I have had 4 blood tests, two sonograms, and a lot of nausea. I don't like that feeling, but I love that am feeling something. The baby's heart beat is very strong and very fast (that means its a girl if you believe in old wives tails). However, we really don't care what our little blessing is, as long as she/he is healthy and happy. We will know the sex of our baby in 8 weeks!
I can't thank those of you who have been through our losses with us, prayed for us, constantly believed and supported us through this whole thing. I will continue to keep you posted about our very special miracle.
By the way, we set up an email address for the baby and have already sent a few emails. We plan on reading them to him/her at night before bedtime when she is old enough to understand them, and then giving her the password and information when she/he graduates so they will always know how much we love and support them, and always have. If you would also like to send an email, now or at anytime please do. The more the merrier!
