Sweet Baby #3

Yep, that's right, baby Buck #3 is on the way! Ryan and I are just over the moon and we are praising God for this precious miracle!

We had tried for over two years for this baby, with one of those years filled with fertility drugs. I honestly had many, many days where I just thought that it wasn't going to happen; that God was closing this door. But now I can look back and see that God was just saying "wait". God's timing is ALWAYS perfect, even when at the time I don't understand it.

I found out I was pregnant on January 26th and we had our first OB appointment on February 12th. I may have spilled the beans to a few very close friends, but we kept it a secret from everyone else. We really wanted to see that tiny heartbeat before we told the world! I didn't think I would, but when the doctor got the picture on the screen and she said everything looked perfect, I just lost it. I was crying and couldn't stop. We had waited so long to see that sweet beating heart, so it was an incredible moment. 

After the appointment, we picked up the kids from school and told them in the car. Their reactions were hilarious!! If I figure out how to get the video uploaded, I'll put it on here!

All four of us are overjoyed and cannot stop talking about this baby! We look forward to finding out the gender, sharing the name, and preparing for life with three kids in the months to come!
