Three years ago, today, we promised to walk beside each other, hand in hand through life. We promised to always love, laugh, and share this journey together. Three years later, and after a year and a half of trying to build our family, we are excited to happily announce our soon-to-be tiny addition.

Mother’s Day, 2011, was one of the best moments we have shared as a married couple. Announcing that we are expecting our first baby to our parents, after years of prayers, doctors visits, and not knowing if we could get pregnant at all, was one of the greatest joys we have experienced. We found out that we were expecting the week before mothers day on Cinco De Mayo…

Onnnnnn a side note, I can’t lie- I took the test (because I wanted a Margarita and was playing it safe) and was so shocked to see a positive sign I called Joel and asked him to come home immediately. He was, of course, running an errand for me and was at the store- so naturally I just blurted it out….over the phone. I know,….but I couldn’t keep it in. So, Joel definitely found out while standing in front of the toothpaste at the grocery store- so us…

As soon as we found out we asked our dear friend Amy, from The Wedding Chicks and On To Baby, to make us a Custom Onsie for our moms to open on Mother’s Day. She adorably placed “Coming Soon – 2012″, and joyful, and thankful, tears were had.

We find out the sex of the baby in two weeks, and could not be more excited, blessed, or emotional (okay, maybe that’s just me), than we are.

Thank you to all of our friends and family for all of the prayers and well wishes over the last year and half. Love you all….

With Love -
