And The Change Continues

Things just keep changing for us.  Our last trip to Ohio proved to be productive in more ways than one.
First, I sat down with our lawyer to discuss all of the craziness going on with Aubrie.  From what we have been hearing from several friends and acquaintances back home, Christin and Rayne have allegedly been on some pretty hardcore drugs.  We're terrified for Aubrie. Thankfully, our lawyer is amazing, and once we gather up all of the necessary evidence, paperwork, and legal fees, she is going to file a petition for custody.  I'm ready for this process to be over with.  I miss our sunshine.

The next set of news came after we returned from Ohio.  We're pregnant again.  We had been trying for a little while, but stopped once I found out I was changing jobs.  Go figure that is when we would end up succeeding.  The timing lines up perfectly with our trip, so I'm about 98% certain that is when we conceived.  Anywho, this baby will be due in November.  For the most part I'm over the moon.  However, I can't help but have my concerns due to our previous miscarriage.
So far so good though.

This will be our last baby, and Alex's last shot for a boy.  I hope he gets what he wants, but my main concern is having a healthy baby regardless of gender.  I'm nervous about telling our family.  They have always been less than thrilled when it has came to us announcing previous pregancies.  I'm sure this one will be no different.
I'll be heading into the second trimester two weeks after mother's day, and that's when we plan on telling everyone.  Thankfully I live 600 miles away from them, so it'll be easy to keep to ourselves.  I've been looking up ways to make the announcement and I think I've settled on a couple of ideas.

I'm just not looking forward to the "Don't you know where babies come from?" and the "Are you going to tie your tubes now?" and the "Are you insane?" questions that I know we're going to hear.  It's really frustrating.  We're happy, and that's all that matters. 

 

I feel like God has led us here for a reason.  We're about to have our family complete and intact.  I know it in my heart.  I'm just ready for everything to be complete, and for all of the bad memories, and sad moments to be a distant memory.  I'm ready to see our Aubrie, I'm ready for this baby, and I'm ready to move into our future.  For once in my life I'm completely content.  I'm happy, I'm appreciative of every single person and thing in my life, and most importantly, I'm looking forward to my future. 

 

 

Thank you God, for all of our blessings.
