Hey world. I was going to do The Girl Behind The Blog video thing. But I'm pooped. Tired. Wore out, at 12:51 in the afternoon. Truth is, I've been worn out for a while. You may have noticed (although you probably did not because you have a life and all sorts of your own things going on) that I have been sort of absent. Let me assure you, it's not you, it's me.
On top of being pooped, I've also been harboring a secret, which is sort of linked to the whole exhausted thing. But the secret is secret no longer.
Hello world, please meet baby Mags:
We're still early on in this (unplanned, because it seems everyone wonders that) process (about 8-9 weeks). I know it's risky to share at this point, as things are still so tenuous. I say, life is tenuous. I've had both friends and family lose a baby, and I know that it happens. However, this, this life, this pregnancy, is happening right now, and I'm going to choose to focus on that, rather than the "what ifs". All the same, if you find yourself with a spare moment and would like to say a prayer for me & baby Mags (and please, for my dear husband who is in for one heck of a ride), don't hold back!
Much love & napping,
TFW
Oh Mariah, what wonderful news. I will definitely be praying for all 3 of you. What a fabulous blessing!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Malisa!!
DeleteCONGRATS! Oh my gosh, how exciting! I'm seriously over here getting really excited and smiling for you right now. I'll be praying for you three!
ReplyDeleteAre you jumping? Maybe it's your picture, but I picture you jumping just a little bit, too :) Thanks dear!
DeleteAw congratulations! :) That is some very exciting news.
ReplyDeleteCongrats! And you are brave, we never told anyone until 12 weeks. 3 of our 4 started as twins, only known from these early u/s. I was heartbroken when I found out we lost the first twin and admittedly relieved when baby #3 was no longer 3 and 4. Good luck, take care of yourself, esp for the next few weeks!! And Congrats again!!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea that such a thing was common! I think we had some MIL's pulling for twins, but I'm pretty sure one will be quite enough for us to handle at this point. Thanks for the sweet wishes!
DeleteOMGoodness! I've been wondering where you are. You're excused, LOL! CONGRATULATIONS !!!! Praying for a happy & healthy 9 months for you and baby! Congrats !!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the prayers! I don't know why, buy your comments got labeled as spam, so I'm only getting to see them now :) Thanks for "spamming" me with all this encouragement!

DeleteI was soooooooooooooo tired with my first pregnancy! David seriously got annoyed at all my sleeping. I actually DID notice you've hardly been around but I hadn't gotten around to complaining about it yet =) you are in for one AWESOME ride!!!
ReplyDeleteD has mentioned that I was "a lot more fun before [I] was pregnant". I shot back that I FELT a lot more fun before I was pregnant, too :) Glad you didn't miss me too bad!
