Feeling the love!!

Who am I to argue with Winnie the Pooh?  We sure felt the love yesterday as we celebrated with our families and friends for our baby shower.  The amount of love and encouragement was overwhelming.  It was so great to see everyone, even if we didn't get to sit down and visit too long.  Baby Andrew is definitely a blessed boy already.  Who am I kidding, this little guy has been blessed and prayed from the beginning.  With each kick and twist, I am reminded of the amazing gift that we have been given and how loved he is already.  There will be pictures coming from the festivities, but I wanted to make sure and share just how thankful we are for everyone!  Thank you cards have been ordered, let's see how long it takes for me to finish them.   

This verse could be tweaked for us, "For this child, WE have all prayed..."  It's really overwhelming to think about how much support, prayers, and love have taken place for our little guy, starting before he was even conceived.  Last week was National Infertility Awareness Week, so I spent a lot of time thinking about our journey and everything that has brought us this fear.  It's been a long and bumpy road, something that I wouldn't wish on anyone but looking back I can say I am thankful for our infertility because it has brought us closer together, taught us a lot about faith, hope, and loss, and made us appreciate every second of this pregnancy.  
We are going to the doctor every two weeks now for what have been pretty quick visits.  This Tuesday marks 33 weeks, it's crazy how the weeks seem to be flying by and yet going slowly. The last student day is May 23, which will be 36 weeks...I keep telling baby boy that he has to hold tight until then.  I may be waddling around preschool graduation, but I want to be there to celebrate with my families and say good bye to those going to kindergarten.
Please pray for us as we enter the last month of the school year, which is always crazy so I'm sure it will be quite an adventure as I get bigger every day!  Keep praying for Andrew to stay put and keep growing.
We are so thankful for everyone's love and support, there will never be enough words to express it!  Have a fabulous week!
Love,
Sarah & Joe
