I am long overdue here for an update. We have just been so busy that I have not bothered sitting down and doing a post. We have been well. I am still dealing with dizziness and feeling as though I am going to pass out at times...but the doctors reassure me that I am fine. The kids and hubby are doing well. Today we got to see our baby on ultrasound. It was so very precious...truly amazing. We have decided on Adam Ryan for his name. I have intended on doing a post for quite some time but just have never sat down and took the time to write it.
When we found out at 14 weeks along that we were having our 5th son...I was truly overjoyed. My OB appt was scheduled at 6pm that evening. Well..it was nearly 7pm before they called me back. When the doc came in, I told him he wasnt supposed to be runnning late today because I really wanted him to take a look at baby today. He then said "Lets go". So to the other room we went where the ultrasound machine was. My doc spent a good 10-15 min looking at baby, and it became very obvious that we were having ppur 5th son. Such amazing shots.....so very clear. I left that day feeling so overjoyed and excited. I thought that if I found out we were having another boy that I may be a bit disappointed, but that was not the case. There was truly none at all. God is sooo amazing to bless us with 5 children, let alone 5 sons. And I truly feel that if I had the attitude of disappointment with another son...that "I" would be questioning what God KNOWS is perfect for our family. I am so very thankful that God knows what is best for our family. When people say things such as "oh I am sorry" or "oh darn...another boy"...it is a perfect chance for me to give God ALL the glory. Because I have shared with everyone...that we are so very excited...and praising the Lord because He knows what is best for our family. I have also shared with many how the Lord has worked in my heart. I often think that what if after..lets say our first two boys....I got an attittude and said I really want or only want a little girl after having two boys. The Lord very well could have thus decided to close my womb because I was not trusting what He knew was best. He could have said "Because you are not trusting me, I will no longer bless you with anymore children". Does that make any sense? It surely does to me and it is a humbling thought. God has been soooo good to us...and I am so very thankful and excited to meet this next blessing. I truly am amazed at the thought of having 5 sons!!
The ultrasound today went very well. Little Adam looked great and was kicking around like crazy. Everything looked normal and measured right near my due date. They estimated him weighing right around 12oz. So sweet too. One thankful momma. Thank you Lord!!
