Brayden's Big News!


"There's a baby in mommy's belly!"- Brayden A. Sanders 3yrs old
We have been blessed with a child on the way due December 2, 2010. Due to being a repeat c-section, the baby will come a week early which falls right on Thanksgiving this year 11/25/10. So...give or take a day and that should be when our new arrival is here. We are all so very excited , especially Brayden. He loves to look on babycenter.com with me and see how big the baby is getting each week. He even got to see the baby at one of my ultra sounds. He is going to be such a wonderful big brother!
We found out by a fluke of taking a test just because ( with no expectation of being pregnant) on March 22. What a nice surprise it was to see two lines on the test..even though I had to double check the box, because i thought that that meant negitive. What a nice surprize to find out the oppisite.
April second we had a wonderful day at the Orlando temple with my parents and my sister Amy and brother in law Chad. It was such a special day for our family ... so we thought it the perfect time to shar ethe news with them in there. The spirit was so strong and I was very emotional. Later that day we called the rest of our siblings and Faron's parents and spread our news and joy with them. We also officially told Brayden that night and the above quote was his reply. He is just so excited. Easter was a few days later and we went to Jacksonville and stayed the night and had a wonderful time sharing our excitment with my relatives.
Brayden at a wonderful Easter and we tried to watch and enjoy as much as Conference as we could. It was so fun having all my siblings together at once. Amy and patrick came into town with their families and it was so nice to be with one another. I love me neices and my nephew and it was so fun watching them all together.
I will post pictures from that week as we had a lot to celebrate. We celebrated my neice Annie's 1st birthday ( which turned out so cute!) right before Amy and the crew flew back to kansas! Thanks for sharing her day with us guys!
I will try to keep this thing posted and up to date more often. I have an ultra sound the first week of june and I'll be 15weeks, and there is a chance if the baby cooperates that we could get an idea of what the sex of the baby is.. especially if it's another boy. So, just another thing to look forward to!
