Dinner tonight

I am posting this recipe so that it will be easier to find next time I want it.  We have tried this many times and it is delicious.  My only addition to the recipe as it is written is to add chopped grilled chicken.

Enjoy!  I know we will.

That's right folks;  Spike is a little GIRL!!!!

Big thanks to Grandma H for the perfect little onesie for our little one.  We are so excited for her to wear it in a few months.

A little peek

One of the perks of working in an OBGYN office while pregnant is that occasionally you get to go in an empty room and just listen to the baby's heartbeat at lunch or buddy up with the ultrasound tech and take a peek at what is happening on the inside.
I listen to Spike's (the name we are calling our baby right now) heart beat at least once a week but up till now I have only taken advantage of the ultrasound peeks one other time before today; and that was when I was only 9 weeks along.
Today at 17 weeks we took another quick peek.  No, we did not take any more then 3-4 minutes and no, we did not find out the gender.  We will do that in a few weeks when Nathan can be there as well.

Here is a preview of what we will see in more detail in a few weeks!  

Enjoy.

Sorry it has been so long....

Nathan and I have been a bit preoccupied the last few months but we are finally ready to share our wonderful news.

16 weeks

I am four months pregnant.  With a little help from my wonderful doctor and boss, Dr. Vered and a whole lot of hope, faith, and patience, we will be welcoming baby 'Spike' (the name we are calling our baby right now) into our family in December of this year.  

It is truly a miracle and we are still hopeful that adoption will be part of our future.

Until then, we are happy to share this journey we are currently on with all of you who have supported our adoption goals for so long.  Thank you for your support and your prayers.  We know that without you all of you, none of this, miracle pregnancy or adoption would be possible.  

Here is a video of us telling my parents on their birthdays that they would finally be grandparents.

Happy Happy Friday!1!
