Let the journey begin...

I'm officially announcing that we are beginning our journey for baby #2!!!

We are so extremely blessed to  have our amazing surrogate mother, Amanda, in our lives. She is a wonderful friend whom I many years ago and has offered to help us complete our family by giving us the gift of life. Over the past several years Amanda and I have been spending a lot of time together... we enjoy getting together for play dates and watching our kiddos play together. Our sons go to the same school & even share a class together for half of the day each day! Amanda is a beautiful person, inside & out and I can't say enough wonderful things about her!

Her husband, Randy, went to school with Rudy & myself. We were actually in the same 2nd grade class together & Rudy played little league baseball with him! Randy graduated with me in my class of '97 and Rudy graduated at the same school as us in 1996. So, we've known each other practically our entire life and we are so blessed that he has given his blessings for Amanda to help us create our family & he has been so supportive and I'm ever so thankful for him.

We are so extremely thankful God has placed such a wonderful couple in our lives to experience this journey with and bless us with a little miracle.. They will forever be family to us and I can't even begin to express how thankful I am for them. Please pray for us all as this journey begins... thanks to all of our friends and family for your support for us through this time..

Stay tuned for updates on our journey...
