After 8 long years & 5 miscarriages an answer to our prayers was granted. In October 2010 I found out that I was pregnant....again. Many didn't know that I was pregnant and miscarried on September 7th, 2010. The reason that day sticks out in my mind is because that day was so bitter sweet. September 7th is also Bryleigh's birthday. It was a day to celebrate the amazing daughter that Bryleigh is and how thankful that we are to have her as part of our family. But that same day tears flowed as I knew that once again I has lost a little spirit that I had longed for but didn't know how he or she would ever make it to our family. Tyler was out of town training for work and having to break the news to Bryleigh was rough to say the least. I had always known that Bryleigh was never meant to be an only child and Bryleigh has always said that she didn't want to be an only child. To Bryleigh a "family" meant having brothers and sisters. By mid October 2010 I discovered that I was pregnant again. What are the chances of that I would both have a miscarriage and get pregnant in the same month? Shock and fear set in instantly. I kept on waiting for something to go wrong. I waited, waited, and waited. Other than being really hungry and in pain, I passed my dreaded 8 week mark. I had to wait to go to the doctor because Tyler had just started a new job and we were waiting for the insurance to begin. On Feb. 3, 2011 I was able to go the doctor and admittedly I was a basket case. I needed to know that everything was okay. I basically demanded to have an ultra sound that day. I don't know if me being a crazy pregnant woman scared them, but I got to have my ultra sound done that same day as well. This day tears flowed. This time they were tears of joy. We were able to see Miss Grace and was told that everything looked great. What a blessing!!! One thing that stood out in the ultra sound...other than the fact that they said we were having a girl....well let's just say she had the feet. The Beauchat feet. Long, flat, and skinny. Thank you Tyler. That is two for two. Big feet or not...we loved her instantly.
