Our First House!


We are in the midst of buying our first home! We are both so excited. It is bittersweet for sure, because if Zoe were alive, I am sure we wouldn't be trying to move while I am 34 weeks pregnant. But, I am looking at it from a "new start" perspective. Now we have our very own home to raise our family, and bring our next little one home to from the hospital. Zoe would want this for us. This makes me very happy in our choice to cremate Zoe. I am so glad we can take her with us. We have discussed burying her, but we concluded we made the best choice for us. At least at this point in our lives. Anyway...I haven't posted a picture of the house yet because I don't want to jinx it or anything...but that is a bit absurd! :-) So here it is, a picture of our house! We are cautiously excited (we will feel better March 31st! We tend to attacked bad luck). We are closing on March 31st and Moving April 11th. We were going to move April 3rd, but this way we can take our time, paint and clean and do all the fun homeowner things! I already have plans in the works for a memorial garden for Zoe. Of course I will have to get a butterfly bush, since she is my little butterfly. (or as my mom and cousin Erica say, Zoefly! How cute!) Well, I will keep you updated!

My Beta

So...my level today was 108!!! The nurse said that was a perfect, healthy number...not too high, not too low. Chances are good we have one little charm in there. Which is PERFECT. We won't know for sure until our u/s...but I have been thinking it's one...and a boy. I feel really connected to a little boy, and awhile ago, Zoe came to me in a dream and said we were going to get pregnant with one baby, a little boy, and things were going to be fine. :-) Sweet little baby of mine...comforting her momma even in spirit. It's strange to be pregnant right now...It doesn't feel real quite yet. It does, but it doesn't. I feel really secure about this pregnancy...almost at peace. I feel deep in my heart we are going to bring home a living baby. It's will be strange to be a mother of 2, one in spirit and one here on Earth. I love Zoelle so deeply, and miss her with each breath I take. I wish she was here to share in the joy of this new life. At the same time, the new life ...

Testing, testing,...1...2...3

So I couldn't resist!!! I tried! Yesterday morning I woke up at 4:30 with the urge! The urge to hopefully break our BFN streak and prove to be pregnant. Well, into the bathroom I went, gingerly tip-toeing across the hardwood, attempting to avoid waking up Tim. I slowing opened the home pregnancy test package, praying that what I have been expecting was true. There I was, starring at the test...waiting for the line to arrive (Where else to go during the wee hours of the morning...I was trying not to wake up Tim, or the pups downstairs!). Then it appeared, like a magic trick right before my very own eyes! The faintest of faint pink line. It was so faint, I thought for sure it wasn't real. I bursted back into the bedroom "Tim...Tim...are yo awake?" In reply "Kate, it's 4:30 in the morning, what the heck are you doing up?" "I just took a pregnancy test, there are TWO LINES!" Tim's first reply was "why are you testing already and why at 4:...

Our Rainbow!!!!!

Amazing...simply amazing. I am soaking up every moment. I am so thankful for our little girl. So...introducing River Zoelle Mirth 8 pounds, 11 ounces and 22 inches long!!! Labor was long, hard yet amazingly wonderful. 12 hours of labor and just over 3 hours of pushing (these are the things the docs don't tell you can happen!!!) But we did it!!! Our rainbow is finally here safely in our arms.
