Today I want to share with you all that we are pregnant again. We just returned from our 12-week ultrasound; everything looks good and we are shooting for a January 9 due date.
This is something that we’re definitely excited about, although it does carry with it a ton of emotions after losing our boys halfway through our last pregnancy. I was hit with it today during the ultrasound as we saw a little girl-boy moving around, squirming, waving at us and just generally being super-cute. When we saw the little hand waving at us, all I could think of was sitting there in the room at Kaiser Walnut Creek, holding a little hand that was only 7 weeks older than this little boy-girl. I KNOW how freakin’ cute that little hand is, because I’ve held not one, but two little hands just like that.
It’s an interesting thing to be sitting there in a moment of joy but also still be on a journey of grief.
Anyway – I don’t want to get all melancholy on you. We are excited, and this has been a deep joy for us the past three months. We’re glad to be able to share this news with family, friends and church-folk now and we invite you to join in this celebration with us.
CONGRATS!
Thank you, Lord!
I’m so pleased for you. Praying extra hard that all is and will continue to be well.
Happy tears for you and Sarah!
Congratulations on this exciting announcement. Very excited for you two to be able to have the joy of life and a new baby WC!
Wonderful news – Congrats!
Congratulations on this new blessing in your lives. While s/he will never replace the two babies you should still have with you, hopefully it can be a bright future to look forward to. I’ve heard a baby born after the death of another sometimes referred to as a “Rainbow Baby”- a reminder that beauty can sometimes follow a storm. Congratulations to you and Sarah!
Congratulations to you and Sarah, Adam! Know that all three of you are in a lot of people’s thoughts and prayers…good and positive vibes sent your way 😉
Very excited for you and very HOPEFUL for you both. Congratulations 🙂
Wow bro. Super cool man.
We just had our little one after a miscarriage and I can say that looking back, I’m really glad the miscarriage happened.
Super stoked for you guys…
Jonathon, but you’re going to have to fill me in a bit more as to how you can say you’re “really glad the miscarriage happened.”
Wish you’d visit our friends’ (Chris and Sarah Wilkerson) blog…Chris and Sarah had a beautiful little boy named Noah, who only lived four days in 2009. Last October, they had Aaron…healthy, wealthy and wise–all’s well. Aaron’s now crawling and saying, “Mama!” The journey has been long, but life is definitely on the upswing again.

My husband and I lost two children in 1982 and 1984–Elizabeth, who died of SIDS and Ryan, who was stillborn. In 1987, we had our daughter Emily who’s at Princeton Theological Seminary starting her third year!
