6 weeks

Well I am now 6 weeks pregnant. I feel great other than being a little more tired than usual. For Jared and I both it is still very very surreal. We are both wondering when the reality of this is going to hit us. Dont get me wrong we are thrilled, just still in shock I guess. Grant is beyond thrilled and has already started talking to my tummy. It is the cutest thing ever, I cant wait until he can feel her kicking! I know that my babies will have an anamazing bond just like me and my little brother.
Most of you know that we have been trying for 5 years. Through this whole "trying for 5 years" proccess it has been so hard for me. I went through periods of doubting my ability as a woman and doubting my faith in God. I had many other doubts, regrets and "what-ifs" but through everything my amazing husband always believed. He believed in me, he beleived in God's plan, he beleived that everything was going to be fine and that when the time was right God would send our very special little princess to us. He has truly been my rock. And I love him even more for never giving up on this dream of expanding our family(even though I did a couple times) I honestly feel in my heart that this baby will be the princess we have been waiting for. So from now until we know for sure the sex, I am going to call our baby a her. (Jared and Grant and I already refer to her by her name) Here is what she looks like this week. Her eyes, ears, mouth, and nose are beginning to develope. Along with her intestines, pituitary gland, brain, muscles, and bones. Her heart has started to beat and blood is coursing through her tiny body. She is about 1/4 inch long.

I heard there's a $30 gender test online, one of my neighbors tried it.
