My boys

I am really, really bad at blogging. I am the worst ever, and I am working on it because I want to stay up to date so that all my family can see all the goings on in our lives. So, my new goal is to update this blog monthly from now on. You can all hold me to it and bother me when I don't (whoever actually checks this).

Here are some relatively new pictures of things that are going on at the Ambrose home:




This was me about two weeks ago, at 25 weeks.






This is Hayden (Yes, we've officially decided on Hayden) at 20 weeks.




About a week ago I had an experience that really touched my heart. It wasn't anything too spectacular, it was just one of those 'quiet' moments we get from time to time. I wanted to share it with you all.

Kyle and I had settled into the relaxation phase of our night by watching some T.V. Almost each night, Kyle puts his head in my lap and I run my fingers through Kyle's hair until he falls asleep.

Well, Kyle fell asleep in my lap as usual but for the first time I was able to see Hayden's kicks from outside my tummy. There I was; Kyle's face touching my huge tummy and baby Hayden saying 'hello' with his kicks. I watched silently for a few minutes, as the realization hit me that this was the first time that I had really stopped to think about the fact that I had both my boys with me. It could have been the hormones taking over, but I couldn't help the tears welling up in my eyes for my hubby and our little angel that we are being entrusted with very soon.

Today, I am grateful to a Heavenly Father that loves me enough to give me such beautiful blessings. I am not a mother yet, but I look forward to the many experiences that it will bring me, and all the other 'quiet' moments that will come.

Until next month!
