About Us
- Jenn
- In God's timing, we learned we were expecting our first baby. We were thrilled beyond words to be expecting our Sweet Baby Tyler. In December of 2007, at 25 weeks, I went into premature labor, and Tyler was born on December 20, 2007. We had 6 amazing days to spend with our beautiful boy. We savored every moment, reading him stories in the NICU, including the Christmas story. Right then, he opened his eyes for the first time for his mommy and daddy...our best Christmas present ever. He went home to be with Jesus the next morning. We trust God with His plan, and rest in knowing that this is not the end of our story... and now, two years later, it turns out that it wasn't the end of our story. We are NOW thrilled to be expecting a baby girl, who is due January 9, 2010! If you are struggling, just know it is not over...this is not the end. Your story is still being written!

She is beautiful. So glad your (and mine, even though I only know you from this blog, I have prayed many prayers for you) prayers were answered. Our God is so good, all the time. Looking forward to the next post.
Congratulations Jenn (and Mike)! I am so happy for you... I have heard your story 'through the grapevine', but had not read your blog. You are a beautiful writer - on yours and Missy's site. I am so glad you are sharing your story of God's AMAZING Grace! Keep on!

YAH YAH YAH YAH!!! Congrats to you and Mike! She is soooo pretty!! What a great way to end one year and start another one!
I haven't checked your blog in a while so it was such a wonderful surprise to see that she finally arrived safe and sound. She is so beautiful! I lost my sweet Sophie at birth before you lost your sweet little boy and now I am due with number 3 in Feb! God works miracles! I healed more in the first minutes of Landry's(my now two year old) life than I did in the almost two years it took to get her here. Hearing her voice was like an angel singing and I know that you felt the same jubilation when you heard your sweet girl for the first time. Congrats to you both! I tear up thinking about someone else feeling those same feelings I did. A new day...a new chapter!
Alexis is so beautiful. You made it! You did it! She has such a special angel looking over her. Wishing you the very best in this special newborn time. I love how in your previous post that you said this was not bittersweet, but full circle. You are so right. You put something into words that I never could. Thank you for that.

I am soooo happy for you! What a sweet blessing! Looking forward to reading more about her!
Jenn -
I randomly came across your blog while skipping through blogs. I have read your entire blog while my sweet baby girl naps. Your family amazes me, your faith is totally awesome. I hope you don't mind a total stranger following along with you! Your baby girl is a year younger than mine, and our pregnancies sound like they were very identical. Many hugs to you as you love on your baby girl! ~ Stacy
Congratulations and what a beautiful blog. Your faith and courage is inspiring. You are all in my thoughts and prayers daily. Sissy sure does miss her little girl!
