My age has always been a non-issue for me. Whenever I get asked how old am I, I don’t shy away from answering. I’m 33 and will turn 34 on September, for the record. With that fact, my husband and I have been vocal about hoping to have another child. (my body is ticking away from the “ideal” child bearing stage)
The hubby and I are praying that we will be able to conceive soon. I am already 33 years old and if it is God’s will for us to have another child, then it is going to happen. If it’s not, we’re okay with that too. But with that thought, we figured it is just wise to get ourselves checked if we are healthy enough. Especially so that I miscarried twice after I gave birth to Jed. After a few tests, I was cleared by my obstetrician. Now, it’s really up to us if we will move on to further tests to investigate what could have caused the blighted ovum and the miscarriage of both pregnancies I had in 2006 and 2007.
Yep, that’s right. No picture of me here. I’m taking the pictures. These were taken hours before I got discharged. I have been admitted a number of times in several hospitals and this is actually the first time I have encountered this kind of notice posted in every single room.

One might think while scratching his head in wonder, why is it that Jennie was so sure that she was gonna have a girl the time she was pregnant the second time? Was it just wishful thinking or there is really something behind the belief?
We said goodbye to Jem, June 23, 2006. We had a miscarriage, an early pregnancy failure. God knows how tough that was for both me and Jeff. Praise Him that His grace is sufficient for us to move on after the grieving. Read the rest of this entry »
I found out we were pregnant with our princess at 4 weeks,4 days AOG which was Sunday, May 7,2006! It was a surprise alright. Mixed emotions of loving her dearly already but was also anxious about a lot of things and how early the Lord has intended this little girl to come in our lives. Read the rest of this entry »
Today I spent most of my time at home finishing some stuff needed for Jed’s arrival. I’ve sealed off two out of the three windows of our home with screens to ward off mosquitos. I sure don’t want mosquitos sucking the blood off my baby. Read the rest of this entry »
I’m now 80% on the way to giving birth to our little angel! 52 days to go, and as the days pass I can’t believe I’m getting closer to the big day. Tomorrow, Jeff and I will attend our first childbirth class with Chiqui Hahn. May the Lord use that class for us to know what to anticipate and gain confidence on what we should expect on the big day. Read the rest of this entry »
Jed is from the name Jedidiah, my Papa came upon that name during one of his devotions and he knew it was the name that I will have. The same name was given to Solomon which means “The Beloved of the Lord”. Papa and Mama both wanted a second name and they loved the name Zachary which means “The Lord remembered.” Read the rest of this entry »
