CONGRATS on your pregnancy. I am also expecting, but due the first week of May. I have not gone public yet. We were told we would never have a bio baby, so this little guy or gal -who we have nicknamed tadpole is our miracle baby. We also have a beautiful daughter, Emeline, (almost 20 months) who we adopted from Guatemala. She is such a gift from God. I am thrilled she is going to get to be a big sister. I am still a bit bonkers and am ready to be out of the first trimester, so I can spill the beans to our family and friends. Anyway, I have been praying for you, and am so happy for you. I am looking forward to watching you little "Tiny" grow!
