The end of September....we meet again!

One year ago, I remember everything so clearly....this is the week that we were suppose to hear our 2nd babies heartbeat and go on one of our usual beach trips. But this time a year ago things changed for us so quickly and it is now amazing for me to be able to reflect and see how far we have come and how happily we have grown!



This time last year, Brooks and I questioned whether or not we would even try to have another baby after the heartache we experienced during our sad September....but we had no idea we would be blessed within 8 short weeks with the answer, our 3rd pregnancy!

The end of this September is so much brighter than the last and we have woken up everyday for the past 9 weeks to this beautiful, smiling little girl, our Britan Rae!

Although we didn't understand then and we still don't know why our 2nd baby wasn't meant to be ours in this lifetime, we are still thankful for the lesson we learned from our pain, but more thankful for the blessings that had yet to come!
So today on this last day of September when last year we were so uncertain of everything around us and tears were the only thing that made sense.....we are so BLESSED AND THANKFUL....that this day, September 30th, now has a different, brighter meaning.....today is Britan's 2 month Birthday :)

Thank you to everyone that has followed this amazing adventure with us, we couldn't be any happier to say good bye to September any other way!!! LOVE, Brooks, Alysha, Bryson and our sweet, well worth the wait, Britan Rae :)
