I went through my memory box for our lost babies and I spent some time outside in our memorial garden. I looked at the ultrasound pictures for the new baby and after I post this, I will take out my Doppler and listen to Baby's precious heart beat.
Its so hard to be excited about all the wonderful milestones we've already gotten to have with this new baby without being sad that we never got to do those things with our first 2. We never got to see their little faces or hear their hearts beating.
I can't imagine that I will ever be able to have their due dates pass without acknowledging them in some way. No matter how little time we had with them, they were my babies and I will always love them.
In honor of all we lost and in recognition of the miracle I have growing inside me, I have decided to post some more pictures of Baby #3. I know that it can be hard to tell what's going on in these pictures so I hope the captions are helpful.

Hugs for you!!!
