We sure love all of our special grandparents!
Once again, please remember to pause the blog music....
Now that you've heard our good news... take a peek at our surprise night (last night) for the kids!!!
Aaron and I drove the kids to the cemetery and brought the computer. Aaron showed the kids this video of when we first heard Stephen's heart beat, then he showed them the video that was at the end of the home video above, of baby #4's heart beat. He asked them what the videos were of? ....AND their reply to both was "listening to Stephen's heartbeat." So Aaron said, nooooooo this video is from just the other day when we came to Pocatello. Then he told them, that this was another baby's heartbeat in Mommy's belly. He then told them that Stephen was going to be a big brother!!! They were SOOOOOOooooo excited!!!! Then we explained to them what that home video meant. They were super excited to share the news with all of their grandparents today! They kept our BIG secret all morning!!! I was super proud of them both. 
They jumped on me in pure excitement. Their smiles in this picture say a lot. They have been praying every single night for a healthy baby. They always remember Stephen and love to talk about him. They miss everything about him. One of the first things that Wesley said to me is.... that is why you've been sick. He told his aunt and uncle the other night, Guess what.... my mom throws up when she wakes up too early in the morning. Isn't that weird? I cleared my throat and tried not to laugh. Luckily they never caught on... too darn funny.
We stayed and talked about it a bit more and then got the kids some subway to take home! Then we ate some delicious chocolate and vanilla creme puffs that Daddy had made!!! Our family is so excited, anxious, nervous, and very positive about our exciting news!!! Our hearts ache for Stephen and will forever and ever. Our love for our new lil' "bun" is enormous! Please pray and continue to pray with us as we pray for baby Bowman. I can't help but wonder if Stephen is working with Heavenly Father to send this little miracle to us. And that is exactly what a child is.... a complete miracle--- each and every one of them. I love each of my miracles with all my heart..... and their Dad is purrrrty cool too!
