Gummy :)

James and I saw gummy yesterday. "She" is doing GREAT! I was so amazed to see the baby moving around and everything. It really made my heart smile!

I think it's finally hit me.. I'm PREGNANT!!

Gummy's heart rate was 170 beautiful beats per minute!

Here "she" is.......

I have been following your blog & just reading ever since you lost your Maddie girl, a friend of mine posted a link on facebook asking for prayers for you. I was pregnant at the time and cried for you & your family. But after I had my daughter I stopped following you for awhile and just happened by your page a few days before you told allof us about you little Gummy & I thought to myself they deserve another beautiful baby, they are GREAT parents and when I saw your annoucment I literally squaled with excitment & cried watching your video. I am truly happy for you and James! You stay in my prayers :)

So happy for you... I too cried watching the video of you and James (and many of your videos). Sending you positive thoughts and love. I know Maddie is watching and smiling.

Jennifer said...

I wonder if Maddie picked this gummy out especially for you? I can see it now - Maddie walking up to this angel in Heaven and saying "Hey! I heard your Earthbound... I know the most deserving parents in the whole world, and I think you'd be an awesome fit!"

YAY for heartbeats :D

Kellie,

I have been following your blog since just a couple of days after you lost your sweet angel and never left a comment because I didn't really know what to say, or want to say the wrong thing, but I did pray for you often. I've read every post & have been following your journey to finding a new "normal".

I was pregnant at the time I read your first post about Maddie getting her wings, and now I have a healthy 5 month baby boy. I would like to thank YOU for that. I NEVER new that SIDS could happen. I was planning on letting my son sleep with bumpers in his crib. I wouldn't have known about any of the precautions honestly. Maddie has probably saved my sons life many times for making me aware of precautions to SIDS. Thank you so much for blogging!!!

Another thing is, you've taught me to hold my son tighter, give him more kisses, let him stay up later than his bedtime, and be held whenever he wants. You see, we are military & stationed in Germany, far far away from family and friends. It's just me, hubby, and son..There are MANY times I feel like I can't go on, I just need a break from my son, I'm gonna go crazy from having no time to myself. But, then I remind myself that there are many mommies out there (like you) that would do ANYTHING to spend time with their angel one more time. This helps me & gives me strength to be the best mommy I can be for Travis!!

Anyway, it honestly brings me tears of happiness to know God sent you a new blessing in your life. I will continue to pray for you and James and your whole family. I hope you have an amazing healthy pregnancy & I can't wait til you get to hold your baby "girl" ;) I think it's a boy though! hehe!

-Congratulations and sorry for the long comment :)

My cousin just found out his wife is expecting. They are calling him "Teddy Graham" lol Congrats!

Stacy said...

I'm so happy for you both. What a cute gummy she is!

whitlarsen said...

Congrats!! So happy for you and James. Have you ever heard of the home gender test? It's called the Intelligender, its similar to a home pregnancy test. You can find out as soon as 8-10 weeks. It's very accurat and so fun!!

Maria said...

Congratulations to you!

Unknown said...

Oh My Kellie! This is wonderful news!! I am positive Maddie sent Gummy your way. She probably told Gummy what wonderful parents you and James are and told Gummy that s/he would be lucky to have you as parents too!!! Maddie loves you and she wants you to be happy.

Lindz said...

Congrats. I think this baby will be a boy :)

I am over the moon happy for you guys. I have been praying for you and James and Maddie for a very long time. I prayed that you would get pregnant at the rigt time and God thought it was time!!!! I can't wait to find out if "she" really is a she!!!

Mireya Garcia said...

just a q, with ur sweet maddie did u have a feeling it was a girl, like how u feel it's a girl now?! When I was prego I swore it was a girl to find out at 11wks it was a lil man :) but a boy is as amazing...can't wait till u officially find out

RNBH said...

Congratulations!

Serene said...

Awe! Your little gummy is so cute! When I was pregnant my gut feeling was that I was having a boy. I always thought I would be the mother of boys. My first U/S they weren't positive, but were pretty sure I was having a girl. I didn't believe it, because I felt so strongly that I was having a boy. Then they told me girl at my second U/S, and I still wasn't convinced until I had my baby girl. Boy was I wrong!! (I'm glad I was wrong though, because I can't imagine having any other baby!)
I'm so excited for you, and can't wait to hear about your pregnancy!! You are such great parents, and I'm sure Maddie told her new little "sister" how lucky she will be to have such loving parents.
Praying for you!
Serene

RunsWithScissors said...

Congrats! Thanks for sharing this amazing news. When I saw both of you in the video, I new it must be good news! I will keep you, Gummy and James in my prayers.

Amanda said...

My husband swears by the heartbeat. Both times with me it was over 140 and he said girl. Both times he was right. I think you may be right about "she". :) Super happy for you! Also I bought a pillow for my daughters little mini couch from one of the auctions for your sweet Maddie and it's still on their little couch. They hug it and sleep with it and it makes me smile thinking of how many snuggles Maddie is getting even if it is just a pillow. :)

This baby is beautiful already! Always praying for you!

Eva said...

I have been following your blog ever since your precious Maddie became an angel. I often wondered how you got through everyday and admired your honesty about being angry and how unfair this whole journey has been. You and your husband are truly inspirational people. When I read you were expecting I cried, although I have never met you I can't imagine two people that deserve another little miracle in their lives. You are always in my thoughts and I am so happy for the two of you!

Unknown said...

Congrats!! A high heartbeat like that usually means girl:-) Our daughter's heartbeat was always around 165. Good luck.

Shelly and Andy said...

"She" is beautiful Kellie! Congrats!

Jenni Halley said...
