So Very Thankful!

Introducing the newest member of the Ruddick family~due to arrive at the end of November!  We couldn't be more thankful for this precious gift from God! 
On May 12th, the proud big brothers got to come to one of my appointments in hopes of hearing the baby's heartbeat.  At first the Dr. couldn't find the heartbeat, so she brought in an ultrasound machine to get a closer look.  Everything was fine with the baby, and the boys, especially, loved getting to see what was growing in Mama's tummy. (:  When the Dr. asked the boys if they wanted a brother or a sister, Ronan said he wanted a sister and Griffin said he thought it was a boy.  We will find out soon!  No matter what, we are all just thankful that we get to welcome a new life into our family.  This is something that we have been hoping and praying for since my miscarriage a year & a half ago.
