Episode #4 "Jumping the Shark"

My life feels like a sitcom. And in every great sitcom they inevitably add another child just to keep things interesting. It happens to the best of shows from 'Friends' to 'Mad About You' to 'Family Ties.' Well, we sure are keeping things in our lives interesting! Tomorrow we are "Jumping the Shark" and completing our family!
Not sure really how to feel tonight. I've been going back and forth from being super excited to being just as nervous. It's odd for me today. Knowing/Not Knowing. Knowing the time and date when we will have our child. But, not knowing just what to expect with her. We know there is a potential for complications, but just not to what extent. It is such an odd feeling. Trying to be positive, but also trying to prepare myself for whatever may come. I'm anticipating things going absolutely perfect and the kidney will not effect her breathing at all. But, at the same time, knowing she may end up having surgery or spending some time in the NICU.
This pregnancy has thrown us for so many loops, but I wouldn't change any of it for the world. Kenny and I already have such a connection to Kaylee. I know every parent has a connection to their child during pregnancy, but this one feels different. We've had such a road with her and a fight that we know she is a special child and God has AMAZING plans for her.

As we are coming to the end, I just want to take the time to thank everyone who has been praying for us and supporting us throughout this pregnancy. From the first month when I was in the hospital and the Dominguez's brought me Starbucks and a DVD player, to my mom watching the kids during the many Dr. appointments, and of course all the countless prayers from everyone. We really could not have gotten through this without all of you!!
Thank you!!
I can't wait for you to meet our little Sweet Pea!


(Stacey will update this while I'm in the hospital so check back for cute pictures!! )
