I am 4 weeks today with my 3rd baby.

In 2019 at this very time I was pregnant with my 2nd child and moving out of my children’s fathers house into my BABYSITTERS craft room while waiting to find an apartment for myself. I was in a very dark place. My first 2 kids have the same father but when I got pregnant with my second we were not together. We were living in a weird situation where we lived together but weren’t actually together and we had an off night and got pregnant with our daughter. Immediately following finding out about my daughter I also found out their father was into some things I myself wanted nothing to do with so I moved us out while 8 weeks pregnant. My mom was in the hospital on a ventilator and we weren’t sure she was going to make it. Life was a crazy mess. I was ashamed to be having a second baby with a man my whole small town knew was not a good man.

I ended up finding a place for my kids and I to call home that I was proud of. I worked on myself and life and my family and career. Things were, honestly, perfect. My daughter came along and I started managing a shop and my son, my daughter and I enjoyed eachother everyday as our own little family.

In 2020 a whirlwind happened and I found myself deeply enthralled in the save our children stuff. I ended up meeting my husband at an event that was being thrown. The day of this event I woke up and had no energy or motivation to go at all. It was 2 hours from my house and I had SO much to do. I turned my alarm off and closed my eyes to go back to sleep but just laid there something telling me I needed to be there. My life changed that day.

By the end of 2020 I was married to the man of my dreams. I added 2 more children (9 & 6). We moved into the country from my little apartment. Life is full of love and happiness. I am watched over and thought about every single day. My husband has shown me things and feelings I never knew could be so real. That man would take a bullet for me and each one of our 4 children. He’s so good.

All 4 of our children have been happy accidents but neither of us have actually tried for a baby. We knew when we got married that we wanted one more that was both of ours (genetically ofcourse because we don’t believe in “steps”.) We had been trying to get pregnant before we got married but really started trying at the beginning of the year 2021. I know so many others have been trying for years but those 6 months of negative pregnancy test after negative pregnancy test got discouraging. We started seeing that planning sex around ovulation was stressful and not fun. This was our last month ‘trying’.

I woke up the other morning and took a 6 day sooner which looked like an indent instantly. After testing and testing we finally got our positives!

Here’s to 2022 and ANOTHER year of new beginnings and big BIG love! Welcome Baby Brummett! ♥️ Due January 23rd 2022 (10 days after mommas birthday and 1 week before baby sisters!)
