Full-term today!

Well I had a doctor's visit yesterday and Noelle was quite the active one during the appointment! I think she was excited for the attention. :) Anyway, I have not started to dilate yet, but doc said that she is VERY low and in position - still head down. It looks like she's getting ready to make her debut! Today, I'm considered full-term so if she's ready to come out, she should be fully developed! And of course - we're more than ready for her! Her bags are packed, clothes are washed and room is ready! We're so excited!!

I'll definitely keep posting updates on here after every doc appointment. They will be weekly now! :)

Happy Birthday, Madeline!

A year ago today, I gave birth to an angel. It was such a sad moment for us obviously, but at the same time it was the proudest moment of my life. Not one single day has gone by that I haven't thought about her a million times and I don't suspect that there ever will be. Madeline has made me a stronger person with a stonger faith. It's a miracle how she has touched so many lives without taking one single breath. Of course, it is still so sad for us to think about where she would be right now - what she would be like, would she be walking, what her first birthday party would be like, etc. But at the same time, it's heart-warming to know how many people lives she has touched in the past year. Without her, Maddie's Footprints would not be possible. Look how far it has come in just a few short months. Just this past weekend, we were able to help our very first family. What an accomplishment and it's all because of her!

Happy Birthday, Madeline! We love you and miss you very much!
