Gender reveal and more

We are having........... 

 
A BOY and a GIRL..... Woooohooo!!!!! Thank you Jesus!!!! He really does give us the desires of our hearts! We would have been so happy with whatever they were but I prayed so hard for healthy first and a boy and a girl secondly! Here are some ultrasound pics from Friday! 




Meet Garrett Keith Wooten and Alyssa Brooke Wooten!!!! These are the names we picked out and love! We can't wait to watch them continue to grow and meet them for the first time! 

This is Garrett. He is sucking on his hand in the pic! He was super active during the ultrasound and would not be still! It was so cute! 

This is Alyssa! She was the calmer one during the ultrasound but she moved around plenty! Sweet girl!!! 

So we had the gender reveal with fireworks at my moms house Friday night. The blue fireworks went off perfectly but the pink/red fireworks accidentally got put upside down and exploded on the ground and then shot up at the house and all of us standing on the porch! It was hilarious and will make such a good story for years to come! Thankfully, no one was injured! 

Yesterday I had my first experience in the birth suites triage as a patient. I had starting feeling bad Saturday afternoon and Saturday night and Sunday morning I had way more vomiting than I have had so far being pregnant and was having low back pain around my kidneys all day yesterday. I literally felt terrible! I called the on call nurse and did what she suggested but had no relief so at 3pm I went in to be triaged. I knew it was just probably a virus or the UTI I had might have worsened but after trying to get pregnant for 7 years, I am not taking any chances! I will be THAT patient! Haha! My UTI still persisted and I now have a terrible head cold this morning. I think the combination of the 2 things just about got me yesterday. I am resting for a few days and drinking lots of fluids and will be back to tip top shape in no time! So glad me and the babies are ok! God is truly looking out and protecting us! 

Thank you all for encouraging us and praying with us! God is truly so so so good and soooo faithful and we are just blown away by His goodness! 13 weeks on Wednesday!!

  3. Hi Stacy-

    I am Callahan's mom from the NICU- I've been following your blog and praying for you since we left. I am SOOO excited that things are going well with the babies. Your blog proves the power in prayer and provides hope for those struggling with infertility and praying to be parents.

    Thanks for sharing your story! I can't wait to see pics of Garrett and Alyssa when they arrive!
