And Then My Husband Told The World

He of course asked me first- but he couldn't keep our secret anymore and today he announced our blessings on Facebook with this post- 

Kasey and I are extremely happy and excited to announce that Kasey is pregnant!!! Even better than that, we are going to have twins. We were able to hear both heartbeats and are both doing very well. We ask that your keep Kasey and the babies in your thoughts and prayers as it is still early and we have a long road ahead of us. We feel truly blessed for these miracles and that we can share it with our family and friends!!!!

Kind of a strange time to tell the world since just a day ago I thought I was going to lose the babies due to our bleeding scare. The more I heard from everyone, the more common I saw that bleeding really is. I am extremely thankful that the bleeding has not returned and am continuing to take it easy. 

I think Rob announcing to our friends and family on the internet shows our faith that things are going to go just find. It also helps to know that we have added to the amazing web of people who are praying for us daily. Our faith will keep us strong- yes it will! But the faith of others praying for us will surely help to strengthen us even more! 

I added this on my page as well -


I couldn't possibly thank everyone enough for all of your out pouring of love and prayers over Rob, The Babies, and I. I'm so thankful for the amazing friends and family we have and those that we continue to make. The babies are so incredibly blessed and loved already. Rob and I (and all the Grandparents!) are incredibly excited and over the moon happy for this blessing 


-And I just wanted to add a special note to any of you who are silently suffering as you endure the unbelievably painful battle with infertility and/or loss, please know you are forever in my prayers. I know that sometimes pregnancy announcements can come as hard blows, but please know you are not alone and miracles do come true♥

Admittedly I had copied what Liz from Wishing on A Snowflake had written during their Facebook reveal and edited it some. (Hope you don't mind Liz, your words were perfection for what I wanted to say!)

For today- we are so very thankful <3

  2. Hey, you only live once. Early or not, when your heart is filled with that much joy, I don't blame you for wanting to share it with the world!

  3. Just found your blog. First congratulations!! How cute is it that your husband was the one, who couldn't keep quiet?!? I absolutely loved what you wrote on your FB about infertility. I might have to borrow that when we finally make our announcement (also twins here, 7w5d today.) May the rest of your pregnancy be happy and healthy!!

  4. It's so good to feel supported. We haven't "told the world," but I haven't attempted to keep it a secret from everyone either - for similar reasons: We need the support! So all my immediate colleagues at work know, our immediate family members, and now my dance teacher. :-) I am sure you will get lots of prayers and love now!
