we got to have thanksgiving dinner with kennedy this year. we were very excited to have her in utah. we celebrated wednesday night because that was the only night she was allowed to be with us. after stuffing our faces, we got everyone together for a group picture/video...
then mike got so excited/nervous that he pushed the pause button on the camera. but what he said was "on the count of three, everybody say cheese. 1...2....carly's pregnant!"
and here are the reactions we got:
then he realized he pushed pause and started recording again...
and in case you can't hear, he said "oh, and there's more news...it's two."
so yes...we have more than ever to be thankful for this year! i am 17 weeks and due may 11, but will likely deliver in april, just a couple of weeks before we finish building our house. life is about to get really awesome around here.
while i am so excited i can hardly stand it, my heart hurts because i know some of you are praying for the same miracle. i'm praying for you too. i'm so sorry if this announcement brings pain or sadness. i've been there, and i don't think i'll soon forget what infertility feels like. you are not alone, and i know God will answer your prayer in His own time and His own way just as he has ours.

So excited for you! You guys have been on a such an journey, and what an incredible blessing. Hope you are feeling well and enjoying every second of it!
I can hardly type this as I am busy wiping away the tears. I am just so happy for you. And, the last part of your post was such a kind, empathetic thing to add because there are many women still struggling with this. And who knows their feelings better than you.
That is so wonderful, Carly! Congratulations! I know you are going to be a fabulous mommy!
Oh, Carly! I am so happy for you! I can't think of a more deserving or appreciative mother than you! Those little babes are going to be so loved, they won't know what to do. :)
This is such happy news!
Hope you are feeling well!
Your videos made me cry. Sooooooo happy for you!!
Such a fun idea to record the announcement and take a picture of the surprise!
I am so happy for you guys! Can't believe that you'll suddenly have 2/3's as many kids as me in one day! Especially since my oldest is 6. Wow, every time I say that it seems crazy.....I have a 6 year old. Scary!
Omg, so Leslie's face is HILARIOUS. you said it was the best but that's really funny. I might need to start txting u everyday because I keep thinking of things to tell you. Like get car seats that are super easy to strap and unstrap because after doing SO MANY TIMES your gonna want something easy. So if u don't mind... Oh, and I found one more book to send you. The best one. The kids had taken it off my nightstand and hid it in their toy box. I'll send it to you. SO SAD I don't think I'll see u any time soon. Literally makes me want to cry.
