Maingot Update

Gosh I have been using FB that I have neglected my blog. Well the Maingot's have some excited news....we are having a baby in December. The story of how this came to be is so special. Gary was totally DONE with having children. I on the other hand just had the desire in my heart to have one more. I pryaed for two years that God would either change his heart or mine. In March Gary came to me and said that he felt God spoke tio his heart about not standing in the way of something that I really desired. So, we tried that month and got pregnant! The best part is that we found out on Levi's 4th birthday! I was convinced that this little baby had to be a boy! Well after the specialist scanning me and saying 80%-90% that it was a girl, I paid today for a private ultrasound tech today to tell me. She said I was the hardest person she has ever scanned....and gave me a 99% chance it was a GIRL!



I have to be honest, when the specialist told me I went home and cried my eyes out. I felt like I was grieving my little boy all over again. From all the signs I couldn't understand why God wouldn't give us a boy. I am then reminded that our ways are not God's ways. He is perfect and doesn't make mistakes. I am happy that I am able to get pregnant and experience this amazing thing of carrying life and giving birth. So I am rejoicing with having a little girl. God has a special plan for her. I have to have a scheduled C-section December 16. We picked out Sadie Grace for her name.

Here are some pics of my other girls!
