Fearfully and Wonderfully Made

"For you formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother's womb. I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Your works, and my soul knows it very well."  (Psalm 139:13-14)

Baby Toews is on the way!!  Jeremy and I are excited to meet our precious gift that God is entrusting to us around December 7, 2012!

Psalm 139 has long been one of my favorite chapters of scripture.  Over the past 14 weeks, it has taken on an even deeper meaning and significance for me.  Each week as we read about how our baby is developing, see ultrasounds of little Toews, and learn how the Lord created women to provide the nutrients to sustain this little life in the womb, we are in awe of our Creator!

So far, the pregnancy is going really well.  The doctor had some suspicions about a condition that I might have that often causes premature birth.  In order to confirm that, he and an ultrasound technician have had to do extra ultrasounds.  It turns out that the baby and I are healthy, and because of this whole process, we had multiple opportunities to see our baby!  So fun!  One can't explain seeing the heart beating, watching arms and legs moving around wildly, identifying facial features and bone structures, and witnessing the baby doing somersaults (inside me- crazy!).  We are already proud parents!
