Since our big announcement, we’ve been overwhelmed with sweet words of encouragement, congratulations, and excitement! We are so thrilled to share this journey with you all and can’t wait to see the Lord work through this little one’s life.

Morning sickness hits me every morning and there is 0 relief until about 9 AM.
Baby Heape is due on 7/7/14.

We found out on October 28th and didn’t tell a sole until November 28th. (One very long month!)
We shared our news with immediate family on Thanksgiving Day.

To help share our news, we had photos printed of our very first ultrasound with “you’re grandparents, you’re an aunt, you’re an uncle, etc.” printed on each one.

It’s hard to believe that little blob has grown so much in the past few weeks!
