Sad Day for the Martin Family

Well, yesterday we had our first ultrasound for the new baby. The baby measured at 9 weeks but they couldn't see or hear a heartbeat. So, they told us that the baby hasn't survived and that we should expect to lose the baby in the next few days. It was pretty sad news. I guess I am still kind of in shock because nothing has happened yet. But I also take comfort in knowing that things like this usually happen for a reason. I am so grateful for my sweet baby girl and loving husband. I am trying to take time to reflect on all the many blessings (and there truly are sooo many) I have in my life.

We will keep trying for another baby, but I think I want to take a break for a minute and just play and have some fun with Emma and Brandon.
