huge announcement
Keith and I have been on a longer (than some) path to become parents. For those of you who have stuck with me through the last 3 years…thank you. The encouragement I received from this place called the Blog World has been utterly amazing. For those of you who are new readers I have chronicled our story here. Having a baby seems like it should be so natural and easy….until it isn’t. As little girls, we are led to believe that just thinking about sex will get us knocked up. Ha! And the truth of the matter is that for some people it is a journey and it takes a team of people to get you from point A to point B.
I promise to give more details about everything soon but just know that right now I have never been more excited to say that Keith and I are expecting baby #1 in early November. We’re 14 weeks pregnant and feel very blessed.
12 weeks!
And of course, my class is super excited!!!
14 weeks! I have quite the bump, eh? And just to note…I am holding up the jean jacket vest just you didn’t think my outfit was a tad odd. 😉
We’re very excited. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we are both still nervous but trying to stay positive and enjoy this journey. Due November 7, 2013!

Kelly, I already said in on Facebook but I’ll say it again – my heart literally leaped out of my chest and I let out a cry of excitement that made Weston jump (we were eating lunch).

A baby?!?!? Life is simply wonderful, isn’t it? I couldn’t be happier for you, Keith, and Baby Bruneman if I tried (and believe me, I’ve tried. . .;) Congratulations and all of God’s richest blessings! 🙂
I am so so happy for you. Keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. Can’t wait to find out if Baby B is a boy or girl!
Kelly,
So sorry I am just seeing this, but I want you to know how excited I am for you and Keith. I have been praying for you guys for a while and this makes me so very happy!!!!!
Congradulations!!!! Continued thoughts and prayers your way for a wonderful, healthy pregnancy. Enjoy every second..I truly miss being pregnant and feeling those kicks!!!
Oh, and side note. November babies are the best 😉
Thanks Holly!!! The love and support I have received from all you guys has been amazing!
Hooooooray
So happy! Prayers answered!!!
Kelly, so happy for you and Keith! Just be happy now! Every pregnancy is something you can’t control or decide over, so just enjoy and we all hope for the best!! As I am re-productively challenged as well I know a little bit how it feels when everyone just “make babies” like that’s the most simple thing in the world. It’s been great for me that you have been so open and honest about your long journey towards being parents. I don’t know if I ever have children but I am fine with that, but if it ever happens I will be very happy. I will be thinking about you and wishing all the best for you and Keith! Love***
Fantastic news!! Congratulations 🙂
Congrats kelly! That’s such wonderful news.
Amazing news! Congrats! Lots of prayers to you and your baby!
I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU! i have followed your blog for a while. I will be praying for a healthy baby in november!! xoxoxo
Thank you Kendall!!!
I missed it. YAY!!!! Congratulations!!! I know it’s been a long, hard, frustrating road for you. So happy that it’s finally happened. 😀
