So many prayers were offered, so many tears shed, but I had to hold onto to that small amount of faith that what was promised me in a blessing would come to pass.
Believe me, that bit of faith I had was dwindling very low...but faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains...and it did.
We had our BIG ultrasound today...
SO AMAZING!
We spent a whole hour getting to know every inch of our little GIRL!
My heart is so full right now. We have the privilege to be the parents of the two most loved, most prayed for, most adored little girls.
Here she is...already mastering the Hollywood "over the shoulder pose." 
Cutest little foot...
This is our favorite! She totally turned toward us just to say hi!
This little lady had us all fooled. Jared and I were sure we were carrying a little boy, but all along Bella would tell us "it's a little sister."
I have been feeling her move for about a week and a half now. At first I wasn't quite sure that was what it was but today at our appointment every time she moved on the screen I would feel it.
Wow this is really happening for us!
For the past 4 months I have been protecting my heart...feeling so afraid that something would go wrong. I feared that after all this...after how far we'd come...I still...in the end..wouldn't get my hearts deepest desire.
I have come to learn that the emotions and fears I have felt while pregnant are the same emotions and fears I felt while adopting Isabella.
I am truly humbled.
And honored to be able to experience becoming a mother both ways...and I cannot wait for this little girl to make her grand entrance...because then I can tell the world that it does not matter how your children come...they will come...and they are YOURS.
My girls will probably look as different as can be...Bella with her beautiful brown skin and dark hair...this baby girl will most likely be blond with blue eyes(Kunz genes are pretty dominant) and I couldn't be more thrilled with the beautiful rainbow of color that is my family.
They are sisters...we are a family, and have been long before we ever came to earth.
God truly does have an amazing way of giving you every desire of your heart.
