I've debated over whether to write such personal things on our blog, but we haven't gotten around to telling too many dear friends and family about our recent sad event. This past Friday, I went to the doctors for my first routine pregnancy exam (I was 9 weeks along and definitely feeling all the "perks"). They did an ultrasound and found out the baby did not have a heart beat. It was measuring about 8-9 weeks, so they told me it must have just happened recently. After a stunned week, I still haven't actually miscarried the baby, so a D&C was scheduled for today. Even though this sad event has caused much gloom and sadness in our home, we are so so grateful for amazing friends and family, for our knowledge of eternal life, and for our sweet healthy boy we have been hugging extra close this week. Thank you to everyone for the flowers, the meals, the ice cream, and more importantly, your love, your listening ears and your prayers. This week has been a little depressing, but I know that our Heavenly Father has a plan for our family. We love you.

And we love you. We miss you guys so much! I'm sorry we couldn't be there during all of this, but always remember we are only a call away even if we're not right down the parking lot anymore. You are in our prayers always. Hang in there friend.

Amy-I know saying sorry doesn't make you feel any better, but prayers might-Daniel and I are thinking of you and will keep you in our prayers. We miss you guys!! Jackie told me you are moving to a house in the ward-that will be a nice change. Keep in touch.
As someone who has been there, I understand how rough this is. This is definitely a tough thing to go through especially with the huge hormonal and emotional changes. The advice I can give you is that you take all the time you need to not be ok with things for a while. I will be thinking about you. We will keep you in our prayers. We sure miss you!
Amy, thank you so much for sharing your sad news so that we can send our love and support to you and your family during this time. I'm so sorry to hear, but I know you will be fine and I'll definitely keep you in my prayers.
Amy,

I am so sorry to hear the news. Aaron and I just went through that in August. I know it is one of the hardest things to go through. You guys are in our prayers.
We are heart-broken for your loss and our prayers are with you. Things happen for a reason (I know that sounds awful right now) but the appreciation for what you have been given (and what is yet to come) will be much greater with each obstacle. We love you guys and wish nothing but the best for you.
Much Love,
Jared & Emily
Thank you for letting us know, I'm so sorry. Our little Elise was born exactly one year (almost to the day) after I miscarried but it was an emotional year. The best advice I was given was to let yourself grieve. And rest, that D&C takes time to recover from. We love you three.
I love you Amy and I am sorry for your loss. Hugs and kisses to you all!
we send our love and big hugs your way!!!! We'll be keeping you in our prayers!!!!! Wish I was closer to do more!!!I'm sending you a virtual casserole!!!
Hey Amy, it is Sarah Goodfellow. I always check in with the good ol' Oregon friends through Kristen's blog...I am so sorry to hear about your miscarriage. I know what you are going through as I have been through 3. It is a very tough time but time does heal and I am sure you will be blessed with a healthy one soon. We love you guys and miss you.
