This post may come as a shock to a few of you but most of you already know that Nate and I are expecting our first little angel in January. Our lives changed on May 26th 2010. I remember the night before I was extra emotional and told Nate I felt like I was ready to be a mommy. The next day, more on wishful thinking than anything I took a pregnancy test and MUCH to my surprise it was POSITIVE!!!! We'd only been off the pill for a few months and thought for sure it would take longer than that for it to happen, but apparently our timing was right. I didn't have to work that day and Alex was coming over that morning. I couldn't help but tell her right when she got there, I don't think Nate was too shocked to find out he was the 2nd person to know hear the news, I'm just not very good and holding good news in :) So Alex and I figured out a way to tell Nate the good news!!! Nate came home for lunch and wasn't having a great day so I told him I had an idea to make it a little better. I took him back to the bathroom where the 2 pregnancy tests were and I had the movie Little Rascals sitting on the counter. He was very surprised and a little stunned I think but very excited. We've had one appointment so far and things are looking good. I am about 13 weeks along, have been a little under the weather and EXTREMELY tired. The doc says the due date is Jan. 24. We are so happy to be adding to our family and can't wait to be parents... except for that little (BIG) part of us that is so nervous that maybe Baby should just stay in my belly for as long as possible ha ha ha! I have some great friends that are all wonderful Mommies to look to for guidance and of course my fabulous mom and mother-in-law. So why I am so nervous... uh because it's a kid that I'm responsible for and that is a HUGE step!!! Sorry it took so long to post anything but I basically go to work, come home and eat and then I crash. Sleep is my friend right now, poor Nate is probably so bored of me being so tired OR loves the fact that his PS3 is his good friend when I'm sleeping :)
