Our Big News



As I am sure everyone knows that is reading this blog, I am pregnant! It is a whole new, amazing experience. I now understand why all of those women would talk endlessly about the changes (both pleasant and not-so-pleasant) going on with their bodies, as well as this cute little bundle of love that is shortly on the way. And yes, I already know how adorable my little bean is because I have seen the ultrasound pictures. Clearly, s/he is the cutest fetus ever!


I am currently 24 weeks, which is the last week of my second trimester. I cannot believe it! The time has flown by. It seems like yesterday that I ran out and bought my third pregnancy test because there was just no way the first two were correct. If I didn't believe the strips, I definitely could not ignore my ever growing and changing body for long. Of course, not all of pregnancy is fun, but I really do love it. Jeff and I are constantly marvelling at the fact that a real human being is growing inside of me.


We have been busy getting everything ready for our new arrival. Jeff rearranged our rooms and painted the nursery last weekend while I took Adam to visit my parents at the beach. I realize that I really got the tough end of the bargain. It actually is going to take a little more paint, which he will conveniently be able to do while I go to San Francisco with Deidra next week. I am so excited about my trip- I have always wanted to go to there, but have never been able to. Poor Jeff though! I may as well enjoy the rest of my summer because school will be starting back very shortly. From that point on, I imagine our lives will be a whirlwind!
