What's new

Well I haven't posted much in a while because nothing really new has been going on... Well except for the fact that, I'M PREGNANT!!! Ha ha you thought this was going to be just another ordinary boring post. Well, it isn't! At least, I hope you aren't done reading now that you've read the good part. I've got more to say! First off I will give some info because I'm sure there are many questions speeding through your mind right now. I am 14 weeks (3 months) and I have the most amazing due date ever, 12/12/12! Don't think we could have planned that any better! And yep, we got pregnant right away. Waited 3 months after the miscarriage and sure enough, we didn't have to wait any longer than that! I didn't feel as sick this time as I did the first time. But I have been sick! Tired, irritable, nauseous, the symptoms were all there but not nearly as horrible as last time. I never threw up either, (although I came close many times). The peak was around 10 weeks. I was glad to be sick because I took it as a good sign but at the same time it sucked. It was a love/hate relationship. I don't feel much sickness at all anymore and I am loving that! I am starting to get a little uncomfortable in my clothes and will probably need some stretchy pants soon... yip-ee!

My ultrasound will be August 2nd and yes we want to know what it is! My family will be in town and some of them will get to go to the ultrasound with me. It will be so fun to have some family be part of the experience! Oh and you may be wondering what I'm going to do as far as work. Well, I plan to work right up until delivery time and I think afterwards I will go back part time, at least until John is done with school. (He gets done in April) It may take him some time to get a job and I think it might be nice to work like 2 days a week and bring in a little extra cash just in case. Also, I might like getting out of the house once in a while. I will not be managing the salon once I have the baby but I think I have a good replacement lined up so, everything seems to be working out!

I feel very blessed and so excited I can hardly stand it! It doesn't always feel real to me even though I've been to the doctor twice and have heard that amazing heartbeat sound twice. Everything is looking good and I am a little overwhelmed that it seems to be going kinda easy so far. Of coarse I've still got a ways to go and I'm sure it does get harder as time goes on. But hey, this is really such a blessing. I know that everything I went through before was meant to happen even if I don't understand all the reasons why. I feel more prepared and ready. I feel excited and happy. I just can't believe I've been given this opportunity and I love this little baby so much already! John is just as excited as I am and we so look forward to becoming parents!!!

So there ya have it! Probably the most exciting news I'll ever share!!! But please don't let that turn you off from coming back to visit and continue reading ok?
