mortgage, then a...BABY IN A BABY CARRIAGE! You guessed it. It's time for Adam and I to join the parent club. We've been so excited to tell everyone.
I think Adam was more excited than I was when we found out. Of course, I was excited to have a baby, in the hopes my baby would be delivered to me by a stork in nine months...if only, because the first trimester has been brutal! Seriously, my body has gone rogue on me. Nonetheless I am excited but super nervous for what happens next. I have no idea what I am doing! I could barely keep my sunbeam class( 3yr olds) from jumping out of their seats, eating their ties and kicking other kids. How do mothers do it? My respect for them has deepened. I am grateful for the advice i have already been given, so keep it coming!
How did we find out? Well, it was not unexpected. We were trying. In mid July I tried a pregnancy test one day earlier than I should have, the results faintly said I was pregnant. I didn't believe it. Seeing really is not believing! I tried two more test in the days to follow. Adam could not stop smiling and screaming every time I showed him the results. We had our first ultrasound last month and got to see our little blob and hear the heartbeat. It started to become more real.
On a side note, Adam has noticed pregnancy is turning me into a baby. I am cranky when I am hungry, I can't keep anything down when I do eat. All I want is milk, which is funny because I don't really like milk. And sleeping as much as possible is a need.
(I wish I could say I'm pregnant in this picture, but I can't lie. I just have a gut.)
Well, we are expecting our little bean on April 7. But, I've always dreamed of a March baby. Why, you may ask? Just because of some very unimportant reasons. Its right after we get a tax return so you'll always have money for your kids birthday. Also, my family has a birthday/anniversary wall hanging and every month is filled up except March. I want to change that.
It's crazy to think we're going to be parents next year. We could not be more thrilled!
Story of my life right now.
Congrats, Adam!! I'm so excited for you and your wife!! You will be an amazing dad to that little one :)
ReplyDeleteStill so freakin excited for you guys!! You guys are going to be awesome parents and our kids will be best friends.
ReplyDeleteYou're going to be parents!!!! Soo excited for you too! And dido to craving lots of milk during pregnancy! I seriously would go through a gallon (or more) a week...usually more. And chocolate become a daily necessity too! And I have heard that the sicker you are, the healthier your baby will be. But hopefully you're over the worst of it! LoveU
ReplyDeleteLiz and Logan, I totally agree with you! Alyssa, I can't wait for all our kids to grow up together. If I have a boy, he's going to be a pimp with your girl and Charly! Jenny, yeah its crazy, we started buying milk in bulk at costco because it goes so fast! I can't wait to be over it too. I actually can't stand watching movies and tv anymore! I miss the outside world lol.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!! That is so exciting! You guys will be great! Good luck with all the fun things about pregnancy!
