First Comes Love
Then Comes Marriage
Todd and I are happy to announce that we're expecting! We are so excited and couldn't be more happy! The ultrasound of the baby was at about 91/2 weeks. I'm just about 11 now. Not quite out of my first trimester, but I promised Todd that if he could contain his excitement for a few weeks then we could tell everyone. My due date is August 26. We have truly been blessed and couldn't be more happy for what this new adventure holds for us. Luckily when we found out was just before we went home for the holidays so we were able to tell our families in person. Both families are equally excited and have been so supportive. The best part in telling them in person is that we were able to record their reactions.
Here is when we told the Wilsons. We were able to tell them on Christmas day just after we had all opened our presents. After Debbie opened the present we were able to take pictures and text them to all of Todd's sisters to tell them.
Here we are telling my family. For Christmas all the kids went in and bought my parents a DVD Recorder to burn all our old family videos onto DVDs. So we had just gone up stairs to watch a little bit of what had already been done. Just as we were all about to get up Todd and I gave my mom her gift. I think she new what was going on before she read what was on the outfit.
Man I loved my mom's reaction. Then the fact that my brother, Scott, had to leave the room. What was funny too was that my niece Brooklyn, she was the one opening the present with my mom, I don't think really understood what was going on. So now my mom has the outfit for when she comes up. Sorry mom and dad for ruining your cruise for the second time.
Everything's going well though. We go in to hear the heartbeat for the first time in a couple weeks. So hopefully we'll have more good news then! So right now we're just enjoying our time and figuring out things we need to do to help prepare us for when the baby comes!
