So i think Daniel and I have finally wrapped our heads around this whole having a baby thing weve got going on.. haha.. actually maybe we havent...

Things have been going good.. I have been feeling sick but i havent actually gotten sick so that is good... Daniel has pointed out to me that i have been "eating larger portions lately" so that comment is now eternally BURNED into my brain.. yet i continue to eat larger portions. haha.. we started telling people which was huge and weird and made me shake and get weak in the knees but its nice that people know... i do LOVE the fact that we had a secret!!

We celebrated our first anniversary!! We have been married a year!! i cannot believe it!! Its so wonderful but i must admit i am sad about not being newlyweds anymore. newlyweds are so cute and fun and in love.. so i have decided that people are just going to refer to us by saying that we still act like newlyweds.. (i may be a little vain... just kidding).... we have talked about how connected we feel since finding out about the baby... its a stronger and deeper bond than either of us have ever felt before.. which i thought the old bond was pretty serious so... whew!! its amazing to think that life is going to continue to bring us closer and closer..

We are in the process of seriously shopping for a new car, ESPECIALLY since mine broke down this am... You know what i thought after the inital swearing and crying after the car broke down (and I broke down apparently).... thank you god... and daddy... for not having that happen on the interstate, keeping me safe until i parked and that its just a car!! Sure it inconvienced my day but it also gave my husband the opportunity to come rescue me and be my hero!! What i am trying to say is i think... maybe.... i may have changed my priorities just a little bit here!! Could this be it... am i growing up??? CRazyness i tell you!! hahah

so yesterday and last night i worked on my scrapbooks and i felt joy in it again!! I have so much to catch up on that it has felt like a chore to me but yesterday it all came back to me... :) now i only have like 2,000 pages left.. :)

So thats all that has been going on....L 8 ter!!!

Pictures of the pregnancy tests.... the bun i put in the oven..... me after going to the doctor and confirming the pregnancy.

The real deal

So the real reason i started this blog last Wednesday is because we found out we are expecting!!!

I couldnt concentrate for longer than 5 seconds on anything that day so i was trying to keep busy. Daniel and I are thrilled... totally shocked but very thrilled... We have known for 5 days now and its still seeping in!! We really decided that we were ready in February so it didnt take long at all which is probably why we are so shocked.

Our baby is due on December 14th, which makes for very busy Decembers! We concieved on the 19th of March (of course the 19th... everything great happens on the 19th of the month for us).
I really dont know much else to say about it at this point... We are seriously confused on what to do next!! haha!! I went to the doctor on friday and he confirmed it, i am taking all the vitamins i need and eating healthy and exercising, we have told our families and my best friend... i bought a journal to keep everything documented... and just taking it one day at a time....

tonite i am going to lauras and she is going to give me her books so that will probably guide me in the right direction. Tomorrow me and daniel are going to discuss our plans for telling our friends... we are trying to wait but its kind of a HUGE elephant in the room with us and at any moment i feel like i am going to shout it out!! :)

As of right now i am feeling great!! i am so happy that i have an amazing husband and we both feel so incredibly close to each other right now! we have great support from our families and are excited by the upcoming addition to our family. the weirdest thing is .... i havent cried yet!! thats how i know im still in shock!!

one last thing i want to add in this post is 2 funny stories already!! first, the way i told daniel the news... first thing in the am when i took the test i told him as he was in a deep sleep, then i wanted to tell him in a cuter way so after the second test with a darker line i was cooking dinner and asked him if he could grab that last of it out of the oven while i took a (imaginary) phone call.... all that was in there was a hamburger bun... get it bun in the oven...when he turned around i was standing there with the second test shaking!!! it was soo awesome!! 2nd story, when i called the doctor to make an appointment to come in the lady asked what i needed to come in for and i said "i keep taking pregnancy tests and there are positive lines on them so i need to find out if i am pregnant" she of course laughed and told me i was... i was just concerned cause they were so light... haha!!

Baby's 1st braves game

We went to the Braves season opener. We had not told anyone we were expecting and Pauly kept asking why i wasnt drinking while we were tailgaiting or at the game. The game ended up being like the longest one in history (i may or may not be exaggerating) and we were there til like 2am!!! It was alot of fun being around everyone with our little secret!!

So I am starting a blog, i have no idea what i am going to write about so this could get interesting. I used to write in diaries but this will keep everyone else updated on things that are going on and i think it will be fun. I got inspired a few times before to keep a blog so im going to keep it private until i know i will keep up with it. Since i just filled out the about me portion i really dont have much else to say... so xoxo!! (im channeling gossip girl)
