New Beginings!

The beginning to my blog....

I have joined the blogging trend. I decided (with lots of encouragement) that it was time to start a blog. I always said that I would blog when I had something exciting in my life. :)

The best thing that I can think of is happening right now in our lives...we are going to be parents! We are due March 16 and are loving the fun changes that are happening. We are officially 24 weeks now, so that means over half way there!

I woke Mike up one morning to look at a stick with 2 blue lines on it. His reaction was so great! We were both so excited to finally see a positive pregnancy test that I decided to take a picture!



We told my family at Mike's birthday party. My mom's reaction was so funny when she went to cut the cake. She kept saying "OH MY, OH MY!" The cake says "Happy Birthday Daddy!"

We are going to have the first grand baby for both of our families, so needless to say, everyone is excited with us!

We have had a few ultrasounds, so I have lots of pictures of the baby already.







This is our 2nd ultrasound. The first one was not much to see, so I didn't post it.




These two are of my 20 week ultrasound. It it so fun for us to see the changes. We could see arms and legs and the baby was moving like crazy. Everything is measuring well!
We UNFORTUNATELY did not find out what we are having... Mike is all about the surprise, while I am going crazy not knowing. I even had the ultrasound tech write it down for me and put it in an envelope!
I have a birthday coming - my wish is to open the envelope for my present!
