We're going to have a baby!

This post is WAY overdue. Sorry about that.

We found out I was pregnant the Sunday after Father's Day. We are SUPER excited!

Overall, I've felt pretty good. I haven't been too nauseous, though I have had my moments.

Here is a copy of what I like to call my "baby blob" picture. It was taken at my first appointment, when I was 10 weeks along. I never understood why people enjoy these so much, since you really can't see anything but a blob. But it means a lot more when it's my baby. First of all, it made it seem more real that there was actually a baby inside of me. I had no idea that you could see the heartbeat (not just hear it) that early. It was very cool.


My official due date is February 27th. And no, it is not a leap year next year (although I think it would be cool to have a leap year baby). (This is one of the most common questions I get when I tell people my due date, so I thought I would just clear it up now.)

Jeff has been really kind and helpful to me. He is a good sport when I'm tired/cranky, or if I don't want to cook dinner because nothing sounds good to me.

We should find out if the baby is going to be a boy or a girl mid-October, so we'll keep you posted!
