...the BIG announcement...

So I've decided I'm really not very good at this whole blogging thing. Every time I try to do a post, I just end up looking at everyone elses blogs and thinking how cute they are and how I wish I could be as good as them at staying up to date with my blog. I guess sometimes I just feel like my life isn't exciting enough to display to the world. But there is one exciting thing that has happened to us! Most of you probably already know, but I guess I will finally make it official...Justin and I are having a baby!! We are both so excited to become parents! We have been so blessed to have had such good examples of great parents in our lives, that we are thrilled, and of course nervous, to become parents ourselves. This week starts my 14th week and the beginning of my second trimester. I feel even more blessed to have made it this far after the miscarriage last time. Thank you all again for the love and support! I will try to be better about keeping this thing updated as the baby and I grow! :) For now all I have is just this one ulrasound picture of the baby at around 10 wks...

It was so much fun to go to my 10 wk appointment! Since I miscarried last time my OB wanted to see me at 6wks and then again at 10wks this time. At our second appointment he was so nice and gave us a quick ultrasound "on the house," so that we could see the baby moving and hear the heartbeat (which was Justin's favorite part), because my doctor knew how nervous I was going into this second pregancy. We couldn't be more thrilled to have this little one join our family!
