Coming out

I went to lunch with the girls today to tell them the news. It was very exciting to be able to tell people!! When I got home, I spoke with Mike and we both decided we can go ahead and share the news. So we sat Mikey down and told him all about it, and showed him a picture of the Ultrasound. He seems to be pretty excited about it and even said hello to the baby in my belly! :) So I guess we're coming out with it now!! I'm very happy to not have to keep my mouth shut about this anymore!!

Confirmation

Mike and I just got back from the doctor's office, and it's official. I'M PREGNANT!!!! We got pictures of the baby, and you can barely see anything, it's so small! And we got to hear the heartbeat, too! We're so excited! I am 6 weeks and 3 days pregnant today and the baby is due on October 8, which is the day after Mikey's birthday. I kinda wish it wasn't so close together, but what can you do. I really hope the baby isn't born on his birthday, so they can each have their own special day, but I don't think I have a choice in the matter. I have to wait another 10 weeks before I find out the sex. I wanna know now!! Anyway, I will be telling a select few the news in the next week or so. Mike and I have decided to wait to tell the public until later.

We're having a baby!!!

New bed!

Mike and I have been talking about upgrading our Queen bed to a King for a while. Well, this morning we went to the store and found one! We figured with me being pregnant, we would need a bigger, softer bed that's not 18 years old. So we bought it and it gets delivered on Friday! So we decided to cancel our dinner reservations for Valentine's Day and buy some new sheets instead. So I'll be cooking a nice dinner at home. I wish we could eat it on our new bed, but it won't be here yet! :)

The beginning

Hello! This is my first blog ever, but I figured this was as good a time as any to start. Mike and I have been married now for almost 5 months and couldn't be happier. My stepson, Mikey, is now 7 years old and growing like a weed! We've all talked about expanding our family for a while now, and I believe the time has come! I've noticed a few signs of things being different with me, so I bought a pregnancy test a few days ago and it was positive! I have a doctor's appointment scheduled for next week where I will get an Ultrasound and find out for certain. But we are pretty sure it's the real deal and we are so excited!! I have had baby fever for a while now, and would like to give Mikey a brother or sister before he gets much older. He drew a picture of me today with a big belly and said it's me when I do get pregnant. He doesn't know anything yet, so I thought it was very cute! He has asked me multiple times if I'm pregnant yet, and I can't wait to tell him when I know for sure. But until the doctor confirms, I must keep my mouth shut, which is very difficult for me! I'll write more after my appointment next week.
