December 15, 2011..the start of a great adventure

Today has been a wonderful mix of emotions..I found out that my life will be changing drastically (in a good way of course).

In April Shad and I decided that we wanted to start our own little family. We knew it wouldn't happen right away..but we sure hoped it would. Well 3 months went by and nothing had happened still. Knowing that my mom and grandma never had a problem getting pregnant, I was a little worried that I wasn't yet but then again relieved. During this time I was so stressed because Shad didn't have a job and we were living off my income. But then things started looking up for Shad and I. He got a good steady job, he would be graduated from school within a week and now we are finally starting to save for a house. With all this happening I was able to relax and not worry about all the bad things going on. God works in mysterious ways. I could not be happier with his plan for us now.

So on December 15, 2011 our biggest Christmas wish came true. We found out that we are going to be having a baby! :) After I took the test and it said "PREGNANT" I went running in to the bedroom to tell Shad. I scared him half to death when I started screaming "we're pregnant" at him over and over again. Once he woke up enough to realize what I was saying he started yelling "YES" over and over again. It was so cute to see how happy he was that we are finally going to have a baby of our own. That afternoon I called my Dr to make our fist appointment on January 24th. Right at this moment I'm 4 weeks..for our appointment I will be 10 weeks give or take. When I was making the appointment I made it very clear that I had no idea what I was doing or what to do next. The lady helping me was so nice and understanding. She walked me through it and told me that everything would be explained at my first appointment..I still don't know if we will have an ultrasound or not. I sure hope we do! I can't wait to hear the little heart beat!!

I could not be more happy for this opportunity! Shad and I both feel very blessed that this has happened. We can't wait to meet our little baby in August or September (I don't know the exact date yet). So not knowing anything about what is going to happen or what to do next, I started researching online. I went to babycenter.com and it told me that my due date would be August 22, 2011. I'm still in shock that a little baby is growing inside me! But so excited and happy at the same time! I can't stop smiling, and I can already feel Shad and I growing closer to each other. It's amazing what a little baby can do to a relationship. I can already tell Shad will be an amazing father!
