Christmas Delivery!

I'm so excited to finally announce that Brad and I are expecting a baby on December 23rd! We are definitely hoping that either the baby comes about a week early or a week late (not just a couple days late :) ). We are so excited and definitely a little nervous for this new stage in our lives.

I'm now 14 weeks along and life is getting so much better. My 1st trimester was pretty rough- I was throwing up about once or twice a day, my appetite was pretty much gone, and I had absolutely no energy or motivation. But things are definitely starting to improve- I only threw up three times this week and I feel much more myself.

We've all ready been able to see 3 ultrasounds of the lil' tot because I was threatening miscarriage at one point, my normal 10 week check-up, and a scare of possible appendicitis at the Emergency Room. As much as I don't like some of those scary things to happen there is nothing cooler than seeing that baby grow every time they do an ultrasound and hearing the heartbeat. What a marvelous experience. Life couldn't be better!
