Well Ryan and I are having a baby in the next few weeks! I figured I should probably start blogging again. Ryan and I found out the day after Christmas we were going to be parents! Earlier that week I kept having a feeling I should take a pregnancy test but kept ignoring it because I figured I was going to start my period any day. well... a few days went by and nothing, except I felt like I was getting the flu. The day after Christmas we went sledding with Ryan's family, it was fun but I started to feel gross. After we went sledding we went home and ate pizza hut, BAD choice! It made me super sick! As the night went on I kept feeling sick like the flu but a bit different! I didn't have the chills or a fever just felt really nauseous and tired. Ryan suggested we go get a pregnancy test, I hesitated and said no, I don't want to spend $10 on a pregnancy test that I knew would be negative. We went to the store anyways and bought one. We went home and I peed the stick. I sat it on the edge of the sink and watched the little lines appear! Just like that it was POSITIVE! My jaw dropped in shock and i took it to Ryan to show him...his face sums it up!
We told both of our families that week but kept it a secret from everyone else until our first appointment. January seemed to last forever!! Our first appointment wasn't until Feb.9th! I was getting so anxious to see our little one! The day finally came and we got to hear our babes heart beat and watch her swim around! It was so surreal! After our appointment we went to Camera Shy to get our pics taken for our announcement! We made little valentines to send out to our family! It was so exciting to finally let our secret out!
February and March went by and I was sooo sick! I felt like i had the flu times 10! It was the worst feeling in the world! I lost 6 pounds my first trimester because I didn't and couldn't eat anything! I had no appetite! Finally April came around and all I wanted to eat was fruits and veggies! April was also awesome Because we found out that we were having a GIRL!! Ryan and I went to Fetal Photos to find out because I couldn't wait another month! We had the ultra sound tech not tell us the gender because we wanted to find out with our families and our Gender Reveal party! That whole afternoon seemed to drag on and on! Finally the time came and we were able to cut our cake! IT'S A GIRL!! Ryan and I are so beyond excited to have a little girl!
During May and June nothing too exciting happened..just worked and got started to get our nursery ready. In July my brother Britt came home form his mission! It was so exciting to see him after 2 years! The day after he came home we went to my grandmas house our annual 24th of July family party! We had a great time swimming, hanging out with family and had a BBQ!
August has been CRAZY!! it feels like its gone by so fast but slow at the same time! we finished our nursery and now we are just waiting for this baby to come!:)
