Sleeping Beauty

Well, today marks 6 weeks with the pregnancy. Still very early, but let me tell you..it is taking allot out of me. I am tired almost all of the time. I'm sure it doesn't help that I spend my day chasing twin toddler boys and a very active, fast crawling 11 month old!! They wear me out like you wouldn't believe. By the time I get home around 5 or 6 I am already ready for bed. Luckily, I have the most amazing, helpful, loving, and supportive husband in the entire world!!!
Yesterday, the boys completely wore me out to the point of tears. I walked in the door to find the apartment completely cleaned(vacuumed and all), candles lit, a glass of water on the table for me, and my snuggie(which Nick bought me for my birthday) on the couch all ready for me!! My husband is the best!!! He even went out and got me pizza for dinner : )
I really don't know what I would do without him. He is going to make such a wonderful father. He already talks to the baby all the time, which we have named JuneBug until we find out the sex.

So I know I am supposed to be posting everyday on this gratitude challenge, but I am just wiped out. I have been doing it, but by the time I get home at night I can barely keep my eyes open long enough to eat dinner, let alone sit at the computer and update the blog.

So for now, it will just be updates on how me, Nick, and JuneBug are doing. They may be few and far between(because of the exhaustion, and lack of events, lol) but keep checking back for updates!!!

Love to all!!!

Expecting the unexpected

Well in case you havent heard, Nick and I are expecting a baby. We just found out on Tuesday night and could not be more excited!!! That was by far the best birthday present I could have gotten. I will never forget my 26th birthday : ) We called my parents on Wednesday evening and told them. They were beyond thrilled, my mom teared up and you could just tell in my dads voice how thrilled he was to be a soon to be grandpa!!! For my birthday dinner, Nick and I went out to eat with Michael, Lauren, and Laurens parents. Of course as soon as we got there everyone wanted me to order a drink to celebrate my brithday, but I ordered water. Which in turn prompted my brother to jokingly say "Are you pregnant"...I just looked at him and smiled and said "Well...yes I am"!! Everyone was so excited and congratualted us.
Before I could even get home and post it on facebook my dad already had. lol

The past few days have just been a blur, but an exciting one. I am still in a bit of shock, but so overjoyed!!!
I had my first doctors appointment today, and I was not impressed with the doctor or the office. I walked out of the office crying at the way the doctor spoke to me and about my baby. Just not what I was wanting to feel at my first appointment. So for now, I am looking for a new doctor. One who is preferably Pro Life and has a smaller practice. I want to be treated like an individual, not just another patient. And I want my doctor to respect the precious life I am growing inside of me, and know that it is a true gift from God.

Anyways..we did find out that our due date is JUNE 2, 2010. We are very excited to hear the heartbeat for the first time and find out the sex. We are trying to come up with a name to call the baby until we find out the sex, beause we don't want to call it "it" the whole time. It is a baby, not an it!! So if you have any suggestions let us know : )

Well that is it for now..Love to all.
