We're Having a Baby!

Cody and I found out on Mother's Day 2009 that we will be having a baby! We woke up around 5am that morning because we were so excited that we might possibly be pregnant. So I took the test, but I was too nervous to watch, so I asked Cody if he would. Meanwhile, I went back to the bedroom and counted down the minutes. After time was up I saw Cody go into our guest room, and he came back holding a gift and said, Happy Mother's Day Mommy! (He made me a homemade card with my Cuddlebug too! It was adorable:) I was shocked! We had been trying for awhile, and I had just had some blood work completed for possible infertility issues, but God answered loud and clear... We are having a baby!

We were so excited and wanted to tell our parents quickly but there were two problems: My parents were in England visiting my sister, and Cody's parents were in Alabama for Cody's brother's college graduation. So we waited 2 weeks for everything to settle down and we gave my parents a picture book, and Cody's parents a mini scrapbook which contained a poem that we had written, and these pictures. They were both special moments!

I have not felt terrible through the pregnancy. I've been extremely tired with waves of nausea here and there. The worst I felt so far was when we were on vacation, but even that wasn't too bad! Cody has already been so supportive and caring. He's going to be a great dad! The baby is due January 16, 2010. Today I am 12 weeks pregnant and we are going to the doctor's at 2pm to hear the heartbeat! We are nervous (that everything is OK) and excited! Please pray that the baby is growing correctly and healthy!
