Our family is growing!

Once again it's been forever since I have posted anything and it's not like I haven't had anything to blog about because I do! I think most everyone knows but we have a BABY on the way!! My due date is September 7th and I will be 12 weeks on Tuesday. I am so happy and I get so excited when I think I am going to be a mommy! Sometimes I feel like I am not actually pregnant because there is no tummy yet but then I know I normally don't feel nasueas and so lethargic so something has to be going on! It is just an amazing thing a baby can develop and grow inside of you!

Jeff and I decided we were ready to start a family and Heavenly Father must have agreed because it seemed to happen the instant we made that decision haha. I wasn't expecting to get pregnant that fast and I actually thought something else was wrong me and that I wasn't pregnant! I found out the beginning of January and was so stunned when the test said PREGNANT. I secretly was hoping that it would but I didn't want to be disappointed so I kept telling myself no, you're not pregnant. I was happy to prove myself wrong!

Jeff is so excited as well and I can't wait to see him as a daddy. I know he will be a great father and I am so thankful that I have him as we embark on this new adventure in our lives. He has been working so hard for us so we can provide for this little one! He has been so supportive of me too and loving as I go through my not so wonderful days. Having a strong gag reflux himself, he has been so sweet to still come in and rub my back as I throw up or deal with me throwing up in bags as we drive in the car. He just turns his back so he can't see what comes out! I love him and appreciate him so much! Luckily I have been starting to feel a little bit better so hopefully those not so wonderful days will start to dwindle.

I feel so blessed to have this opportunity to carry this, our very own baby. I pray everyday that it will grow and be healthy and that I may be prepared to take care of this little spirit!

Whether it's a girl or a boy we will be happy! I just can't wait to hold my baby in my arms!!!
