Our story

I have never really had a blog before. Its kinda cool to write all of your feelings down. My husband and I just found out... well I guess we have known for 11 weeks, that we are expecting our first child. We will find out what it is in about 5 weeks which is so cool! Well I guess I can tell you my husband and my story. I met Ben 6 years ago at The hights community center. We started dating a couple months later. We dated for 3 years before he asked me to marry him in late June. My mom, sisters, and I worked very hard for a month and Ben and I got married on July 29th, 2006. We were married and I'm not saying that it wasn't hard but these last three years have been amazing. I have gotten to know an amazing guy. He has stood by my side through thick and thin. I am amazed at how God worked in giving me this guy that I can say is my other half. He completes me.

Anyway, We found out on November 22, 2008. I knew before then but that is when we took the test. It was so awesome to see that we were finally getting our dream of starting our family. the funny thing is that it only took a month. We got health insurance on November 1st and started trying right away thinking that it would take a couple of months. We were pregnant on the 4th of November, although we didn't know it at the time.

My body has changed so much. I am starting to show which is so cool. About a week ago I started feeling the baby inside me. It feels like butterflies are in my stomach. It is so cool to already have bonded with this little one inside me.

So today I am 14 weeks and 1 day. I am in my second trimester and I need to start on the room. Right now we have done nothing except buy a rocking chair. Ben's dad has a girlfriend and that girlfriends daughter is going to give us a crib and everything so we don't even have to buy it except for a new mattress.

Well anyway that is about it.
