8 weeks and counting

No, its not alcohol. In order to maintain the facade of a non-pregnant woman, Michael refilled Amanda's drinks throughout the night at Kim's wedding. We hoped to fool the rest of the family by disguising her shirly temples as various mixed drinks. In addition, Amanda had to add extra material to her dress to make room for her baby-belly.

November 27th- 7 weeks Prego

Happy Thanksgiving!! Tomorrow we are 8 weeks!! I am in multiple layers, praying my mom doesn't suspect anything!! The nausea had just kicked in the week before and I'm trying very hard to not look too miserable!! Did I pull it off?....

My First BFP

Here is our first Big Fat Positive!!! I secretly tested upstairs while Michael was on the phone downstairs. Even though it was a bit early to test, I just had this feeling that we were expecting. The two lines popped up right away! I waited at the top of the stairs until Michael finished his phone call and asked him to come up. I took him into the bathroom and showed him the results. He said "are you kidding me?" with a huge smile and lots of excitement. "No" was my reply! "Well, come here" he said, and pulled me into his arms. We both stood there hugging for a moment, letting it all sink in. Needless to say, we were excited and nervous all at once!! I tested a second time, for good measure, and of course it confirmed "We've been blessed!"

October 25th- "3 weeks" Prego and clueless

Here we are at one of our favorite places on earth!! We had no idea that we were expecting!! We had Padre brain and spent the day running the bases and basking in the sun in center field!! Thank goodness I took advantage of the mini skirt....I'll probably have to bury it now!!
