We're having a baby!!

Wow, are we old enough and mature enough to have a baby?!? We think so! I got my first positive pregnancy test on September 16, 2010. Of course I took 4 or 5 others in the next few days, just to make sure! We had our first visit to the doctor the week of October 11th and sure enough, they confirmed the pregnancy! Our original plan was to wait until Thanksgiving when all of the would be grandparents were together and share our news. But once we saw this little picture and heard our baby's heartbeat, we had to tell someone!!


November 10th was our 12 week appointment and all looked good so we went public with our news!                                                         
                                                                                              



Next was our 18 week appointment.  Again, everything looked good.  The doctor said either our due date is wrong or we caught the baby at the end of a growth spurt because the baby was measuring 10 days ahead of schedule! Our baby is already advanced :O)                                                     

They were also able to tell the sex, which we were dying to find out, BUT we wanted them to write it down and seal it so we could open it on       Christmas morning!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
Well Christmas morning FINALLY came and we were able to open the envelope to see what our little one was going to be...                                                                                                                               


It's a BOY!!!!

Our Wedding Day ~ July 26th, 2008  Sandals Grande Antigua


We decided to go against tradition and have a destination wedding!  We wouldn't have done it any other way, however our guests would like to disagree.  Almost all 20 of our guests had some kind of ridiculous travel disaster happen on the way to Antigua, on the way home, or both!  All of the chaos made for many stressful hours, and in some cases, days, but in the end everyone arrived safe and sound and just in time to celebrate with us on our wedding day!  And everyone eventually made it back home as well.
