Wonderful News!

I can't believe it's been so long.  I have my food blog I update regularly....but I have seemed to totally neglect my poor PINK blog!  I have been running crazy busy this year.  Time has just seemed to fly right by.  It's now the first day of June, but it's been a wild ride so far.


Back in January the hubs and I took a quick trip to CA.  His uncle had been very sick, but we found out he was dying of cancer.  We took a little of M's vacation time....and my off week....and headed out to San Diego!  We ended up having a wonderful time, despite the sad circumstances. We stayed in Ocanside...and it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been! M got to spend a few nice evenings with his family.  He ended up with lots of wonderful old pics of his great grandparents.  That alone made the trip worth it all for him :)  It was only 4 days...but it was the most wonderful trip we have ever taken together (for more than one reason)!

We finally got back home and got back to our normal *boring* lives.  I had been back at work for a few weeks.  I had been feeling just horrible.  I had been sick at my stomach and tired all the time.  Some of my sweet friends kept nagging me that I needed to take a pregnancy test.  HaaaHaaa!  Yah right....me pregnant....no way!  What famous last words!  
I finally broke down.  On the way home from work I stopped and picked up a test.  Oh, and let me tell you how embarrassing that was...!  I'm a married woman and still blush at the thought of buying one.  lol
Well, after one short minute......and many, MANY second looks........it was POSITIVE!!  
I can't believe that we are going to have a baby!  I still could not believe it was true.  I even left my house and went to visit my mom at her work.  She did a quick ultrasound and sure enough...there was a tiny little yolk sac.  What would eventually become my sweet baby :) 

It was the best Valentine's Day present I could have ever given my H!  It has been four months since I found out.  I am nearing 21 weeks.  Pregnancy surely has it's ups and downs.  I have worked through the morning sickness (which mine was all day long) and still struggle with overwhelming fatigue.  But it's been one of the strangest.....and sweetest experiences of my life.  I can't believe I'm half way there.  On October 14th we should be expecting our first baby.....a precious baby BOY!  

M's early Valentine's Day present.  It was a small glove and baseball.  I left a note inside the glove that said "Our sweet baby will be here in October"!  His other coaches helped me set up the surprise after practice on a cold Friday afternoon :)
