Thankful Thursday!


Yes, that's right! We're expecting!! We are so excited to see what God has in store for us during this wonderful journey. I know that many people have been praying for us and we wanted to express our thanks to everyone & thanks for adding us to your prayer lists! We are still in the "shocked & amazed" phase... I actually found out when I was at work. I was having a horrible day and it seemed like I couldn't keep up with my fast-paced floor. Towards the end of the day, I was having sharp pains in my stomach accompanied with an icky bloated/crampy feeling. I'm a patient of the Midwives at my hospital, so I just walked over to their office to get checked out, and sure enough I was pregnant! It was so hard for me to function through the rest of my shift, because I was already overwhelmed with my patients and now I had big news to share with Brian. I maintained my composure, and I told him that night when I got home from work. Needless to say, he was overjoyed! I had to take another pregnancy test when I got home, just to make sure.

Over the holiday weekend, we enjoyed sharing the good news with our family & friends. I really like to tell important news in person, so we made trips all over DFW to spread the news. I have my first appointment in the next couple of weeks and I can't wait!

Yay, congrats to you both! Happy Friday!

You better get to practicing your baking and cooking skills. The kiddos and their friends have MUCH respect for the mamas that can feed 'em more than boxed or canned foods! :)
