Well, this is officially my first blogging attempt! I feel like I should start it off with "Dear Blog...", or "Dear Diary". That feels weird, too! The whole reason I started this blog was to be able to journal about all the fun that Andy and I are having. We tend to have some crazy adventures because we are moving around so much. So, I want to keep track of the good times we are having!
Right now, we are living in Arizona for the summer. We were in Oro Valley (Tucson), but just moved to Yuma today. To be completely honest, I DISLIKE ARIZONA! It is hot and gross and brown. The upside is that the people are nice and work is going really well. Andy and I are really enjoying work right now. We have really weird hours and we work with some difficult people sometimes, but it is definitely worth it.
I decided a few weeks ago (when I first made this blog) that I would want a blog when I got pregnant, so I could keep track of everything. That way I can keep family updated and compare for later pregnancies :) So, this bring me to my next point: I'M PREGNANT!!!!! We found out on Saturday, July 9th (the reason that this blog title is July 9). I haven't been to the doctor yet, so I guess things aren't officially official, but this blog is my way to tell someone the exciting news without spilling the beans to everyone yet!
So far, I haven't had tons of symptoms. I have been pretty nauseous lately, but it hasn't been too big of a deal yet. I have a feeling that once I get a little farther along I will see more symptoms. I didn't realize how little I know about pregnancy until a couple days ago. All of a sudden, I thought I have no idea what I am doing!!!! So, I went and bought the book "What to expect when you're expecting". I really like it. It's rather comforting for a first time pregnant lady!
Anyway, we are just so excited to be expecting! I have never seen Andy so excited as when I told him! He just kept saying, "We're having a baby"! I can't wait to be able to go to the doctor and get a due date and all that. Anyway, I think that's all I have to blog about right now. I feel so relieved that I can freely say that I AM PREGNANT on here!!! I am so looking forward to telling our families :)
I will comment on this, since it's the "official announcement." Don't worry, I'm pretty sure my crazy emotions are worse than what you are talking about right now. I cry when I am hungry, tired, sick, hot, uncomfortable,I think you get the point. Anyway, I was feeling VERY frustrated they wouldn't see me for a while either. I feel like there is so much going on, and I need to make sure it's normal!! For goodness sakes, don't they understand??
ReplyDeleteAbout the nausea, EAT!! Always keep your tummy full!! That's the only thing that ever helped me, and thankfully I never actually threw up! Although I think I am just one of the lucky ones. Hopefully it's like this with all my pregnancies! I am so excited for you Lesley!! Our babies will be the same age!! You actually are probably only a few weeks behind me!
Ohhh!!! Lesley!!! That is so exciting! I am so excited for you! I am glad Andy is so excited too! You guys are going to be great parents!!!
