Yes, we're expecting!

That's right, you read it correctly! We are expecting our first baby! We are surprised, excited, shocked, and nervous all at the same time.

It's still early, but, we wanted to share the exciting news with our friends and family. As of today we are 9 weeks and 2 days pregnant! We actually found out that we were pregnant on September 11, 2008 when I came home with several pregnancy tests. We had several exciting and fun filled football weekends ahead of us and I needed to know. There was no question, but Ed insisted that I take another test just to be sure. We made our first appointment with my Dr. on September 12th where they confirmed that we were going to have a little one. We were so excited, but hated that we could not share with anyone. We kept the news to ourselves for several weeks ... that has been the hardest part!


Our first ultrasound was October 2, 2008! It was so amazing to see such a little thing, heart beating strong, on the screen that would eventually become our little one. She confirmed that our due date would be around May 18, 2009. Ed and I were finally ready to tell everyone the great news and spent the next several days, Ocotober 2nd-5th, driving all over Georgia telling the future grandparents and aunts. They were all very excited for us, which seemed to help with the shock that was still setting in ... it was a great weekend!

So far the pregnancy hasn't been too bad ... keeping my fingers crossed. I have not been sick, just very tired and a little sick to my stomach feeling. Hopefully that will pass in the next few weeks. Wish us luck- I'm still not really sure what to expect at this time! We promise to keep everyone updated on the website as to all of the happenings for Baby Lash!
