Exciting News!

Well I guess it's finally time to break the news . . . We are having a baby! Exciting and very scary at the same time! I am 17 weeks and feeling good now. I was a little sick at the beginning and very out of energy but I really didn't have it too bad so I am thankful for that. We had our third doctors appointment yesterday and got to hear the heartbeat again which was comforting. For some reason I always get nervous that something is going to be wrong so it is such a relief when the appt is over. I guess that's why it's taken me so long to post this. Please don't tell me I'm going to be an overprotective, nerve-racked mom! We get to have another ultrasound next month to find out what it is. I'm so excited to see the baby again since our first ultrasound looks like a little bug laying on it's back. And we are both dying to know what it is. Justin is confident it is a boy because he says he needs a little "huntin' buddy". I really don't have an incling either way and don't really have a preference although I would love to doll a little girl up. Pregnancy has been an interesting journey so far and I'm just glad I'm over the first part of it. The first part seemed to take an eternity and it just seemed that you feel crappy and your body is doing all these weird things for no reason. I'm enjoying it more now and it feels like things are progressing at a little faster pace. Although I'm really ready to be out of the in between stage where people aren't sure if you're pregnant or if you've just been eating too many twinkies. I've been feeling "it" move for the past few days which is a cool but weird feeling. It's still weird to think that there is something alive and moving inside me! Anyways stay tuned for pictures of baby Whatcott next month!
