Big News!!

Hey everyone!!  I know, I know, it's been forever since I updated our blog!!  Tyler and I have had quite a whirlwind of the fall, and just when we thought we were settling into a routine, something amazing happened to us.


On January 4, it was confirmed that Tyler and I are going to be parents!!  We had an idea that we were pregnant since about Christmas, but didn't share any of those ideas with anyone.  We told a couple of people that we were going to start trying for a baby, but never in our wildest imagination did we believe it would happen so fast!!


We had our first doctor's appointment this past Tuesday, January 25.  Our doctor confirmed that I am nine weeks pregnant, and that our baby bean is growing, and has a strong heart beat.  We are so excited to begin this journey, especially when really good friends of ours just adopted their first baby on January 11!


Overall I have been feeling pretty good.  I have had some days where I haven't felt my best, and I have battling a head cold the past couple of days.  Overall though, no really weird cravings, or sickness.


I will keep everyone updated about baby news, and I will try my best to keep this updated more as we go through our pregnancy, and then when we welcome our baby bean into the world!  Our baby bean is expected to join our family on September 1, my cousin Steven's birthday.
