A new trend for me

I decided to start this blog as a sort of therapy, to get my throughts, stress, and fears off my chest. I admit I never really thought about blogging before, but most of my firends do this now and I thought, why not?! I have been married to the most amazing man for 6 months today! I got to have my fairytale wedding and my real life Prince Charming. My parents and friends worked so hard to give me my perfect wedding and I will forever be grateful! Well about 2 months after the wedding, the Sunday after Thanksgiving to be precise, we found out we were expecting. We were both shocked because I had no clue!!! We had been trying for only a month to get pregnant and I guess we were both shocked it happened so quickly. That next Monday I found a new Doctor and made an appointment to confirm the pregnancy. I was so nervous at that first appointment (for the most part because i was scared of needles and just KNEW they were going to take blood!) However, the only thing I had to do was the usual stuff and we got to meet our new Doctor that would help us bring our sweet baby into the world. Well to our relief the pregnancy was confirmed with a due date in the middle of AUGUST! Sitting in the room waiting for our doctor was stressful too! I had never had a male OB before so ofcourse I was uncomfortable!!! But then in walked Dr. Joe and just the big smile on his face ahd me totally at ease. He had delivered a lot of my friends children, and they had given him rave reviews! He was so nice and vrey professional! I was 2 weeks along when I found out and I am now 2 days away from being 18 weeks! Time has really gone by fast and it is hard to believe I will be a mommy in just 4 1/2 months! I think the most precious thing I have ever heard was getting to hear my baby's heartbeat at the last two doctor visits, both times he/she had a strong 160 hb and of course to me that is screaming LITTLE GIRL =). The most precious thing I have seen, besides my precious baby in the ultrasound photos ofcourse, would have to be the look on my husbands face the first time we heard the heartbeat. (starting to cry while writing this...love those hormones) I truely could not be blessed with a better family or friends, they ahve supported us through everything and without them I have no clue where we would be. We will find out the sex of the baby on the 30th of this month and I must say I am so anxious! There are no girls at all on Bradley's side of the family, so I am kind of pulling for a little girl! In all truth, the sex does not matter, we just pray God blesses us with a happy and healthy baby. I found a few weeks ago, that I would not be going through this long, hot summer being pregnant alone! One of mine and Bradley's very good friends called me to let me know she and her husband were execting just 4 days after ours was due! So Congratulations go out to Esther and David Bledsoe!! Pregnancy has been an interesting journey so far and feeling th baby move has been the best part yet!!! I am anxious to see what is to come in the next few months! God Bless this life he has given us!
