Our next appointment is July 26, and we're hoping we'll meet with the Dr. this time and be able to hear the baby's heartbeat. Oh it is all so exciting! We're going to be parents! I think we'll be great parents, especially Jeff, he is irresistible, good with kids, and I'm so excited to see if he'll cry when he holds our little one in his arms for the first time.
(I've never seen him cry, so I'm banking on it)
We've told both of our families now, which is why we're now just writing about it, even though we've known since Sunday June 6. We didn't want anyone to feel left out, and we wanted to wait until we went to the Dr. Of course, we technically haven't yet, the fact that I am feeling all the symptoms of pregnancy I am thinking I still am. :)
So my wonderful blogger friends and family I would like to officially tell you that:
I am Pregnant!
11 weeks, still in the first agonizing trimester, I've been sick, nauseated, vomited?, dizzy, weak, and exhausted... oh boy! :) I am hoping that after 12 weeks (by the book) I will feel much much better, almost normal, but we'll see, I've heard the horror stories!
The APX wives and mothers have been so understanding and helpful to me, even though I am unable to have my own mom or sister here with me to give me advice and encouragement, I have had Tara and Cindy by my side encouraging me along the way. And of course, my husband has been a Knight in Shining Armor throughout all of this too... I thought I loved him before, but he has only proven to me that I have lots more to love him for, each and every day he lets me know that he loves me and that I am worth all the washing dishes, cleaning the house, putting up with the vomiting, the complaining, the depression, the nagging, etc... he is the biggest and most deserving sweetheart!
Also, I would like to thank my brother, Travis, I am so glad that he is out here too, it is so nice to have family here to be my support, to cook when I don't want to, to clean up when I don't have any energy, to buy my cravings when everything makes me want to puke... really I cannot do it without these two wonderful men, and without the friends that I have made out here this summer, Thank you!
I want to add, thank you to those of you who have known about my pregnancy and kept it on the down low till Jeff and I wanted to announce it... I know it is hard to keep an amazing and wonderful announcement like this under wraps, but we totally appreciate it. Furthermore, (yeah I feel like I am writing a novel) to those of you who have been genuinely excited for us and express it in your voice, I really do appreciate it, because there have been only a few who have sounded almost disappointed or non excited at all on our behalf and it is really disappointing. So thank you for being excited and supportive!
