We are excited to begin our family's blog with some good news...we are expecting! You read it right. Last Monday, December 29th, Susan took a home pregnancy test, and it came up positive. We were reluctant to believe it, mostly because it happened so quickly and she had taken a test a week or so earlier (when we first thought we might be pregnant) and it read negative. So we retested - three more times. After that, we decided we better just believe the tests.
We called our family immediately and shared the news. We shared it with most of our church family at the New Year's party. We scheduled the first doctor's visit for Tuesday, January 6th (yesterday).
Now that we have heard it from the doctor, it is time for our online announcement. So far, everything is normal, and the baby is due on August 28th, which means she is in her 6th week (day 5) . Susan's next appointment is on February 10th. Hopefully we will be able to hear the baby's heart beat by then!

I am so excited for you guys! Love you and will be praying for all of you!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!! It's so exciting when you see the positive pregnancy test! I couldn't believe it at first either. You will be having your baby about a month after we have ours! How fun! We got married within a week of each other and we're having babies around the same time as well! I just made it through the first trimester and I was soooooooooo thankful to be out of it. I had "all day" sickness and major fatigue and now I'm having headaches everyday. It's not fun but I remind myself that it's for a good cause so I smile and bear it. Congratulations guys! I look forward to reading your blog and hearing about the excitement!
