Life is a crazy thing...

Well this is our first blog…and I guess it is also more of a journal as well! We figured this would be another outlet to keep up with people…and just another thing to waste time on. ☺

Life has been going well, with a lot of ups and downs, but it wouldn’t make for a fun ride if it weren’t that way. At the beginning of the school year I sat in my principal’s office and discussed the upcoming school year. He asked about how Steven was doing in seminary and how our life was going. (He is a very caring and personable guy.) We proceeded to talk about children and us having them one day while I casually mentioned “Oh that’s a long way off for us.” Little did I know that I was probably already pregnant!! A couple months later I told my principal, “I need to talk with you for a minute,” I went on to tell him how life was a funny thing and that I spoke too soon about not having children for a while. I told him I was going to be a mom and that fortunately it would be happening around June 12th (school gets out June 6th)!!

So anyways, the news is true if you have or haven’t heard it! Steven and I are excepting a precious baby in June 2008. I am sorry if we could not tell you in person, but with technology these days there is no telling how fast news spreads!!

We are super excited to add this new joy and blessing to our lives, but also scared to death at the same time. I know God will provide for all our needs, but it is scary to think of all the “how’s!”

I am now a little over 12 weeks, almost done with the first trimester, Yay! And fortunately for me I feel like I am not the average pregnant woman, being that I have literally had no morning sickness. Thanks God! Just a little nausea and a lot of tiredness, so I am extremely thankful for that! In January we should be able to know the sex of our baby and that will be another crazy milestone.

Enough for now!
