BIG News!

Since my news was finally announced at work, I can tell the world that Kent and I are expecting a baby in late January!

As of today I am 13 weeks pregnant. At my 12 week appointment we got to hear the heartbeat (it was 155), but no ultrasound. Here is the 7 week picture of our little one:






We told our families about a month and a half ago. Both of our mother's birthdays are within 4 days of each other so it was natural to surprise them with a gift. Kent's mom had asked me to make a frame for Rhett (my nephew) so she could put his baby picture in it. She already had my niece's baby pictures in frames I had made hanging on the wall in her bedroom. Inside the frame I had written "You will have to make more room on your wall for another frame because WE ARE PREGNANT!" In the video you can see that she gets excited about the frame, but doesn't read what it says until a couple moments later.

The next video is of my family's reaction. It's pretty funny. We just put the picture of the sonogram in a frame as a gift for my Mom's birthday. She knew immediately what it was...my Dad, not so much. Later on he told me that at first he thought I had bought my Mom a star for her birthday. Then he thought I had obtained a copy of her sonogram when she was pregnant with me - because he says "who's sonogram is this?!?!" and then he says "what does this mean?!?!". The best thing was how how excited all my brothers were for us, that was unexpected.
