We made a BABY!


I have been hounded at work, and by others to start a blasted blog. And now that we have some baby news for people to keep up with, I have finally caved! Ty and I are expecting a wee little one at the end of April. Right now, the wee little one is about the size of a sesamee seed. Now I have to wonder, why in the world something that itty bitty in my belly, can make me feel ultra ew all over?? Doesn't seem fair. Tyler is very excited about becoming a daddy. I am sure he is extra excited for my balloning body, mood swings and swollen ankles, that i will soon be sporting in the next eight months ;). I have to send a saving grace card to my dear friend Rachel. She set me up with a killer supply of Preggie Pops, that help so much with the morning sickness! (which by the way, is a decieving name, cause morning sickness doesn't just last in the morning...it happens all day.)
Another thanks needs to go out to Mindy, a friend at my work, who announced she was having a baby at the beginning of last week. When I heard the news, it reminded me that I was late...which prompted us to take the blessed pregnancy test. So a big shout out to her!
I really haven't been too sick, which is lucky. I have only thrown up twice (both yesterday) and I usually make it through the day, without getting too tired. Tyler and I both feel really lucky that we were able to start having a kid so quickly! We feel very ready to take on the challenges that lie ahead- to learn from them, and grow from them as people, and in the gospel, and in our lives.
Wish us luck!

Congratulations! I swear I see you as the same "little girl" as you were when I joined the Newman family ten years ago. It is exciting to watch you grow, and I know you will be a wonderful mommy.

Congrats!! I have to admit... The night after I called your mom to watch my kids I had a very vivid dream that you were pregnant. I intended to mention it to your mom but didn't. WEIRD!!!
