Soon to be Three!

Welcome to our blog! Kyle and I are SO excited to announce that we will be welcoming a third member to our family this August! My official due date is August 2nd. I have decided to create this blog (well, for one, to keep up with my sister) :), but so you can follow along in our journey of pregnancy and birth of our new baby.

I am currently 14 weeks along, and I am feeling MUCH better than I was a few weeks ago.
We found out in November (on the 30th), that we were expecting. I was not feeling quite right, so I decided to pick up a home pregnancy test when I was in Wal-Mart picking up some groceries. When I got home a took it, it was positive right away. Being me, I have to be 100% positive, so I drove to Walgreens and picked up two more :) Those were both positive too! I told Kyle when he got home from work, and he was in shock, but very excited also.

I went to the doctor the next day to take a pregnancy test there, and that was yet again, positive. So now that I was 120% sure, I believed it :) Within the next few weeks, I began feeling VERY nauseous, and could only eat oranges and bread. My appetite has thankfully returned and I am back to eating normally. For those of you that know me, I am a choc-o-haulic. I love chocolate more than anything! But, with this baby, I have had NO desire to eat chocolate what-so-ever. It is so weird what your body does when your pregnant!! With my appetite and energy returning, I am expecting to enjoy this second trimester more than the first, and be excited about the journey that is still to come!
