I am going to be a MOM!

 Today I am 11 weeks Pregnant. I found out on November 16th with a little faded blue line and then a few hours later with 4 different pregnancy tests. Let's just say I was a little anxious to find out!

Was it planned? Well not right NOW, but yes I was planning on trying for a little squirt in May. So yeah.... it is a little sooner than expected but we are SO EXCITED!

When we found out we thought it was only fair that we keep the secret until we were able to tell the In-laws face to face in New York... That would be Christmas. I AM SOOOO NOT A SECRET KEEPER... well, at least not when it is about myself! I had to keep this HUGE thing a secret for 6 WHOLE WEEKs and it just about killed me! I had 5 family parties within this time and it was torture!

The worst part of it was being SO SICK and not being able to ask for advice or help and trying to act like nothing was wrong. I am way too big of a baby to be able to look okay when I am sick. My mom made me dinner one night and she made this delicious turkey casserole thing and I took two bites and started feeling sick and couldn't take another bite, I just played with it for a little bit and then snuck it on to Nate's plate. I felt so terrible because she totally just thought I didn't like her food! I ALWAYS like her food!

LIES LIES LIES.... I told SO many LIES to keep this baby a secret. I went to Disneyland with my mom and sister and I couldn't ride any of the big rides so I had to keep making things up! I told them I got food poisoning the night before and that I probably couldn't handle any "big" rides that day. I just knew they would figure it out but they were oblivious!

NOW that the secret is out, I am really happy and have so much support around me. So THANK YOU for your support with this pregnancy! I just pray this baby is healthy and that it is prepared to have me as their mom.
See you on July 24th Baby!!!

JUST A PREVIEW OF WHAT I MAY LOOK LIKE IN THE NEAR FUTURE....
