Exciting News!!

Sorry that it has been so long since my last post!! Things have been crazy busy around here! We have some exciting news..... WE ARE HAVING A BABY!

Baby H, as we will call it, is due to make his/her appearance June 16, 2011!

Matt and I are beyond thrilled and are looking forward to getting to know this little creation over the next 6 1/2 months! I will be 12 weeks on Thursday and we have an appointment on December 6th to hear the heartbeat and see baby H. We are hoping that we can use this blog as a way to keep our family and friends updated that may not get to see us too often. We will keep you updated and try to post pictures from time to time!

We told my extended family at our Thanksgiving dinner using this poem:

Hey everyone its us, Guess who!
Letting you know that our family grew!
And it’s possible that it could become a zoo!

We are excited and we know you are too,
So go ahead and shout a big Wah-Hoo!
June 16th is the day we are due!

We are ready for something new!
And are looking forward to hearing a coo.
But somehow we don’t think we are prepared to handle the poo.

As far as the hue…
we won’t know for a month or two.
We are guessing team blue, but what about you?

Once the family was told, we made the huge announcement on Facebook. My mom made sugar cookies that look like baby carriages in pink and blue and I brought those to work today to make the announcement to people who hadn't heard. Its definitely an exciting time!!

So to answer some of the questions we've been getting:
-We will be finding out if it is a girl/boy.
-We do have names picked out for a girl and a boy.
-I've been feeling great, no sickness at all!
-We found out we were pregnant the day after we got back from our Disney vacation. So we were pregnant while at Disney, but didn't know it. And yes, we did ride a TON of roller coasters. Baby H. will not have motion sickness that's for sure!!
-No weight gain as of weight (am actually down about 3 pounds), but my pants won't button, so there is something definitely growing in there!

We look forward to sharing our journey with you!!
