I love surprises…

January 7th, 2008

It may be about time I let you all in on a little secret.  Have you all noticed that there are a lot of pregnancies around you, or is it just me?  My best friend is pregnant, my very dear friend is pregnant, my sister-in-law is pregnant and my neighbor is pregnant.  That’s a lot of pregnancies surrounding one person, don’t you think?

Especially since I got pregnant before all of them.  Well, at least by a little bit.   (in my sister-in-law’s case, I am due one day ahead of her.)

I am twelve weeks pregnant and thought it was finally time to share with all of you the exciting news.  I am due on July 20th, which is my Mom’s birthday.  I’m more than just a little excited to be sharing with you about this exciting addition, not just because it’s an exciting addition, but because pregnancy can be pretty consuming in life in general and not blogging about what is really on my mind can lead to a pretty boring blog for my readers.

But now, it’s out in the open!

I am pregnant!

and so excited!

And now I can blog about it!  Here’s proof that I’m pregnant since most people think I am lying.  (you know who you are)

Exhibit A:

The positive tests taken on November 13th.

Exhibit B:
 

The sister talking to my belly.  (which is typically a tell tale sign that someone is pregnant in my family.)

What’s that?  Are you saying I look a little large for being 11 weeks pregnant in that picture? 

Oh, that’s because we are having twins.

Meet Exhibit C (scientifically known as Baby A, but emotionally known as OMG! I love that little baby twin in my belly.):

Baby A

and Exhibit D (scientifically known as Baby B but emotionally known as OMG! I love that little baby twin in my belly.):

Baby B

The cutest "exhibits" I’ve ever seen, thankyouverymuch.

We are over the moon.  There are no other words.

    How sweet! I have twins that are going to be 15 in March, the time sure does fly by! I have fraternal boy/girl twins and there is something so special about their relationship. It is so miraculous, although their older brother didn’t think so, LOL. I wish you the best of health and the sweetest life. Thank you for blogging and letting us stalk you!
