It Happened :)
Well, it all started on Friday evening and hasn't stopped since. I have been growing and growing and growing! I now have to wear this nifty thing called a Bella Band to hold my pants up, because I can't fasten them on their own any longer! This, lucky for me, is the first real "pregnancy" breakthrough I have had and I am excited! I will post pictures about it tomorrow, but until then, it will be left up to your imagination!

Which Team?
The countdown has begun! 23 days until we find out which team we are on! YAY! After we find out, we are heading to Babies 'R Us to pick one of the two!

T.G.I.F.
Currently: 17 weeks, 3 days, 159 days remaining.
This week hasn't been nearly as long as last week, but it is still dragging and I am glad it is almost over!
I had my monthly doctor's appointment this past week - everything is great! I got to hear the heartbeat again, it was slower this time than it has been, but I chalked it up to being an early appointment (8:00 a.m.) So far, the heart beat has been anywhere from 145-164, and the old wives tale says that points to a girl. Fingers crossed! We also have our BIG ultrasound appointment scheduled for Friday, June 13 and Aaron and I are both taking a half day to enjoy the afternoon with some shopping after we find out who we are having. Of course, I want a girl and Aaron wants a boy, but either way we will be happy! Also, I have been feeling some slight movement down-there, but nothing like a kick or anything. The best way to describe it is it feels like bubble popping my belly. Not a flutter, not a gassy feeling, but bubbles. I can't wait until it is a kick, then this whole pregnancy thing will seem more real to me!
On another note, I will post some Baby Bump Pictures as soon as I get them loaded. Though, I am lucky and tall, I really don't show anything, yet.
Sorry this was such a boring post that lacked the humor - I promise as soon as I wake up, it will be good.

Start Spreadin' the news!
I'M PREGNANT!
Due Date: October 22, 2008
Currently: 16 Weeks, 1 day, 167 days left
I can officially post this without fearing I will shock people that do not know, in them, I mean work! I just got out of my bosses office and he told me he already knew! Same goes with my office manager! Here is the story as how they found out!
On my first day of work, March 17th, my office manager and another assistant took me out to lunch. While at the restaurant someone I knew sat down next to me. As soon as I saw her, I prayed that she didn't know it was me and I feared that she knew. Well, she did know it was me and yes, she knew! As I sit there with my new fellow employees, she says "hi -at this point I am trying to get her to shut-up, discreetly of course - Congratulations, how are you feeling" yaddi yaddi ya, and I still sit there hoping that no one heard what this woman just said, I think I am in the clear, for the next two months anyway!
I finally become comfortable enough to talk to someone about my great news, I say to her "I'M PREGNANT!" and she said I thought so, I heard that woman your first day! I didn't want everyone at work to know until I felt I was ready because I didn't want to be that girl that starts a new job and then tells them right away that she is pregnant! That’s how my story unfolded, I became that girl when I told the office manager and she informed me that she knew the first day I started.
Along with those select few knowing, the girl I sit next to, I find out she is also pregnant with her first, and that, guess what, IS DUE THE EXACT SAME DAY AS MYSELF! I just can’t get over that and I find it great that we can really relate. Imagine the stories she and I share everyday! I think the whole thing is funny, but I still can’t look people in the face around here without laughing.
