12 Weeks!

Well if you do not already know by now, Shane and I are expecting our first baby on Aug 20, 2012! I was worried about forgetting all the important dates and feelings in the next couple months, so I decided this would be a good time to start a blog! So we will be able to look back and remember the excitement of our first child! :) This will also let our family and friends know exactly what is going on in our lives since we sometimes forget to keep in touch with our busy lives.

I turned 23 yesterday and today was the first time we got to hear baby's heart beat and it was absolutely amazing! Best birthday present ever! Words can hardly begin to describe the absolute awe we felt at hearing our baby's heart beating for the first time!!! Most exciting day of our lives to date! Next check up is March 6 and we will get to hear the heart beat again. THEN APRIL 5th is our ultrasound! It will be a loooooong 2 month wait!

I am going to try to encourage Shane to post on here once in awhile but no one hold their breath while waiting! It probably will not happen! Hehe

The doctor said I've gained 4 lbs and I can feel every pound of it! My jeans are squeezing my poor baby! I need to invest in more stretchy pants!
