ok, for a whole month I’ve been keeping a secret and now that i’ve told practically the whole world… lj needs to know too. :)

Dennis and I are having a baby. :) I’m 8 weeks 4 days pregnant. Can you believe it? I’m still having trouble believing it myself!

It’s part of the reason we got married so soon. actually, it’s the bulk of the reason why. that and the fact that we can’t afford a big ceremony now anyway. this house has vacuumed our bank accounts clean.

we had our first ultrasound yesterday. it was so cool. I saw a little white blob inside what i guess was my uterus but i wasn’t sure if it was alive cuz it wasn’t moving and the nurse was stone faced for a while. then all of a sudden she zooms in on it and says “here’s the heartbeat” and we all saw this little flickering light in the middle of the white blob. WOW. then she turned up the speakers and we could hear it! it was going 167 beats a minute. I was really surprised to see how fast it was.

dennis was “blown away” as he put it. now i think it’s sunk in for him. Me on the other hand, i still can’t beleive that little person is in me. i don’t feel anything!!! i’ve had some pain, some restlessness, sometimes i feel queezy but that only lasts a short time. nothing else.

we’re having trouble scanning the u/s pictures today. hopefully will have it soon on my site so ya’ll can see too.

we’re going to dennis’ aunts house for a couple hours then it’s work for him, and miami for me to my grandmother’s house.

merry christmas!
