I'm Gonna Be a Mommy!!

I bet many of you never thought this day would come.....frankly I never thought it would come.  Mostly because I don't really like kids that much and have grown quite accustomed to my freedom.  But...I'm not getting any younger and the time felt right.



I was pregnant for a good 10 weeks before we told anyone, so it was hard not to spill the beans at certain times, but also fun to have our own little secret. 


My mom's birthday was June 8, so a little onesie saying, "I wear pink for my Grandma" was our gift to her and our way of telling the family we were pregnant. 

That night we had Kyle's parents come over to give his dad his birthday gift which was the next day.  His was a onesie that said, "Grandpa's little fishing buddy,"  because we couldn't find one that said golf buddy. 

So as of right now, 20 June 2012, I am 12 weeks along and due January 1, 2013.  I have not been nauseous one bit or even felt like throwing up.  During week 5 & 6 I was extremely tired and I tend to take a lot more naps these days, but I have the summer off of school so I have all the time I want to take naps.

Congrats Cheryl! I know what you mean about not liking kids :) Motherhood is an incredible journey. I'm excited for you. I'm reading a book right now called "The Gift of Giving Life" by LDS authors. It's about the divine nature of pregnancy and childbirth. I definitely recommend it! http://thegiftofgivinglife.com/

Cheryl, so happy for you and Kyle! Trust me, I like my kids WAY more than I like any other kids. :) You will be a great mommy and I wish we lived near by to see your belly and baby grow! And super jealous you haven't been sick at all...
