With a little hesitation...

Hello again! Well, as previously discussed, Frank and i are looking forward to some exciting changes heading our way throughout the next few months. In a brief way, I will do my best to fill you in...
As life would have it, our plans have once again changed and the things we had set out to accomplish this coming summer are going to have to take a back seat to a new little blessing that should be arriving sometime around mid-june. (give or take a couple weeks) Yes that's right folks, Frank and I are expecting a little bebe. Word of this comes after making some plans for me to FINALLY finsih my bachelor's degree this coming summer, and try to fit in some traveling before we strted our family. Well, obviosuly, that's not going to happen now. :P

we've known for a few weeks now, and have been reluctant to inform anyone just yet of our exciting news, but then I took a trip to the doctor and they informed me that at that time I was already just about through the first trimester and that everything looked good. So we decided it was probably safe to start sharing our joy. So here I'm thinking I've made out pretty well the first ten weeks being pregnant, 'cuz I didn't even know I was pregnant! Then, today, I headed off to a different "fetal specialist" to do a special ultrasound to make sure all is well, and the ultasound specialist then informs me that my doctor had misjudged my due date by nearly a month!! Hold the phone! A month! That's HUGE in the pregnancy world!!! What the heck? Here I am thinking we're nearly in the clear for the "scary" part, all of my fears and anxieties could be laid to rest, and then BAAAAAM! she hits me with the news that I am only 8 weeks. After that sobering comment, she did go on to say that all appears well, we could hear the heart beat racing and everything seems perfect. That was great news to hear even though the IDIOT DOCTOR i had been seeing was so off. Needless to say, I'm going to be seeing someone new! I've just been worried and hopeful that we will make it through these early stages ok, and here I thought we were through it. For those of you who have babies already, you might think i'm overdoing it by worrying, but for some reason, that's all i've been doing. I do however feel much better after seeing that little life inside of me and hearing the heart. It's a beautiful thing! Frank was unable to make today, but that worked out to his benefit because when we go back to do the 12 week ultrasound we thought we were doing today, the baby will actually almost look like a baby instead of a little cashew looking thing. :)

In the mean time, with all sincerity, we are hoping that all is well and growing strong in my tummy, but we also know that Father in Heaven knows the end from the beginning and so we turn our hearts and our trust to HIM that all will go as he has planned.

OH! and just for the record... FRANK IS SOOOOOOO EXCITED TO BE A DAD, AND I am so excited to be a mom...Hopefully no one is offended by what seems to be my lack of excitement, I'm sorry if you are,It's not that we are not excited, I am just a little worried I guess. I've never been a worrier, but all that has gone out the window since the moment I found out there was a life created and growing inside of me!
