This was a wonderful busy winter for us! We relaxed for a week in Cabo, enjoyed the holiday in MN with family, Steven took the fire district lieutenant exam (and ranked 3rd!) and we're of course already looking ahead to vacations, trips and house projects for this coming spring and summer. Alas, the DINK (dual income no kids) life will come to an end... mid September 2009. Yep, we're expecting!
Of course we're very excited. It's been fun telling friends and family as well as Steven's fire family too. I've been feeling great. Our due date is around Sept 16? 18? Something like that. No, we DO NOT plan to find out if it's a boy or girl. That's one of God's great surprises for life so we look forward to meeting our child this fall! We'll post our ultrasound pictures here shortly and the heartbeat recording (our midwifes are great to work with) as soon as we figure out how to convert and post that type of file.
YEAH!! Congratulations! We are truly happy for you both and can't wait to meet the little one. Keep us updated on how you are feeling and if you have any cool food cravings like ... spaghetti o's. That is awesome, I just remember craving salt and more of my usual cravings like PIZZA.
ReplyDeleteOh and good call on the waiting to find out if it is a boy or girl, what an awesome surprise, we are so excited for you.

My love to you and give each other a big hug from me!--No I will not say anything to Grdpa and Lael---actually I read your "SHHHHH" email first and then had to find the real news! Steph
