A Positively Yes!


Garrett and I are having a baby! I can't believe it! But this test and the doctor's test prove it! haha. The morning sickness that kicked in almost 2 weeks ago proves it too. :)
Here are some answers to your many many questions:):
1. Was it planned?
No, we weren't planning on having kids until Garrett was done or almost done with college. We believe that it was God's perfect timing, though, and are very grateful.
2. How far along are you?
Tomorrow I will be 8 weeks along. I was going to wait until I was closer to the second trimester to start telling people, but couldn't hold it in any longer!
3. When are you due?
I haven't had an official doctor given due date yet, but it should be around April 30th or May 1st.
4. Are you going to find out the sex of the baby?
Yes, I can not wait that long to start buying pink or blue clothes! :) I am not very patient with these things.
5. How have you been feeling? (why thank you for asking:) )
Morning sickness kicked in 2 weeks ago and is going on strong. I feel sick almost all day long and can't keep a lot of food down. The joy of pregnancy I guess. :)
6. What are your plans?
We aren't sure how everything will work out, but we are trusting that God will provide. Garrett is going to continue to go to school and work the job he has now. I am still looking for a job and am praying that I will have a way to earn money and stay with my baby. We will see how everything works out. :)
But, we are so excited and can't wait to be first time parents! We have been married for 3 years and feel that we are strong enough as a married couple to raise a child that will have a loving and godly home. We could use prayer as we embark on this very new journey! :)

Congratulations! Do you know we are due March 10? I'm so happy for you, and I know when I tell Ethan he'll be thrilled too.

If you are really sick and it's lasting all day you may find some interesting information at this link: http://www.hyperemesis.org/ I had hyperemesis with all my pregnancies and didn't feel like anyone understood how bad it was. I really hope you get feeling better soon, if you ever need someone to talk to feel free to email or call!

Thanks, Kimberly! We are so excited! Yes, I did know that you were due sometime in March! So happy for you both. I am sorry you have been so sick. I will check out that website. I don't think that I am too sick, but maybe just because I haven't experienced anything like this before.
