SURPRISE!!!

So I wanted to start by saying thanks to everyone who has been praying about the opportunity I mentioned in my last post. God, however, had other plans and allowed that opportunity to fall through. We were upset at first. We were really hoping things would work out but God's plans are better than ours and not long after he said "I have something better" he showed us that something better.

I've waited to post this so that I could go ahead and let you all know that my husband and I are expecting a sweet little blessing in October of this year =D That's right.... WE'RE PREGNANT!!!

We were just as surprised as I'm sure some of you are but we are thrilled nonetheless. I would've posted on here sooner but things, as I'm sure many of you can imagine, have been a little crazy and a lot busy since finding out. I have had more doctors appointments than I would like to have had due to some problems I was having and I'm learning quickly that this doctor will probably be my new best friend by the end of these nine months.

Anyway, we are super excited to start this chapter of our lives together. The gym took a little bit of a back burner position once I found out because we didn't know whether or not my doctor was going to let me continue working out the way that I have been. Much to my surprise everything seems to point to a healthy pregnancy (other than my diabetes which I am now checking several times a day), so I can start working out again and I can't wait. I have missed it. Now if I can just get my husband to calm down and understand that doc says I'm okay, so I'm okay. He has been so super protective since we found out:) It's hilarious.

So now we wait. Wait for the next appointment. Wait for the next ultrasound. Get everything ready and wait some more. Everyone keeps saying these nine months will be over before I know it but so far it's passing at a normal rate.... oh well.

A new journey is beginning and I think I need to get all the sleep I can before it truly does.

Goodnight!
