The News

How do you tell the world about the second most significant event of your life?

I've been trying to answer that question for a couple weeks now. And that is precisely what has been keeping my blogging at bay. Sure the majority already know my big news but it is I who is having the hardest time realizing it is all REALLY happening.

For the passed 13 or so days I've done a lot of listening to others about this life altering event I am going through. I haven't been able to do much talking. Up until yesterday, anyways.

Up until yesterday I was spending 75% of my day sleeping and the other 25% balled up on the couch trying to keep my last few bites of food down. I was absolutely miserable thinking that I'm no where near ready for this and asking myself how am I ever going to make it through.

But, they say: with knowledge comes power. And after my doctors appointment yesterday I feel a little more confident in this new stage of my life. I've also been able to eat 3 meals so far today. I am beginning to trust that I can do this.

So, if you haven't heard the news yet, you are probably wondering what THIS is. I can confidently write and am ready to share with the rest of the world my big news: I'm pregnant!!

Makes sense now right? But the sickness was due mostly to the fact that my prenatal vitamins are to strong. The other part was just nerves...and maybe a little bit of morning sickness.

This is HUGE. I'm going to be huge. No, not really. I do however have to gain about 35 pounds because of how small I am now. And that's just the beginning! I know I have a lot to focus on but for now I am just taking one step at a time. This journey is going to be a great one. Are you ready?

Keep loving.
