Maternity Clothes

Today I took the big trip to the Mall of Georgia. I was in search of pants that would actually fit without doing the rubberband trick and shirts that might last a little while. Following advice from my oh, so trendy friends, I went to Old Navy and Ross. I racked up! I found lots of sales! (If you know me at all, you know this is a must for any purchasing!) My only disappointment was how pricey good maternity pants can be. I guess it is worth it, but the retail gods definitely know we have to have them! Now I need it too get to be the nice, crisp fall temperatures that I need for long sleeves. Come on fall!

Announcing Baby B...

The secret is out! We are having a baby. As you can tell from the picture above, we brought an unknown, extra special souvenir home from our Italy trip.

I first realized that something was different when I went back to work at the end of July and I was not in the middle of the usual, monthly routines. The next weekend, I took THE test and it came out positive! I was shocked. We had been trying, but did not expect any results to happen so fast.

As anyone that knows me will attest, I can not keep a secret. It has been incredibly hard to wait until the 13th week to make an official announcement, but I have managed (mostly, :))

Below is our first picture of our Baby B! Of course the baby looks more like an alien turtle, but its our baby and we love it already! This was taken at 10 weeks. We are now in our 14th week.
