My first picture! Clues....I am upside down, head down and legs up! And I like it in here and I am currently the size of a grape and still growing everyday!

WE ARE HAVING A BABY!!!!
We have always talked about having a family of more than two, Lord willing, and it just came earlier than expected. There are a few things left for us to do. I still have 6 ARE tests to complete before this baby gets here, but that is definitely the deadline I needed to get me in gear to study for them. Dan has mentioned building our first house on our property starting in March, so we'll see if the almost Architect can get those drawings done in time. So, with those two things being the most pressing we will not be bored awaiting our little ones arrival. We found out about 3 weeks ago and so many prayers have gotten us through what I hope to be the hardest part. So thank you all for your prayers, some days that is all that gets me through.
Dan and I went to our first appointment Oct. 28th. We got to hear the heart beat. We were both really amazed by the good strong sound of a heart so little. We also got our first picture of the little one. Every thing looks good and we'll go back Nov. 24th for our 12 week check up. We are eight weeks and sicker than I have ever been. I have been starting off the morning with a cracker and really eating crackers all day and night, I have them in my purse, in my bed side table and in my desk drawer. I feel a little qweezie most afternoons and some days I get sick and others I just stay close to a trash can or have the car door ready to swing open. But, we are excited. I'll be even more excited as I get to feeling better, so here is hoping for feeling better in no more than 3 or 4 weeks. Dan has been such a blessing, cooking dinner, cleaning the toilets, making sure I am okay and not putting any extra pressures on me at work, so I can't help but think of him when I am counting my blessings.
Dan's away hunting this weekend, so it is a girl weekend with Julie and mom and I, my dad is in Mexico on his bike. So we will probably watch girl movies, something I am getting really good at, laying on the couch and doing nothing, however, it does take work. Julie's birthday is today (Happy Birthday Jewls!!!) so we are going to pass out candy to the kids at the office and then take her to dinner at the Lodge for her big 2-6.
Hope you all have a great weekend (Happy Halloween) and I'll try to post blogs often and I'll even get Dan in on it so that when the baby comes he can keep you up dated and keep pictures posted. Thank you for your continued prayers and support. We love you all and may God Bless you today, tomorrow, and always!!
