Why I have been so quiet lately….

For any of you that still come here and read my site, you may have noticed that I have been a little, um, quiet lately. Well, it isn’t because I don’t love you anymore. ‘Cause I do. It’s just that I have had a million things running through my mind that I wanted to share with you, but it just wasn’t time yet.

Well, my friends, now is the time:

I AM GOING TO HAVE A BABY!

That’s right. After, ironically enough, nine months of “trying” Simeon and I finally managed to do what so many teenagers can achieve without even trying: he knocked me up. For those of you wanting some specifics, we are just about 10 weeks along, estimated due date is December 18th. It’s crazy to think that we are already a quarter of the way along and I am only just sharing it with you. Sorry about that. I just didn’t believe it myself. Until yesterday.

I had wanted to wait to share the news with everyone once it was actually confirmed. Sure, I peed on the stick and we got the positive way back on April 14th (Good Friday of all days: boy, was it!). But for some reason in my head it wasn’t absolute until the doctor said it was so. And seeing the tiny baby growing inside my tummy was defiantly proof. Oh and the heart beat. So tiny, yet so obvious. See for yourself:
