It's About Time for Tiny's Baby Bump
Hey y'all!!!!!
Sorry I've been gone for so long, the quarter is winding down and school is getting a little nuts. Are you ready for my big news? I'M PREGNANT!!!!!!! My heart still skips a beat when I say it out loud. These past 10 weeks (5.5 weeks since our BFP) have been a whirlwind of craziness, but I love it! We found out on January 17th, 2014 at like 6:30 in the morning, but honestly, I had a feeling about a week prior. I remember telling Jeremiah that I thought I was pregnant and that I should take a test on next Friday (the 17th), he cracked the slightest smile and nodded his head okay. Looking back on it, I think he had a feeling too. Anywho, it's the morning of the 17th and I have to pee, I was so nervous I decided to hold it because I wasn't ready to find out (we'd been trying for about 9 months at this point and I wasn't ready for another BFN). Eventually I get up and do the do but I was still super nervous so I made Jeremiah get out of bed and look at it first. "Babe, I think it's positive", I want to cry just thinking about it and when I actually saw it...words can't explain my level of happiness. I wanted to see it for myself, so I immediately grabbed the second test from the box and within seconds I saw the little plus sign I had been dreaming about for months.
Fast forward to now, we are 10wks and 3 days. Our first ultrasound was last Thursday and it was beautiful. I didn't cry like I thought I would but once I got home and watched the video of the heartbeat everything hit me and I couldn't help but shed a few tears of joy because of the little life inside of me. The midwife didn't tell me what the heart rate was but I knew it was strong and full of promise. Our next appointment (12 weeks) is next Thursday so I'm sure we'll get some more information and hopefully we'll get to hear to the heartbeat again (I highly doubt we will get another ultrasound, but the OB should use a fetal Doppler).
I'll leave some stats from my first 10 weeks below, but that's about it for right now. I'll try and remember to update at least once a week but please don't hate me if I forget.

It's About Time the Seahawks Win a Superbowl
Hi there!!
Before we continue let's get something straight - I am not a Seattle fan, I am Cowboy through and through but because we sucked out loud, yet again and failed to make the post season I had to improvise. This SuperBowl was actually really hard for me. I have a personal ruling stating "I shall not root for a Manning" but at the same time I really, really dislike Pete Caroll. Honestly, the only reason I chose to "go" for Seattle was because my niece's cousin is Marshawn Lynch. So, CONGRATS SEATTLE on this big win! Cool, got that out of the way.
I probably should've titled this, "It's About Time We Head to the Beach" because OMG, the weather this past week was amazing! I took Sneak and Spike to the beach on Thursday and it was so relaxing! Like really, unless we go to Guam or Hawaii, I am definitely going to miss the long Oki "winter" (the average temp this weekend was 72 - can't get much better than that!) Anywho, deciding to take advantage of the great weather J and I took some pictures at the beach and we had so much fun frolicking around like children. It was a great distraction from school and everything else that's been going on. Oh! And we went to a bbq for one his co-worker's wives. Congrats Krissy for putting on SSgt! The bbq was cool and everything but the highlight was their adorable dog Chloe. She's half boxer, half black lab and she has the most beautiful big dog eyes...I LOVE IT!! I also learned a rather interesting piece of information yesterday, but it's for me to know...and for you to find out later.
Sorry to cut this short, I gotta go get dinner ready. Big secrets coming soon!!!
See ya soon!
