Drum Roll Please.....

I'm PREGNANT! Baby Stewart is due out November 8th!!!! I am about 7-8 weeks along. We are so excited we can hardly stand it. Today was the day we let the secret out of the bag. I made up an Easter basket for both sets of parents. Inside I put blue and pink easter marshmallow bunnies, bib, baby lotion, baby wash, powder, peep's, and a golden egg. On the Peeps I wrote: "This chick is pregnant". And then inside the golden eggs it said: "Baby Stewart due November 8th, 2008". Everyone was completely shocked. No one had a clue. It was so fun.For those of you that know me well my whole life I have loved kids and have wanted my own since I was about 3 years old. I have dreamed of being a Mom. I know that sounds like the typical mormon thing to say but it is true. I just wanted to get married and make babies! Well then once I got married that wasn't the case. I didn't realize that sometimes husbands aren't ready. I seriously feel so blessed that I was able to get pregnant without even trying hard. I think the day we decided was the day it all came to be. Luke has been so sweet about everything. I know that he is going to be the best dad in the world! Dreams really do come true- I have a wonderful husband, I am graduating from the Y in April, and I am a little prego mommie!
