SURPRISE! We're having a baby!

There are no words to describe our happiness and excitement about our little one on the way. I can't imagine a better Father, a better man and a better Husband. Sharing this with him is incredible and he has been beyond helpful. Words can't explain my love for that man.

On one Sunday afternoon I began having hot flashes. I'm talking intense hot flashes that made me break a pretty good sweat. I went home that afternoon and took the longest nap of my life. That Monday I felt extremely tired, beyond tired...continuing onto Tuesday and I ended up sleeping ALL day Tuesday and again, all day Wednesday. This was not like me. I don't know how to nap! I take that back, I didn't know how to nap till now... I've become a master. That Wednesday night I couldn't sleep, I kept tossing and turning...I felt-strange? Like something was different, something was off. Ryan got up at 6:30 that morning to go surfing. The sound of him closing the door behind him as he left startled me and I woke up suddenly. The minute I woke up I just knew. I said under my breath..."I'm pregnant...I'm so pregnant!" I ran to the bathroom and took a test. Not even 5 seconds later it was positive! I ran out the door to see if he had left yet, he hadn't :) I looked over the balcony with my hands over my face smiling/crying..anything you can think of. He ran up the stairs, I showed him the "stick" and we hugged and laughed. It was beautiful.

I love being pregnant!
