Finding out!

I guess I should catch up to where I am now since I didn't start this blog until 14 weeks...so, let's start from the beginning (oh and I don't know how good I am at blogging but I'll try).

I guess I should start by saying that we tried for well over a year to get pregnant this baby and that we were on the verge of having medical intervention but God had a greater plan and just knew when our time was!

I found out I was pregnant on December 14th and while it was a VERY exciting day for me and Jonathan, it was also a very bad day for my sister. My sister had an appointment in Winston that day (to which I was going with her and my parents) because they found what Ashe called a "tumor" on her brain - so, because of this, I refrained from telling my parents that day because I didn't want to take away from Tiffany. Well, it ended up not being a tumor (stupid Ashe Medical) and Tiffany is fine so I told everybody the next day because I just couldn't hold it in any longer! I think my favorite reaction was my sister-in-law, who had been probing me for months to have a baby, because her mouth literally almost hit the floor. My sister-in-law and her family moved to Japan in January so I knew there were going to be mixed feelings because they wouldn't be here, etc so I was actually a little worried about their reaction but honestly, it was the most fun. We were waiting for them when they came home from shopping one day at my in-law's house and they were a little bewildered on why we were there late on a weekday so they just kept going out to their truck and getting more and more bags so I finally told my nephew and niece and told them to tell their mom & dad when they came back in. Hazel didn't quite get it but Lane yelled as loud as he could at them as they came through the door and said "Momma, Daddy, Uncle and Jessica are gonna have a baby!" and as I waited to see their reaction as they came around the corner I almost peed myself! haha. Holly came around the corner with her jaw dragging the ground and came running to hug me, it was so great! The other funny part was that the conversation that night kept getting changed to other things like my niece choking on cotton at the dentist but our brother-in-law, Marion, kept turning the conversation back to us and our news! It was so fun.
