April Fools

Yesterday Patrick gets a phone call, and all I heard was "wow, really, are you sure, ok, well I'll tell her." So of course I asked who it was, Patrick said it was my doctor and she had some news for us. My heart started racing thinking of all sorts of things (I had just had my blood work done, did they find something, etc) and Patrick says "She looked at our sonogram again and saw that we are really having twins!"

Of course I freak out, saying "are you serious???" over and over again. By this time I am standing on the couch looking at Patrick. And Patrick has the best poker face ever. Then says "April Fools!"

He totally got me!!

Big News . . .

The big news is that we are expecting our first baby!! Currently we are 14 weeks preggo. Our due date is Sept. 29th. I had a lot of morning sickness during the first trimester but thank goodness that is now over. I am feeling good and have a little belly. We are so excited!! We should find out if we are having a boy or a girl in a few weeks. We can't wait!

The sonogram is from our nine week appointment. Our little one looks like a little bean, but is growing and has a strong heart beat.

Hooray for a new oven!!

Our oven was original to the house, so it had seen better days. Only one of the ovens worked and not all the time. So it was time for a new one. Patrick decided that he should paint the cabinets at the same time, since they were going to have to cut the cabinets to make room for the new one. After months of ordering and reordering ovens - a long story, we finally got our new oven and microwave installed!! Yeah!!

Check out the before and after pics - what a difference!
