Rambling Update

Here we are less than 100 days away from meeting our littl girl and I'm super excited!!! I talk to her everyday and we have a nice conversation before I go to sleep, or I hope its a conversation not her just kicking me to tell me to leave her alone and stop messing with her beauty sleep. Since I know there will be plenty of time for that during the teenage years.

The worries are running through my mind, so much needs to be done before she gets here but she is only 6 and a half paychecks away. In that time we not only have to move but still have to find a place that meets our space and budget requirments. This has been the toughest thing to do out of the whole process. Plus we are still stocking up on baby supplies. The baby shower is about a month away, we will do the majority of the shopping after we see what we get at the shower.

We have already bought her crib, matress, dresser, and changing table. We have onesies(that I put my/our added touch too),

some other random clothes and baby things, the wife has crochet tons of things from hats to booties, she is now working on a sweater for the baby. There is so much more to buy but we are running out of space to store it, so we have slowed some but we try and buy something every time we go shopping or when we get some extra room in our budget we order something for our little girl.

We had a doctors appointment last week and everything seems to be right no track, the next one the wife gets to drink the lovely drink for her glucose test. So I feel for her, and plan to take her out to a special lunch afterwards. I love feeding her cravings, knowing she is satisfied make me happy, but in less than 100 days she is going to have to share some since I will now be wrapped around 2 girls fingers...which im sure she will have no problem with.

Well I thought I had a main goal when I started to write this post, but seems as if ramblings the best I can do, at least im passing some time here at work on this slow day. I hope to tune this blog into a family blog and start doing more here than just updates every so often. Well looks like its time to focus on what they pay me for. Until next time....

-The Husband

This Is How It Starts

So here we are 10 years into our relationship and 8 years into our marriage and now we’re pregnant! When we met there we already 2 wonderful boys Randy & Marc from a previous relationship, who I (husband) fell in love with and took care of as my own, but now we’re having one of our own. Here we are!

We are about 5 weeks and a few days pregnant we just found out about 4 days ago, the misses just thought she was getting the bug that was going around and with me starting a new job it kinda fit since that always happens, but when aunt flow didn’t happen we had a feeling but she had a weird visit a month or so back (we’re blaming stress). So after a few days and flow was a no show, we went the el cheapo route (remember we’re trying to start a business) and hit up the dollar tree for a test. She wanted to hit the bathroom and find out then, I encouraged her to wait till we got home, it would be less than an hour or so. When we pulled in to the house she was like the wind and soon she was doing the deed and, we had 3 minutes to wait, well almost instantly we saw the faint second line.  The longer the time drew on the darker the line got. I immediately ran to grab the Nikon to snap a few pics of this exciting moment.

As you can see those are some pretty dark lines. We decided what better way to tell everyone then to post it on Facebook and Twitter, but before we did we decided to text her mom and let her be the first to know. I’m still pretty sure some of our friends don’t know but they will figure it out eventually…..

We started saving immediately. We put all of our change and spare cash into an empty Welch’s grape juice bottle… aka “The Baby Fund”. If you want to donate feel free to email me for paypal information….. LoL (but for real email me).

 So here we are, on the road to having a baby. That’s the reason for this blog, among other things. To document our journey, our story and just about everything we care to share. I (the husband) have my own blog (gregstwicesasgood.blogspot.com) and the misses has one for our business (blog.electriccupcakes.com). So why not add a third to the mix, as if writing for 2 blogs plus all the other stuff we have going on isn’t enough. Well please check back often we hope to update at least once maybe twice a week, or whenever something new happens with the peanut (baby)…..

Ps. Here is the misses about 3 or 4 days pregnant (we didn’t know at the time this pic was snapped), be on the look out for the whole series of these to come..
