You may want to sit down for this, but....

babies
Although this news may come as a shock to some, many already know what a miracle and blessing this really is for us. It's awfully early(development-wise only!! kinda late in life~), but I can't contain my excitement!!!!!!!!! We need all the prayer we can get, so please pray that all goes well for us! It's strange to be nervous and scared, yet excited with anticipation all at the same time! I have taught this topic to students for 13 years, but never experienced it first-hand! I know I couldn't ask for better friends and family to share this with, not to mention being able to experience this (FINALLY)with the love of my life! We are sooooo happy!

  3. Haha Kodi, you're funny. I still weird about mentioning it so early in the pregnancy, but I just can't keep it in any longer!

    Thanks Allison! I don't have the official due date from my doctor, but if you're going by the gestational age as well, then I think you're 7 weeks ahead of me!
    This will be so fun!

    When I went to the grocery store last night, I found myself looking at organic produce so the baby wouldn't get any extra pesticides! haha I also bought some all natural veggie spray!

  12. OMG........HOLLY! I opened your blog and saw the gestation chart. I pounded my fists on Mikes table and shouted "OH MY GOD, SHE'S PREGNANT!" Mike looked at me like I had lost my mind. Then I went on to read.....I cannot tell you how truly happy I am for you and Tobin.
    Hugs!!!

  13. Maggie! So good to hear from you on here! Thanks a bunch and thanks for telling Mitchell. I wonder if he remembers telling me (about 10 years ago when I had him in 7th grade) that he wanted me to name my first born after him. How funny!

    Thanks Jean! Your comment cracked me up and I can just envision you pounding your fist on the table! That is so hilarious! I knew you'd be shocked after all of our conversations this past summer!

    Mel~why am I having such horrible cramps so early? What kind of ligament did you say? Is that why? UGH!

  15. Holly,
    Huge Congrats!!! I am soooooo happy for you!!!

  16. Hol - I believe it was called the "round ligament". Dr. Stamps can tell you more about it. It is stretching with the growing uterus, and your body is just going thru major hormonal and physical changes anyway. Just try to walk as much as you can, it does help!

  17. Tob walked a mile with me after school. He also went and bought me organic milk to drink. I am making my list of questions to give to the doc this Friday.

  18. Ok - so you gave it away by saying you could only take Tylenol! Congratulations! I can only imagine how happy you both are at this moment. RVC sends his wishes too. He just celebrated his double nickel b-day on the 15th. Waiting to hear about a possible job - it would be a wonderful gift to us this month if it goes through. So we will say prayers for you and you for us!!

    Hugs,CVC
