So, after weeks of keeping quiet about the baby growing in my uterus, Ft. Knox (aka Brad) finally agreed to let me tell a few people about my pregnancy this week! We ate dinner with our friends Matt, Cheri, & Ethan on Thursday night and finally spilled the beans. It was such a relief to be able to ask some questions and hear bits & pieces of her experience with her pregnancy. After dinner we went back to their place so she could loan me some of her pregnancy books for me to read. She even got out a bag of her maternity clothes and offered to let me borrow them whenever I was ready. It's so wierd to think of how I"ll look as a pregnant woman with a huge belly!
That same night we tried to go over to Anna & Tim's house to tell them too but unfortunately they wern't home. I really wanted to tell Anna in person but it didn't end up happening that way. We saw them Friday night when we played games with 2 other couples from church but there just wasn't a good opportunity to pull Anna aside for a few minutes. Then we went to our churches softball team cookout/celebration last night and there still wasn't a good time to talk. So on the way home I told myself that I was going to have to tell her today at church. Well, after we got home I got a phone call from who else but Anna. She was calling because she thought I was a little down at the party and wanted to make sure I was okay (little did she know it was just some nausea). Well I couldn't hold it in any longer so I just told her over the phone. She screamed so loud and was so excited! It was so sweet to hear my cousin and friend rejoicing over what the Lord has done for us. This child is going to be so blessed to have such a great "aunt & uncle" in Anna & Tim.
So, needless to say, this pregnancy is finally starting to seem real and it feels so good!
