We found out I was pregnant on Friday August 10th. We kept our HUGE secret to ourselves for several more weeks when we finally told our parents, all 8 of them. The secret was killing us, but we wanted to wait until the 1st trimester was behind us before sharing the news with the rest of our family & friends.
Lets back track...
On that night in August, I just had a feeling. I took the home test right before bed and placed it on the back of the toilet. When Michael came in the room a few minutes later, I asked him to go check and see what it said. He was a little frustrated with me, because it was REALLY early and he worried it would be negative and perhaps upset me. I reassured him and asked him to please check the test. When he came into the bedroom smiling from ear to ear, I knew. I love that Michael told me "we are having a baby"... cool twist to the usual.
I felt pretty yuck for a few weeks in that 1st trimester but it has dramatically gotten better since 10 weeks. Thank you Lord! We are so excited!
Saturday October 13th we told the rest of our families and began sharing with our friends. That has been the most fun! We are due in April 2013.
This was our post on Facebook...
Not sure how she feels about this announcement, she usually just stares at us when we tell her she will soon be a big sis. We hope to find out the gender in mid November. Every night we pray for this little person, we love he/she so much already!

2nd Anniversary!
Michael & I celebrated our 2nd Anniversary on September 25th. Hard to believe it's been 2 years! We ordered Chili's take out and Michael let me pick the movie we rented. It was a wonderful evening spent at home together. Several days later we headed to Ormond by the Sea in Florida. Friends of ours, Chris & Leanna, invited us to tag along on their vacation, so we did.
We had the best time just relaxing and eating good seafood! Most days were spent at the beach, reading a good book and watching the dolphins. We did travel to St. Augustine for the day to shop and meet up with Shawne & Larry for some delicious Italian food. I failed to take many pictures on our trip, but here are the few I did get on my phone.

Thanks to The Smo's for inviting us! We had so much fun!
