I'm Pregnant, but shhhh don't tell anyone yet; I only just found out!
So to those of you that actually follow my blog, you already know this is a journal for me, so in keeping true to myself I am excited to share with you some very exciting news that I have been dying to write about. Even though this news is early and I am not posting it anywhere else I felt my journal needed to be suplamented :). I have a ten month old son who has blessed our family. You see it took three years to conceive him. I had been told I couldn’t have children so his birth was nothing short of miraculous. My husband and I knew we wanted a large family and with his next deployment already scheduled we wanted to try and conceive again so that he would be home for it this time. Although we were both hopeful, we feared it would be just as difficult to conceive again. Yesterday, I found out I was pregnant after only two months of trying. My elation is indescribable! This means my husband will be here for my pregnancy and the first 3-4 months of life before he has to deploy to Afghanistan again. We couldn’t have planned it any more perfectly. I was so excited to tell him so yesterday as soon as I found out, I went to Walmart and bought an “I’m the big brother” shirt for my son. I then went to the mall to make a custom shirt for myself that said “new recruit” with an arrow pointing to my belly. I made plans to meet my husband on post for lunch.
As soon as I saw him my heart started beating a mile a minute wondering when he would notice. As we got out of the car I realized my son’s diaper had overflowed and my husband offered to change it. I took picture after picture thinking he would notice my son’s shirt, but it went unnoticed. We started in on our burgers when I noticed my husband eyes on me. I saw the wheels in his head working as he looked up from my shirt and asked, “Really? (short pause) Really (said in a high excited voice)?” I told him to look at our son’s shirt (which gave me time to get the camera out again) and caught his excited happy smile
