14w5d!

Hubby and I went in to start our prenatal care yesterday. To say that I was nervous and scared is putting it lightly. After what happened last time we both were extremely scared.

However, things are good thus far. Dr. Brisinger decided to check abdominally after I told him about how far along I thought I was. And within seconds we found this beautiful treasure:

The baby looked so cute and plump...lol. We even got to see him/her reach up and kick it's little legs in the air. I was mesmerized by it. Hubby asked about how far along and the doctor confirmed that the baby was measuring at exactly 14w5d. I was so happy because I knew it was somewhere between 13-14 weeks... so that means baby is growing perfectly. Yay us! Our next appointment is next month on the 23rd. Hopefully we'll be able to find out the sex too! :) Yayayayayay!

Telling the Family

We did it! We told the family! I know it's early and anything can happen, but I felt like we needed to do so. When it came down to it if anything happened I'll need their support.

After doing so, we've realized we did the right thing. My mom's reaction was priceless. She was in such disbelief. I could tell how happy she was for us. My brother was so happy and my sister even cried of joy. My brother in law George hugged me and congratulated us.

The best reaction was from my two nieces. Clarice was so happy she didn't even know how to react. She came over and told me that this was her greatest wish only that she never told me. She then looked up and thanked God. Then Angie got down and kissed my belly. It was the sweetest thing ever!

I can honestly say that right this minute I am sooooo happy. I feel so blessed to have such a supportive and loving family. They are the best!
