3 + 1 = 4
Hello Baby Edwards...
Our lives are changing in a very big, very wonderful way early next year.
We've known for just about six weeks now and have been doing a ton of celebrating with family (I am just over 12 weeks along).
The idea of a new little person in our lives is sinking in day by day. I am experiencing a crazy mixture of excitement, all-day nausea, grumpiness + mood swings, too-small clothes (which leads to more grumpiness), and that pure amazing this is really happening joy.
I am so hoping that I am coming out of the early pregnancy/first trimester fog (at least I really, really hope so) and am focusing on living fully and in the moment and not taking a minute of this for granted (easier said than done some of these days when all I want to do is sleep all day). As you might imagine I have a big list of things I want to do before this new person joins us and I have been crossing them off the list very slowly one by one.
Simon is pretty darn excited. He came with me to my doctor's appointment yesterday and really liked hearing the heartbeat (even though he was disappointed that he didn't get to see more pictures).
We are all pretty darn excited.
Life is a tremendously amazing thing indeed.
Congratulations to you and your family Ali!! How exciting! Simon will make a terrific big brother.

Congratulations! That's wonderful news for you and your family. Simon is at a great age for a sibling to come along. He will understand, remember and get to feel a part of the "process." That's first trimester is always rough energy-wise! Best wishes!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Enjoy, take care of yourself and know that I believe pregnant women should have whatever they want when they want it. (That was more for Chris' benefit than yours.)
I won't be having a family of my own, but my friend is now three months along with twins and getting to live this with her is so amazing. It's lovely how new life can instill joy in so many who have never even met you... but know just by hearing your news the smile on my face is huge! Thanks for sharing with us.
