Its for Real!!

Well, as most of you would say; its about time. Seems like all the kool kids have done it. its new territory for us, but i feel like its all been done before. We will probably be heavily reliant on many of you for random trivia answers.

We are:

  • expecting
  • pregnant

  • with child

  • carrying
  • preggers
  • knocked up
  • cookin a bun in the oven


It all happened pretty much on the first "try". Even though there wasnt really any "trying". So we returned from our trip to asia in mid august and felt ready to start working on the family. We dropped the birth control like a bad habit and decided to just let nature take over. We didnt look at any dates or time any attempts. We didnt want to set ourselves up for failure and I was travelling a lot for a project at work. But apparently it came together perfectly on our first available window...sometime mid september.

Jan actually had a problem reading the pregnancy test and chocked up the lateness to her body adjusting from coming off the birth control for the first time since??? But when she visited her doctor for a routine exam, she was completely floored at the news. She totally caught be off guard one night at dinner. I was beside myself, i didnt even know how to react...was it possible? Apparently it was.

Our due date is late June and we couldnt be more excited! Because Jan will be 35 for the delivery, we opted to wait to tell friends and family until we had recieved all our triploid screening and super ultrasound testing. Our delivery team is expecting a healthy baby boy. We let family know only a week or so ago and it was really hard to keep the secret. Especially since Lori, Paul and the girls were out here for Thanksgiving and we couldnt "celebrate" this news with them. We are slowly announcing news to our friends and extended family as we talk to or bump into them. We arent really outward about it...yet!
