I could hardly believe the pregnancy test when it read positive on June 28, 2011. I was absolutely shocked, and thank God for Gerald and Abby's big smiles to keep me from probably fanting. After THREE long months of holding in this secret, it feels like I can finnaly breath normally again. I can't really explain it, but not sharing the news of the pregnancy, your fears, and concerns is so hard on a prenant person. Well in my case anyway. Abby is very excited to be a big sister, and ask to talk to the baby almost everyday. I will actually be 13 weeks this Friday, and time seems to be flying by. Can't believe I'm already three months along!
Today is also Gerald's, my fiance's, 23rd birthday!! So happy birthday to him, I love you so much! I guess I will also share the big news about him going to boot camp in January, for thirteen weeks, to become a MARINE. I'm terified, but really excited at the same time. Because he is not doing what you expect marines do, kill kill kill. He is actually going for a very good career, and will not be doing an infantry job, I made that very clear with his recruter. The downside of him leaving for boot camp in January, is that he will miss the birth of the baby, and have no way of communication to know that the baby was born. So I have decided to find a doctor that will let me record EVERYTHING, and mail pictures overnight to him as soon as the baby is born. It's very bittersweet, because we want him there so bad, but we also want this career for him and our growing family. Probably the absolute hardest decision we've made in our lives, and ever will make.
Happy Birthday Gerald!!
