I’m not one for jotting down words to express the happenings of day to day life but I recently found myself obsessed with the idea of blogging the progress of the next great adventure in the life of Ryan and I.
As most, if not all, of you know already Ryan and I got married in May 2010 and couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day. Enjoying our newly married life we soon found ourselves entering a new chapter in life…
The sickness, the extreme tiredness (which Ryan claims is an everyday Rachel thing), the moodiness… (Not to mention 2 home tests later) it all made sense… I was pregnant! We are having a BABY!
After the initial shock wore off it was only a matter of time before we had to already start making decisions. Who do we tell? When do we tell? Can I really keep it a secret from my Mom? From your Mom? Well I have to tell my sister… your sister… scared to tell my Dad? Me too. This went on for a day or so before we decided: We tell family ONLY and wait 2 weeks to tell everyone else! But of course that didn’t last long… at all. Family was told but soon friends would start questioning, why isn’t Rachel drinking? So it was on. Phone calls every night until we called everyone on our list and still it’s amazing how many more people you think of that you should call.
So now here we are 7 weeks into our 40 week journey and it’s all brought to reality with one little flicker of the heart <3
