After a year and a half of happy marriage, we decided it was time to expand our family. To our surprise, it didn't take very long! I found out on Christmas Eve but kept it a secret because I wanted to be able to tell Jack on Christmas morning. When we woke up on Christmas morning, I presented Jack with a gift. With much anticipation, I watched him unwrap it, pull off the top of the box, lift back the tissue paper and hold up 2 tiny little onesies. His reaction was full of joy and excitement...and I think a little shock too. : ) Lots of hugs and kisses were shared and we went on to have our best and most blissful Christmas yet! It just so happened that my parents and sister were in town to celebrate the holiday with us and it was so wonderful to be able to share our big news with them and Jack's Mom and siblings. Their reactions were priceless, and we immediately knew how loved this baby already is.
I am now 8 weeks along and Baby Meece is due September 4, 2013. We thought we would start this blog to not only share the exciting news, but also to allow our friends and family to follow us on our new journey to parenthood. Please check back often to get updates on Baby Meece and to see what Mommy and Daddy to be are doing to get ready for his/her big arrival!
