Happy New Year

2006 is behind us now. It's all a brand new page just full of possibilities and promise. 2006 was a good year and the greatest happening for us at the very tail end. I am happy to announce that we are expecting. We were sort of trying for over 2 years. November 30th I took the home pregnancy test. I was almost in disbelief when I saw the plus sign. We're very excited. I'm pretty positive it was during our Florida vacation we got lucky. I am due August 5th. I'm still nervous and anxious until this delicate first trimester is over. I've been to my doctor already and my next appointment is January 15th, during which I'm expecting to hear the heartbeat. It's when I hear that sweet sound that I'll feel much more confident.

We told family and friends on Christmas Day. Everyone is very happy and excited for us. Now for the tricky part, to tell my boss. I think I'll wait until after this whole holiday vibe has settled and things are back on routine.

At any rate, I'm so thrilled!
