I've waited too long...

Its been awhile... (thats about how I should start every one of my posts!)

I figured I've waited far too long to announce, what most everyone probably already knows... me and Nate are going to have a baby! We are pregnant!!!!!

It occurred to me the other day when I was at work that I've waited far too long to announce this. For those who may not know I am working for a school district as an SLT (Speech Language Technician). I work with all ages of kids from k-12 on there speech and language skills. I love it!
Well this day in-particular I was working with a first grader on saying his "sh" sound- which he tends to make a "s" sound for instead. We had about finished our five minutes of work for the day when he suddenly stopped talking (but didn't stop moving of course)... this happened just when he had looked down and noticed my stomach. He got a funny look on his face, realization and then a connection I guess because he proceeded to tell me how his mom was going to have another baby!

Hmmm... I wonder what stirred that thought! :)
Guess its starting to look obvious... we are pregnant!

We can't express how excited we are about sharing this news! The odds weren't exactly in our favor. In fact the Doctor had given us a 2% chance of ever getting pregnant on our own just two months before it happened. So even though we had been trying for 3 years the news still came as a complete surprise and shock!

It was good surprise and we will welcome our newest member of the family in July!!
(Our scanner to computer connection is not working right now so I may have to post some first baby pics later)

To come... Boy or Girl??!!
(Our apt is today- another reason why I've waited too long to announce this!)
