A new member.

The new year begins in a week and I think about the last couple months and how much my life has changed. It was mid October when I found out I was pregnant. I was in the hospital thinking I was dying (I had massive abdominal pain and nausea)when the doctor comes in and says I was 6 weeks pregnant. They took me to get and ultrasound and there's where I saw the baby, a tiny little thing the size of a kidney bean with a heart, a beating heart. I couldn't believe it. I had never been any happier. I decided to quit smoking and drinking immediately, eat healthy and get a job. And let me tell you, it has been going great. Four months into pregnancy, the baby is healthy, it kicks, it sucks its thumb, it's the size of a turnip (5 inches, 5 ounces) and it has just been wonderful. Oh, and I got a job! I am a line cook, close to what I wanted to have. We won't find out the sex of the baby til January. To me, that would be the greatest way to start the new year, knowing what the new addition to our family would be. And Josh has been great also, I've never seen him more committed and mature than before. I love him more everyday and I know he'll be the greatest dad in the world. :)
More to follow.
