9 weeks!


We're Pregnant!!!

On February 17th, on a weekend getaway to Blowing Rock we found out that we are pregnant!!! That put us at about 4.5 weeks! We had been trying for around 8 months and we were beyond thrilled at the news!!!

We rushed to Huntersville to tell my parents and then home to tell Gabe's parents!



We had our first ultrasound on March 4th, where we got to see our tiny bean!

Our second ultrasound was on March 15th and we couldn't believe how much baby had grown!

I wanted to create a place to log all of my bump pics and symptoms so we can come back and remember every step of the journey!
