It's been a little while since I've posted a new entry. Let me explain why...
I didn't quite know what to say. Jason and I have been quietly rearranging our wedding plans and didn't quite know how to tell you. You see, I found out in late January that I am.... pregnant!!! And couldn't possibly be happier!
That's right, with child. The baby is set to arrive on September 30, just three weeks after my original wedding date of September 10. You can imagine all the thoughts running through my head as I looked at the two pink lines on my at home pregnancy test indicating a positive result??
Firstly, I am supposed to be getting married in September, not delivering a baby!?! And I'm in school! Granted, the program will be done by then, but my plan was to start working, gain some experience, and THEN start trying for a baby. Didn't anyone else out there in the universe know my plan!?!
After an hour or so went by with some tear-filled phone conversations with Jason (he was at work), I started getting used to the idea. More than that, I started LOVING the idea! I love babies. I love children. And so far all the babies and children that I love have been other people's... so imagine how much I'll love my own!!
This meant that we had to reconsider all the wedding plans that we'd been making. I'm not particularly interested in waddling down the aisle eight and a half months pregnant.
So we started brainstorming: Should we marry before the baby comes? Or after? My vote was before. Jason agreed, so we were settled. Now to choose a date. We chose April 23, which is the Saturday of Easter weekend. We thought that a long weekend would be a good choice for our out of town guests and since it's not yet summer season, all the lake folk won't be grumpy about missing a long weekend at the cottage.
There were many more details to iron out, and about three months to pull it all together. There is so much more to fill you in on, but I think the baby news is big enough for one post!
