He's BAAAACKK!

So there's a few things to be updated on that happened in the past month-ish.

First of all: WE'RE HAVING A BABY!

this particular picture is from my last appointment, i was a little over 8 weeks. i have another appointment on Thursday as i'm nearing the end of my 11th week! so hopefully everything is running smoothly :)

Nathan arrived back home in Virginia on July 15. Having never been to a ship homecoming before, i wasn't sure what to expect but it was something i'm glad to say i was a part of. All together, it was about a 5 hour ordeal from the time i arrived to the time we left the parking lot but it was definitely worth it!

I absolutely LOVE having him home, and so do the dogs :) he's helped me out so much around the house and has taken such good care of me when i experience the 'not so exciting' events of pregnancy.

It's also a plus that he's been on critter control and saved me from terrifying encounters with these little creatures that we keep finding in the back yard and on the porch.

And luckily, he'll be home for the rest of this year :) i couldn't be happier.

We are so excited to be starting a family together. Although it was unexpected, we're welcoming it with so much joy and excitement. This child is going to be loved very much :)
