well little one, your daddy and i have been married one month and we are welcoming you into our beautiful lives! we weren't quite expecting you so soon! although we couldn't be happier! i just wanted to keep this book so that i could talk to you and try and keep my sanity! i hope that when you're old enough, you will enjoy this book as much as i enjoy writting! last weekend we took the 'at home tests' (3 to be exact!) and tomorrow i'm going to the doctor to confirm everything. we told my mom (your grandmother!) first, she was so happy, she wouldn't stop crying! then we told grandmom and grandpop cassaday and they said 'already!' although the day we came home from our honeymoon she asked when she was going to be a grandmother again! can you believe it, she is so happy! uncle christian was shocked. when i met your daddy (5 years ago) uncle chris was only 10 years old! he's growing up so fast! uncle rob and aunt dottie we told over the phone and robbie, your cousin. then they came over to grandmoms and gave you your first gift! a pair of sneakers! they're so cute and tiny. they were for sean, but he never fit into them. well little one, i'm getting tired and i have to go to the bathroom again! my two biggest complaints from having you in there! i don't mind. i can't wait till you grow with me! i feel like when i hold my belly (even though it's little, i know your in there) that i'm holding and hugging you! i love you and well, till tomorrow! good night, god bless and be healthy!, love mommy xoxo (august 20th was when we found out!)
