Hello Everyone!

As most of you already know, Russell and I are expecting a baby. We had our first positive pregnancy test Sept. 4th and haven't quit smiling since. I started a blog to keep a historical record as well as to inform everyone on what is going on in between phone calls etc. I would hope for Russell to update it too but you know how guys are with feelings. lol

I went to my first OB appointment on Wednesday. We found out that I am actually more towards 4 weeks pregnant rather than six. This isn't good for my impatience! :) Oh well, this is going to be a long 9 months. So far I haven't had it too rough; there has been some extreme fatigue and just the last week I have started getting the 'flu like' symptoms I've read about (just hot and cold spells), nothing to worry about. I think I am too early for the morning sickness to set in but I can't say I'm looking forward to it either.

For those of you who don't know me well I love to research. I have already devoured What to Expect When You're Expecting as well as all of the pamphlets my OB gave me and of course internet articles. In a way all of this prepares me but it also makes it harder to wait. I guess I'm just silly and excited.
