This is my husband, me, and my sister (On our Wedding day)!! ~~>

Congrats to all you ladies!!

Here is a little about myself. My name is Heather, and I have been married to my amazing husband Josh, since May 21 of 2007! He has a daughter, Briana, who was born April 21, 06. This is my 1st child.

Josh and I met when we were 16~at a church camp @ Emory & Henry College. (We both were born and raised in TN) My husband is in the US Air Force and has been stationed here in Albuquerque for the past 6 years. I moved here right before we got married. I really don't like anyting about ABQ, or NM! But we are here anyway.

I have a younger sis, who lives in TN. I miss her s0o much!! I wish she could be here with me through my pregnancy. I also miss my mom, espically for this to be my 1st child and to do things alone. My mom checks on my just about every day, and she came to visit in March (and then in July). I miss the green grass and the "real" mountians in Tennessee.

We both wanted chldren, and since he has a daughter who will be 2 when *our* baby is due, we are s0o happy that there won't be to much in age difference! This pregnancy is totally planned so we are s0o happy!!!!

Hello ladies! My lil princes has been kicking my all day yesterday, all night last night and all morning!! She is VERY active...It makes it really hard to sleep. She use to 'sleep' the same times I did and get up at like 7 every morning! Guess she has changed her mind! I am taking care of my step-daughter today while my usband works for a few hrs. We are going to Babies-R-Us to 'look' around. It seems like I skipped the baby step, and went straight to (help) raising a toddler! (She will be 2, 4-21, right before I am due)It wears me out!!!! Wish me luck, we might even go to Wal-Mart!!!! LoL!! Her mother loves me, she doesn call my husband, she calls me if Briana is sick....like what am I suppose to do? TAKE HER TO URGENT CARE!!! Sorry...there is a vent I needed! Wish me luck today!!!

About My Pregnancy

I have had a pretty amazing pregnancy so far! I had morning sickness in the 1st trimester, and some headaches in the 1st part of the 2nd trimester, and on Mon., Dec.17, 07 we had to go to OB/Triage. I had horrible cramps that would last for a minute and then go away for 5 minutes, and then repeat for like 4 hrs. It scared me, b/c I didn't understand what was going on. The Doc said it was a ligament stretching my uterus, and it was normal. (It didn't feel very normal!!!) She said that it would continue until my uterus was at the size it needed to be, for our lil princess. We got to hear her heartbeat, and the nurse said it was 144 and was normal. (I was s0o relieved that she was ok!) She also said that I was dehydrated, and made me drink 2, 20oz bottles of "flavored" water before I left. (It was less than 2 hrs!) YUCK! I was floating in that water before we left!!!!

Josh and I are s0o excited to have *our* own lil princess!! Josh reads the pregnancy books and it is the sweetest thing ever! He is s0o happy that he is going to be the one cutting her cord!

I am due in April. Josh and I are expecting our 1st baby on April 26, 2008! She will be here in time for sUmmEr!!! We can't wait!!

**We have picked out her name Jillian MaKayla!**
