My profile

Ok! I am so thrilled to be pregnant! My hubby and I have always wanted kids. We've been together for almost 7 years and we are getting married August 8th, 2008. So funny how tragic things in your life can give your life perspective; my grandmother who raised me ended up extremely ill earlier this year and she said that she wished she could see her great grandchild before she passed. I told Larry and we just sat and thought what are we waiting for? We are financially set, we were planning the wedding this year, and we were ready! So we started "trying" and low and behold 1st try was the charm! I took 4 tests because I just couldn't believe that I could be pregnant! lol Our beautiful baby is due December 24, 2008 and we couldn't be happier. Our life is just beginning...
