Happy News!


Remember how yesterday I mentioned that there was *much* more to say, but I thought I'd save it? That's because it's SUCH BIG NEWS that it needs it's own post! Drumroll, please..........it's with a very happy heart and great excitement that I announce that.........Dan and I are expecting our first baby!! (it still feels so unbelievable to type out those words!). 

I am about four months along and it feels *so* good to finally share this happy news on here. My belly has just started to pop ever so slightly, making this all feel much more real lately. We heard the heartbeat (loud and strong!) last Friday at our 16 week doctor's visit and are eagerly awaiting our next appointment on the 19th when we'll find out whether this little one is a boy or girl! 

The last few months have been a struggle, for sure, in coping with the extreme tiredness and nausea (that explains why I've been a bit blah on the ol' blog), especially with the rough and long winter we've had. BUT...spring is coming (despite the endless chilly temps) and I am officially in the "Glory Days" of 2nd trimester! Feeling pretty good these days, although the show this past week was certainly a challenge to my stamina. I've been trying to catch up on sleep and rest as much as I can during this crazy Ragtime season, but I have to say: it's been kind of neat dancing and singing on a great big stage alongside so many talented people with this little one along for the ride :) Will make a great story for him/her later, I think :)
