We're Having A BABY!!!!!!

I've been waiting forever and ever it seems to say anything about being pregnant. Besides our family and the friends that see me practically everyday, I've been doing my best to keep my mouth shut :) I'll be 12 weeks on Friday. Tim and I are so excited to become parents. This pregnancy really hasn't been bad, the morning sickness seems to last all day, depending on what I ate and how often. I didn't get sick, sick until 8 weeks, and started taking unisom that day and it made all the difference.
The only reason I know this is a couple weekends ago I decided that my morning sickness wasn't being all that bad so I should try not taking the unisom to see how I handled it. Lets just say that weekend I did not have a happy stomach and even ended up getting sick Sunday morning, and by the time I made it back home (I was in Boise) I felt like it was going to happen again so I took a unisom after Tim got back from church and haven't deviated sense. I'll probably wait until after 14 weeks to stop to see if my morning sickness is gone.
We found out at 5 weeks April 29 and I went to the doctor the 23rd of May for the first time. Those 2 weeks of waiting, I didn't make the appointment until I was 6 weeks, were the worst in matter of waiting. I had so many crazy nightmares that something would be wrong at the appointment that I hardly slept. Once the day came though I had the feeling that everything would be alright, which is true everything was great and our baby even had a strong heartbeat of 170 :)
Our first look at our little gummy bear :)
Tim wants us to have a boy and I could care less which gender it is as long as it comes out healthy. Tim was a very cute baby and little boy so really if he gets his way I'll be happy for him. :)
I'm due the 30th of December and for those that know or are wondering, yes that is in fact our two year anniversary. ;) Tim's family is excited to have a grand-baby, niece/nephew in their family now. My family is all excited for us but this will be grand-baby number 12 so it's not as big of a deal except that it's our first :)
