Since I am just starting this blog, I will first fill you in on whats been going on the past 6 months. Like I said earlier we bought a home in December of 2010 and proceeded to make it our own which consisted of lots of painting and decorating. Now that it has started warming up we have ventured out to take on our ugly yard filled with patches of dead grass and garden beds full of weeds. We love our little starter home and can't wait for the day to come when we can stand back and look at all of our hard work paid off.
Now, let's just say that after a month or two after we got married I began to feel a lot of "changes". A "+" sign revealed that we would be expecting a baby. The first few months of my pregnancy was beyond awful. My diet consisted of popsicles and pickles, if I was lucky enough to keep them down. I recall at one time laying in bed fighting a migraine and the flu at the same time. I wanted to die! I felt like I would never feel good again. After 3 or 4 months the symptoms finally faded and I gained my appetite back along with most of my energy. I am feeling great now and the only problem I seem to face is now getting larger and more uncomfortable. On April 13, 2011 we found out that we are going to be having a little girl. I couldn't be more excited! People are always asking us what we plan to name her, but Brig and I have decided to keep it our little secret until the day we can properly introduce her to the world which is expected to be August 30, 2011. Her kicks are getting stronger everyday and leaves me wondering what body organ she will kick next. She's my little angel and I already love her so much and can't wait to meet her. I really hope that I can be as good of a parent as my parents were and continue to be. Here are a couple of pictures that were taken just the other day. I am 26 weeks along!

I can't believe how fast time has gone and that I am already 6 months. Our little cupcake will be here before we know it!
