We're Pregnant!!!

We found out on my birthday and it was the best birthday present ever!  Right before we went out to dinner I took a test-just to double check since we had planned on having a glass of wine at dinner.  Well I completely forgot to read the directions!  I was freaking out because I didn’t know what the results meant---they should really make them say Yes or NO plain and clear...this line stuff surprisingly requires directions.  Anyways, when we found out we were just ecstatic!  I took 5 total tests just to make quadruple sure and yep!  All positive!

We heard from many of our friends who are trying that “making a baby isn’t as fun or easy as it sounds” so we thought if it happened on the first try it would be a miracle!  That’s exactly what our little bambino is—a miracle!

And bambino definitely knows how to make a birthday special :)

So we’re 5 weeks preggers and I’m feeling really good.  I’m lucky to report NO morning sickness yet!  I do notice a slight change in my belly though-I have a little baby pouch even though I haven't gained an ounce!  And there's NO sucking it in!
