What do you Expect?

...A baby!!!

I am now a little over 3 months along and feeling pretty gross. The morning sickness is kind of easing up and my belly is just barely starting to pooch, making almost all of my clothes uncomfortable (Luckily, I get to wear scrubs at my internship). When I am not constantly puking, I'm feeling VERY lethargic and Garrett has been super sweet so far. He holds my hair back and runs little errands for me and is always saying sweet things to my fat belly. According to a parenting website, our baby is 2 1/2 inches long, weighs 1/2 an ounce, and still looks like a little alien.

It's not an 'oops baby' either. We planned it, although after all these fun, awful symptoms have set in, I'm not quite sure what I was so excited about... One thing that was fun though was hearing the baby's heartbeat a couple weeks ago. Most of the time, the only reminder I have that I am pregnant is that I feel sick. Other than that, I forget that there's apparently a small human growing inside me and so hearing the heartbeat kind of made that fact a little more real. But it's still kind of unreal.

Either way, we are very excited for this new adventure!
