Big NEWS!

The Thomas family is growing.... we are having a BABY!
I have been dying to spill the beans and share our happiness with everyone on our blog. 

Important Stats:
Due Date....November 1, 2011
When we found out... March 3, 2011
Who we told first...family
Brent's initial reaction..."I won't believe it until we go to the doctor"
How many tests it took for me to believe it....1 (those are expensive!)

I am doing good. I've only gotten sick 4 times. 2 of the 4 were pretty disgusting. My fatigue is beginning to fade but I must say I was a total zombie for approximately three weeks. Brent still thinks I am helpless and lazy (but he is very understanding). During the first few weeks I craved Zaxby's nibblers. Maybe because they are $1 and located within 5 minutes of my work.  I also felt as if I would pass out from hunger. I kept a constant feeling of queasiness in my stomach. I literally thought "This is going to be the death of me". I'm glad to report that things are much better now. I have had 2 of my 4 sick spells this week but I'm chalking them up to the extra dose of iron I'm required to take since I'm anemic. I finally found out my blood type...O+. We've had two appointments so far. Our next is on May 9th. We find out what he or she is in June. I'm feeling girl. It may be because I've decided on a name if it's a boy and am clueless if it's a girl. Our family is torn. Half think girl, half think boy. I'm hoping to have a "reveal" dinner that way we can inform everyone at the same time. Time for pictures...

First look at baby...

What baby looked like last Monday (10 weeks 5 days)

It was so exciting seeing all the new features baby had acquired in 4 short weeks. 
I can't wait until our next appointment!
