9 Weeks!

It is hard to believe it has already been 9 weeks. I found this pregnancy update questionnaire thing on another pregnancy blog and I thought it was a smart idea, so I am going to use it too! It will be fun to see how things change over the next seven months! 

• How far along? 9 weeks
• Total weight gain: -1 lbs.
• How big is baby? The size of a green olive
  
•  Maternity clothes? Nope, still wearing my normal clothes.
  
• Sleep? I am so tired all the time. I have been sleeping pretty well, but can no longer lay on my stomach for very long without getting tummy pains.
  
• Best moment this week? Telling everyone that we are expecting. We have such great people in our lives. So many people already love this baby, which is a great feeling.
  
• Movement? Well, the baby is moving but I can’t feel it.
  
• Food cravings? Macaroni and Cheese, yogurt, raspberries
  
• Labor signs? Nope.
  
• Belly button in or out? In.
  
• How are you feeling? Overall, I have been feeling great. Today was the first day that I felt awful. Ended up taking a sick day as I couldn't keep anything down.
• What I miss: Wine and sleeping on my stomach.
  
• What I'm looking forward to: We are picking up Harley (our puppy) tomorrow! 
  
• Milestone: We are 9 weeks pregnant!

THIS WEEK: Baby is the size of a Green Olive! 

First Doctor's Appointment

We had our first doctor's appointment earlier this week and we found out that we are 7 weeks along and little baby Dewese is scheduled to make its first appearance into the world on March 5, 2010. During the ultrasound we got to see the babies little heartbeat, which it made it seem just a little more real for us. It was crazy that at only 7 weeks old, the babies heartbeat is already 146 beats per minute. Our doctor said that everything looks great. Our next appointment in in a month. Here is baby Dewese's first baby picture! 

We're Expecting!

It is true, we are going to be parents to more than just a puppy! We are expecting our first child sometime in early 2010.

We found out a couple of weeks ago when my period was late and we took a home pregnancy test. We were so surprised by the results of the first test, we had to take two more to make sure we really believed what we saw in front of us. We have always talked a lot about our future little family, but never expected it to happen this quick. We have had a pretty exciting year with our wedding, honeymoon, and our puppy, but we are excited to be taking on another exciting (and scary) adventure together. We have a doctors appointment tomorrow so we will hopefully find out exactly how far along we are and when this baby will make its first appearance into the world.  

Introducing Harley!

Harley is a 6 week old female boxer puppy that we will be bringing home in a couple of weeks. We are getting her from a breeder near Denver and the pictures below are from our visiting day with her earlier today. 

New to the World of Blogging!

Hello World! 

Neither one of us have ever been big bloggers, but we decided to start this blog to keep everyone up to date on what is happening in our world. Since so many of our family and friends live far away from us, we figured we start this blog to help keep you informed with what is going on our lives.  This will also be a great way for us to record our memories of our life adventures as they happen. 

We hope you enjoy! :)
