Time to Catch Up!!!

Wow...I've been TERRIBLE about blogging!  So much has happened since my last post!

The biggest change in our lives right now started here:


We got pregnant!!!








We weren't trying to have kids, but we weren't NOT trying either.  I first suspected that I might be pregnant while we were away on our 2nd wedding anniversary vacation in Aruba.  I realized I was "late" that week, and other changes were happening to my body that made me wonder.  Not to mention I was sleepy ALL the time (which if you ask Keith, he'll tell you I'm always sleepy anyway...pregnant or not)!  Some pics from our Aruba vacation:
Our awesome party boat snorkeling adventure!

June 11, 2013...our 2nd Wedding Anniversary!

Our last night in Aruba...dinner at Barefoot right on the beach at sunset!
Once we returned home, and partied it up for my 30th birthday, I took the test to find out if my suspicions were true...and you know the answer!  I'll never forget the day we told our closest friends and family....it was 4th of July, and we were all chilling on the Relaxation Station in my mom's pool.  Keith and I were having a party at our place the next day, and I didn't want all of our friends hounding me to drink more and do shots, so I decided it was best to tell them so they could help me avoid alcohol (we weren't far enough along yet to tell the world).  I think I was only around 8 weeks pregnant at the time....or so we thought.  We found out at our first ultrasound that I ended up being 2 weeks further along than we originally thought, but that hasn't happened yet at this point in my story.  ;0) 

A bunch of us were floating on the raft when I broke the news to our closest friends about the baby.  Katie jumped up in excitement yelling "shut up! shut up!", and I'll never forget her husband Shane just pushing her backwards off the raft and into the pool as he jumped up in excitement to come give me a hug!  It was hilarious...poor Katie!  :P  We also told my Mom, sisters, and my step-dad on the same day too. 

Relaxation Station...where I would later spill the news about Baby Lee!

Trying to hold my top on after jumping in the pool....damn bikini!

At our first Ultrasound appointment, we were told our due date of February 3, 2014.  What perfect timing!  It fell right during the slow season for photography and weddings, so we were really lucky in that aspect.  The one hiccup is that Keith had a wedding booked already for February 1, 2014...but what are the chances I would go into labor on the ONE day Keith has to work in February, right?  ;0)

7.17.2013...our first look at Baby Lee!!!

Goodnight!
