We are so blessed. I couldn’t ask for a better support group.  Everyone at work is just so excited for us, most of them cried tears of joy when I shared the news!  My best friend, who has been dealing with more than her fair share, sent us our very first baby outfits that are absolutely darling, baby bibs, and even the book “What to Expect When You Are Expecting” (which I cannot put down!)  I can’t put into words how much that meant to us… taking time out from herself and sharing, so generously and genuinely, in our happiness.  We told Ian’s sister yesterday over the phone while her fiance, Jonathan, was on Skype.  They said no matter where they are, they will be here when he or she makes their way into the world.  This baby is already so loved by so many people.  I really didn’t want anyone to know about our pregnancy until after the first trimester because of all the scary stories, but now that we are at 7 weeks, I want to scream it from the rooftops.

I was completely sure that our little one was a boy a few days ago, but after speaking with my midwife, who says that she has never been wrong in 30 years using this theory, I am starting to reconsider

This is the theory… It depends on your cravings- If you want sweets- you’ll get sugar and spice and everything nice (girl), but if you want salty, you will get snips and ships (boy)…

and ALL I want is sweet stuff!

Any thoughts??  haha

We love you all and we can’t thank you enough for all of the love and support!

Andrea, Ian, and baby
