The time has come...

Jeremy and I are starting a blog. Well I will be mostly writing it, but Jeremy will add his two cents.

The main reason why we are starting a blog is to keep people updated through the next chapter in our life as we start a family!! We are pretty excited.

It all started when we prayed and felt impressed that it was time to start a family. I was off birth control for two months. I took a pregnancy test one night after I told Jeremy how my stomach had been bothering me and that I had been super emotional lately. Usually I am not an emotional person, well that has changed.

It was quite a shock at first, seeing the big plus sign on the pregnancy test. It didn't seem real. I have been very blessed. I have not had any morning sickness. Thank goodness because I was finishing up my last semester of classes at BYU-Idaho on campus during my first trimester.

It was fun telling our parents the great news. Our siblings were also very excited.

It felt real the other day when we finally got to see 'baby Pitchforth' from an ultrasound. We also heard the heartbeat. What a neat experience! It was a reassurance that someone is living inside of me. Weird!!! but wayyyy exciting. Jeremy said that I had a smile on my face the whole time!
Here is 'baby Pitchforth' sucking its thumb. It was moving quite a bit and the doctor asked if I feel it, I said no, he said 'oh just wait'.

We find out on Tuesday if it's a boy or a girl.
