We're going to be parents!

In an attempt to catch up on the blog, Bryce downloaded an app for my iPhone so that I can post. We'll see how it works and if it makes it simple enough for me to blog. I'm going to start a few months back when we found out I was pregnant! We found out the first week of December. Here is a picture of my flat belly the day we took out positive test!



We wanted to wait a while to tell our family but we had a problem. By 6 weeks, I was throwing up nearly constantly and couldn't stand the smell, look, or thought of food. This made not telling family around the joyous holiday season impossible. Not to mention, all my coworkers knew because the Emesis basins became my best friends and the bathroom a second home.

Bryce's nickname at home is 'baby nut' so he made a super cute picture, featured here, that we put in a bowl of nuts for his parents. If you can't see it, it reads 'our family tree is full of nuts!' and has a funny picture of us, our parents, and a little baby. We gave it to them on Christmas eve at a get together at brooke's house. Everyone was excited and many a tear was shed.




We wanted to tell my parents before my brother called from hong kong for Christmas. We gave them a plaque that says 'grandchildren are God's reward for not killing your children' which was perfect for them. My family was very surprised and excited! Sinikka cried and immediately began planning for they're arrival. My studly brothers met me outside the bathroom door after another sick spell with crackers and a coke. Such Gentlemen.
