When Two Become Three - A Holiday Surprise

Has this blog been a little quite this month? I have been holding in a secret for 6 weeks!!!  Our twosome (with a furbaby) is becoming a threesome!!!! If you follow me on Instagram (dianekimball07) or are following my personal Facebook you got the news last night!

I couldn't think of anything more perfect to be thankful for this year, besides our family, friends, and health; except for that little tiny heartbeat on the screen. It finally happened!!!!!! It has been SO hard keeping it a secret and even though our parents, siblings and close friends have known for five weeks now....we wanted to save the secret until the holiday's and really give everyone a reason to celebrate.

I am 10 weeks 5 days, and although its still early I just cannot hold in my excitement! Everything has been relatively easy for me.....minus a little nausea that started mid week 7....I thought I was in the clear. Bummer. But that seems to have passed. We had an ultrasound and saw our little peanut's heartbeat at 6 weeks 6 days which is what is pictured above and below. We had a mini scare week 8 with some spotting, which is why this post (which was supposed to go live on Thanksgiving) is a little delayed. We had another ultrasound done and everything looked great. We also had our 10 week appointment yesterday, and saw our little nugget again, who has quadrupled in size from the last month! We are beyond excited!!!! I cannot wait to share this journey with all of you! Bring it all on! I will share how we announced to the family and everything that has happened thus far in a little more detail in the coming days. Please bear with me if its a little baby heavy for a couple of days....I'll try and mix in some other posts that I have lined up as well!

The best time to be pregnant is around the holidays with all the yummy foods, outpouring of love and kind words from our family and friends! My mom has already started shopping! I thank you for all your support and love with our journey to becoming parents!! I hope you all will be around for this journey, it's going to be a fun ride!

See our mini photo shoot below that I told you about a couple weeks ago!

And a picture of the peanut along with our announcement cards for the family!

I love how it looks to be waving for the camera! My heart be full!
