You'll never guess what I heard...

...my baby's heartbeat! Yes, that is right, I am pregnant. I just had my first ultrasound and heard the little Kumquat's heartbeat. We are very excited. It was such a relief to know that everything is perfect and developing right on schedule.




Here are a few answers I know you will ask:

10 weeks.
November 17.
No not really, just tired. I feel lucky to not be puking my guts out!
Yes, we are excited.
No, we aren't too scared.

Mel's reaction to the pregnancy test: "I knew it!" And then I had to tell my baby niece McKenzie. I had to tell someone that wouldn't tell everyone else!

Ben's reaction to the cake in the fridge: Open fridge. Shut fridge. Nervous laughing...open fridge again. "Are you serious?" More nervous laughing... "I better go finish the garage so I can build a crib!"

Jan's reaction to the Golden Easter egg: Near tears. Very excited and shocked. I don't think she said much other than "Ooohh! Congratulations!"

Luanne's reaction to email of Ben's cake (of course I am on the phone to hear her reaction): Scream! "You gotta come see this! Come here, come here, come here!" Then laughing and excitement turned to a little bit of scolding... "Did you know when you were down here in Utah?"

And yes we did know but we had to make sure it stuck! Well, there is definitely a little baby in there with a strong little heartbeat.

Can you believe Ben is gonna be a Daddy?
