Well we haven't written a post in awhile and we thought we would start being more on top of this, especially since we have more exciting news these days. Nick and I are expecting our first child and she is due December 30th.
So here is the catch up on our baby news. We found out we were pregnant April 20th. My reaction and Nick's reaction are here in the pictures. No, we were both excited about the news!!! We told our parents on April 25th. We wanted them to know, but told them they had to wait to tell other people after we were a little further along. At this point I was only 6wks. I'm not sure if it was harder for me or for them on waiting to tell others. We went to the doctor and heard the heart beat at 13wks (June 12th). We went ahead and told the rest of our family and close friends.
Our next appointment was going to be the best appointment ever and it turned out to be not as we thought. We were going at what we thought was 18wks in the pregnancy. We were supposed to find out what we were having. Well, at the appointment, they did an ultrasound and realized we weren't as far along as we thought we were. The orginal due date was December 17th and the ultrasound tech told us we weren't that far along. Dr. Merta said this happens sometimes and our new due date is December 30th. It was a little disappointing...well I cried, but we are fine with everything now. We went back 4wks later at 20wks in the pregnancy and found out we were having a GIRL!!! Her name is Anna Kathryn Webb. We will call her Anna Kathryn and a nickname of Anna Kate. Left picture is how they figured out she was a girl. And the right is just a good picture of her.

She has been kicking away and Nick and I both can feel and see her now. Nick's parents helped us purchase her crib. We have purchased a gliding chair for her room. My mom gave us my changing table/dresser from when I was a baby for us to use. My grandparents on both sides helped with the bedding and crib mattress. We are so grateful for family and their support. So now it's just to the fun little things of getting her room ready. We are hoping to start painting her room soon. I will post some pictures of what we have so far.
Nick and I are so excited about this new adventure and appreciate all the advice and help we can get. Have a wonderful blessed day!
