HAVING A BABY!! (:
Dearest Friends and Family,
We are so thrilled to share this exciting news with you! Sometime in December, there will be a new little baby Pavlic arriving! And to answer EVERYONE'S question, NO we were not trying. (: We'll just go ahead and put there out there. But apparently God thought we needed a baby, and we couldn't be more excited...especially now that the shock and surprise have worn off a little bit!
It is still super early, and I know most people wait a few more weeks to share the news, but I am absolutely bursting at the seams and can't keep my mouth shut any longer! We went to the doctor last Tuesday (2/19) for our very first appointment. To be totally honest, we are not completely sure how far along I am, so she went ahead and did an ultrasound. We saw a whole lot of nothing! It was a little disappointing, but pretty much what I expected. She sent me to have bloodwork done to ensure that my levels were all increasing as they should be, and everything is just dandy! We go May 10th for another ultrasound at the hospital (where they have better equipment than my doctor's 30 year old ultrasound machine) and hopefully we will be able to see the baby and see/hear the heartbeat! My next appointment isn't until May 17th, and I'm not sure I will be able to stand the wait!
It all still seems so surreal, but I can not even begin to explain my excitement! I have always known that I wanted to be a mom, and to be totally honest, I've been bugging Clayton about kids since we got married! We had planned on starting to try sometime in the fall, so we will just be getting this precious baby a little sooner, which is a-okay with us!
I will try to keep this updated as I go through this pregnancy. I would really like to have this to look back on. That being said, I am absolutely terrible at keeping up with things like this...so we shall see! I've made this private (because I don't need the whole town of Lufkin reading my personal business) and I know there are people I missed. It is most likely because I don't have their email address. Soooo if you know someone I missed, please send me their email! Also, if you could keep things off facebook, that would be excellent!
To end this post...I will share a picture to make you laugh. I just had to be 100% sure (the digital ones that now say nothing said "pregnant" and one point in time.).....
