I knew I was pregnant, 3 months without a period - hello - pregnant!
But it is true when they say that seeing is definately believing. I had my first ultrasound on October 1st and the experience was probably one of the most surreal moments in my life. The moment the little wiggling, squiggling figure filled the screen it took all of my strength not to get misty eyed.
 Gary got a little choked up too but I think we were both trying to put on a strong front for the other. Don’t know why though … 
Now I have a tiny little photo of something that doesn’t quite look like a baby - but will be, one day, to look at to my hearts content. I never thought I would feel so…excited by the prospect of becoming a mother. I always thought, after practically raising my little sister and seeing the hassle my sister goes through with two children, that I wouldn’t ever want to be a mother. But I am, and I do.
I also, if I did wind up having kids, thought that I wanted only girls. But again, I guess reality and present circumstances have a way of changing one’s perspective. Now, it doesn’t matter in the slightest bit to me. Naturally Gary would love to have a boy (as all men want their boy) but in the end he would be happy regardless. I think he’s just thrilled that he’s finally going to be a daddy.
 He is going to make a wonderful father too.
 Already he’s talking to my itty bitty baby bump. And he’s been so incredibly attentive and supportive. Whenever I am having a ”bad” day, especially, he’ll make sure I am more then taken care of. He’s absolutely wonderful and I couldn’t possibly ask for anyone better to spend my life with then him.
It’s funny because we started out as the best of friends and developed the most amazing friendship and now that we’re together as a couple we’ve bonded in such a way that I don’t think it would have been possible if we hadn’t of been friends first. He knows me probably better then I know my self at times.
Gary and this baby are my two greatest blessings in this life. Â
