The Good News!!

Welcome to our baby blog! We are both so happy Chrissie is pregnant! Chrissie suspected she was pregnant the first week of October and two home pregnancy tests came back positive. When she came to me and said "guess what?" I knew right away she was pregnant. The results were confirmed by a lab test on the 2nd of October.

Right now our nickname for the baby is "poochie". Our first appointment with the doctor was on October 14th. It was a routine appointment where the doctor asked a bunch of questions and everything was normal. She said our expected date is May 27th, and our next appointment is Nov 17th where we'll have an ultrasound done.

Chrissie has been feeling a little tired, as can be expected. Luckily, no real morning sickness yet and just an increased appetite. I affectionally call her "foodzilla" but obviously she's eating for two; plus it gives me a reason to eat ice cream!

We hope to get some pictures from the ultrasound that we'll post here and I'm thinking about taking the video-camera with us to record it also. Hopefully we'll be able to see little poochie!
