2013 has been great to us so far and we can't wait to see what the rest of the year will bring!
We found out we were expecting mid-February. After talking for a few months at the end of 2012 about trying for a baby, and talking to our doctor, we decided we'd start trying at the beginning of the year. We honestly thought it would take a little bit before it actually happened, boy were we wrong!
I still remember dropping Adam off at the airport for a 3 (yes, ONLY 3) day business trip and calling my cousin, Maniwan, crying my eyes out. Adam and/or I have always had to travel for work since we've been married. Some international trips have even spanned over 2 weeks, but for some reason I was really broken up about this trip. She was convinced I was pregnant already. "I kept saying, no way! It's only the first week of February and it HAS to be too early to have signs."
I waited for Adam to get back and decided to take a test that weekend, it took a while but that second line showed up. We were both excited, but also nervous that it may be a false positive. So we decided to wait another week and took 2 more tests -- when you're REALLY pregnant that other line pops right up!
We also began building a new home in October of 2012, and moved in the first week of March 2013. It was great watching everything happen and being apart of every process from start to finish, it's amazing how fast they can put a home up these days!

Moving all of the boxes and furniture went pretty smoothly, especially thanks to the Mooney's and my Uncle Kak. Adam did a large chunk of the boxes each day himself as well, as I couldn't lift very much. He's convinced I planned it just right ;) We've been gradually unpacking since then and are just about done (2 months later) sorting through and putting everything away. Next big project -- baby preparations!
Like I said, the year has started off great for us and we're feeling very happy and grateful.
Love,
Christina
