Great News!

I am almost 18 weeks pregnant in this picture. Starting to show the little baby bump:)




So, I am finally updating my blog! It is pretty pathetic that the last time I posted something was when I actually created this thing. Tagg and I have been married for almost 9 months now and we are so excited to say that a little Tagg Jr. or Julie Jr. will be in our lives soon. I am almost 18 weeks pregnant and my due date is July 17th. We both are so excited and can't wait to be parents. We moved into our house on October 1, 2009 and have loved having a place of our own. Of course I want to do a lot more decorating...but that will have to just come with time. It costs enough just trying to fill an empty house with only two people living there. The baby will help out with that:)

I have to say that I have been very lucky with my pregnancy so far. I have not thrown up once to this date and hope that I never do. I am past the nausea stage and feel like eating more often. I still get tired and want to take naps all the time, but that's normal for me:) I also just start crying sometimes and it only lasts a minute or so. Different things will trigger it... for example, when I was only about 7 or 8 weeks pregnant, I saw a homeless man on the side of the road and I just started crying for him. Normally I would feel bad for a homeless guy but I definitely would not just break down in my car about it! I felt so blessed and I just wanted to help this man.....I'm sorry to say that I did not stop to give him some money cause I was getting on the freeway and could not pull over. I guess that shows how much I really cared, right? I knew it was pregnant emotions but I do care about homeless people.
Anyway, being pregnant so far has been great and I'm excited for the rest of the journey and all the other fun things that lie ahead. Tagg and I truly feel blessed.
