Hello Blogger World

So my best friend Megan recently became a blogger and said I should do the same. I’m not much of a writer so we will see how this goes!
Mark and I have had some pretty exciting things happen in the last few months. We made our first HUGE purchase together…we bought a house (or are in the process of)! It’s perfect! It is a 3 bedroom 1 ½ bath with a 2 car garage. We have a great size backyard with some nice shady trees. I’m just now getting everything the way I want it. We did a lot of work on the house, almost every room is a different color which I know sounds crazy but it actually works. My mom and sister came over this last Saturday to help me finish unpacking all the boxes we had in what will be the baby’s room!
Yes, we are expecting our first baby! I am due May 28th. I wonder how close to my due date we will actually have the baby. We had our 2nd doctor’s appointment a couple of weeks ago and got to hear the heartbeat! It didn’t sound like what I thought it would sound like, but it’s amazing to hear. Some days it’s still hard to believe that there is a baby really in there, especially since I’m over the whole feeling nauseous 24/7 thing. So now we are just waiting to find out if it will be a boy or a girl…then we can start painting the nursery! You can follow how the baby is growing on my baby timer; it is pretty exciting to watch! My only major craving has been for fried okra, and sadly not many places in town have it. The other day Mark and I went to KFC thinking surely I could get some there because that’s kind of their thing, and surprisingly they do not have fried okra. The only place I know of is Golden Chick, so if anyone knows of any other place I can get some or want to make me some let me know! Well, I guess that’s about it for today…until next time.
