Yep, you read right. I headed to Wolf Trap to see Girlicious and the Backstreet Boys this past Monday. Surprisingly, I was impressed with the show. It was fun to sit with my girlfriends and reminisce my late youth. I proudly admit that I jammed to these boys, especially on long drives to visit Mitch in college.
And yes, I loved the beginning with the Rocky theme.

Telling the Family
This past weekend we called Mitch's parents and Russ and Michelle to give them the good news. We, also, had my family over for a famly brunch. We enjoyed a yummy lunch before giving my father a book, "Why I Love My Grandpa" and my mother, "Grandmothers Are Like Snowflakes."
It was so much fun and a relief to share our happy news with our families. Now, keeping quiet for another six weeks will be a struggle:)

Celebrating Six Weeks

Mitch is a Daddy
One of the most precious things to find out is that you are going to be a mommy. It is amazing to think that in 9 months you will bring a life into this world. And during those months you will house and protect your tiny baby. You will experience a closeness to your child that no one else ever will. It is an unexplainable feeling. You want to shout out to everyone that you are expecting a bundle of joy.
So, how do you share this amazing news with your husband. You shower him with gifts and books, of course. At least I did. I wanted Mitch to feel close to the baby, as well. So, I went out and bought onesies, Daddy and Me Books, stuffed animals, etc. I placed them all on the table in our home, so they would be the first things he saw upon arriving home from a 24-hour shift at the fire station.
Discovering you are going to be a mommy is a wonderful moment. However, seeing your husband's face sink in that he is going to be a daddy is the most memorable moment I have experienced thus far in our journey to parenthood.
