Hello Baby Edwards...
Our lives are changing in a very big, very wonderful way early next year.
We've known for just about six weeks now and have been doing a ton of celebrating with family (I am just over 12 weeks along).
The idea of a new little person in our lives is sinking in day by day. I am experiencing a crazy mixture of excitement, all-day nausea, grumpiness + mood swings, too-small clothes (which leads to more grumpiness), and that pure amazing this is really happening joy.
I am so hoping that I am coming out of the early pregnancy/first trimester fog (at least I really, really hope so) and am focusing on living fully and in the moment and not taking a minute of this for granted (easier said than done some of these days when all I want to do is sleep all day). As you might imagine I have a big list of things I want to do before this new person joins us and I have been crossing them off the list very slowly one by one.
Simon is pretty darn excited. He came with me to my doctor's appointment yesterday and really liked hearing the heartbeat (even though he was disappointed that he didn't get to see more pictures).
We are all pretty darn excited.
Life is a tremendously amazing thing indeed.

Ali!
Congratulations to you, Chris and Simon! I'm am soooooooo happy for you! I even told my husband, "Ali Edwards is pregnant!" My husband is so in tune with my scrapbooking that he actually does know who you are - hee hee! So from our family to yours we are sending a huge congratulations your way :) Our Vincent (who has autism) is best friends with his little sister Olivia. They are joined at the hip. Simon is going to have a blast!

As a mom with grown children, may I give you a little gem of advice from one of my favorite quotes? "Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you will look back and realize they were the big things"....so, enjoy those little moments with your little ones! Don't worry about a clean house, the perfect clothes, etc...and lastly...remember always who the most important person is in your life -- your husband! Tell each other every day that they are the best thing that ever happened in your life, and pause to kiss and hug each other at least once a day! Congrats, Ali!

Yay! That's such great news. I might just have a knack for spotting baby bumps cause I kind of suspected it when I saw you at Oakway... I didn't get a good look though, so maybe it was just the loose fitting shirt. ;) Such a fun time for your family. Can't wait to hear more as you meet/name your new family member.
