So, I have to say that this will probably go down in history as one of the best Christmases EVER!!!
Not only did Frank and I finally get our little bean, but we also had the opportunity to share the news with everyone we love! I wish I had a recording of my family's reaction! IT WAS AWESOME!!! All the yelling and screaming and I could have sworn I even heard a round of applause! It was right up there with the 15 minute scream fest of Frank's mom! We just feel so loved and supported!
Even better, I got to spend the first full week of my confirmed pregnancy with my mom and sister! They did such a great job of taking care of me . . . even if I really didn't need it! I have to admit that I was a bit teary-eyed as we drove them to the airport, to go home. It's hard to imagine that they won't be with me everyday of the next 40 weeks!
Actually, it's hard to imagine that most of you won't be here!
Ok . . . back to the happy stuff!
I'm also extremely happy that I get to share my pregnancy with one of my closest friends, Alex, who's pregnant with my Godson! YAY! Not to mention that I also get to share this experience with a very good friend of mine from Chicago, whose name I won't include until I get her permission! And, best of all . . . I get to share my entire pregnancy with my cousin Jacque, whose EDD is a mere 2 weeks before mine! How cool is that?!?! I see TONS of sleepovers in their futures!
Anyway, clearly my life is blessed! I'm truly one of the luckiest girls out there and I feel overwhelmed with happiness and gratitude and just plain old joy!
Thanks for listening!!

I agree, this is for sure the best christmas ever for you guys! Congrats again! I am just so excited every time I remember that a baby is on the way!! Now we just have to get you back to Illinois! Ha Ha!!
talk to you soon! :)
Desiree I feel as though this was the best Christmas ever also. And I'm glad that you and Jaque can share the experience of being pregnerant together. I can never stop thanking God for answering our prayers to bless you and Frank with child (s).
Desiree we are all excited for you, Frank, and Jaque, but I hate count downs. I swear it makes things go by so slow, so I'm going to try to ignore those parts about 40 more weeks and whatever else you said. I just wanted to let you know I will do your baby pictures for you, and I'll do the first pictures free. I just can't believe we will have a repeat of you and Jaque again.
I agree with Alex. We can't REALLY share this experience if you're not here! Your niece/nephew just did a flippy thing. She/He wants you two back just as much as I do...
