An addition to the Garrett Family!


For those of you who haven't heard yet, or those who just want a little update, I am officially pregnant and Matt and I are expecting our first little one on August 15th, 2008! (Hopefully a little sooner since it's in the middle of the HOT summer!) We are so excited to embark on this new adventure of parenthood and start our family.
I had my first doctors appointment today and got to see the ultrasound of the little being that is starting to form inside of me, it was so neat! I could see the heart beating and everything. The doctor said it was still a little too early to actually hear it, but next visit we will. My appointment wasn't supposed to be till next week, but we're going to Disney World on Friday, so it had to get bumped up! Seeing the pictures today made it all seem a little more real, because for awhile there I kept wondering, "what if I'm not really pregnant and I just randomly missed two months in a row and the test showed up positive?" Anyways, now I know it's real, and I'm SO excited! I can't wait to find out what it's going to be :)
