Some Long Anticipated News!

This Easter was a lot of fun I was able to have all my family present (minus one sister) and Sam's family together. The Chapman family sang in Sacrament and then had a nice big dinner afterwards. Then all the nieces and nephews went a did an easter egg hunt.



And then my niece finds this "special" egg that everyone has to gather around to see what's inside

And this is what it said...


YEP Sam and I are finally...





I took 6 tests because I didn't believe it. We actually found out on March 26 and told the whole family on Easter with the "special" egg. We were dying to tell them, we kept it a secret for 2 1/2 weeks, killer. We were able to get the whole surprise on film so I'll try and post that. I had my first prenatal visit yesterday and will get the first ultrasound in a week. We are very excited and have tried for a long time. I actually started going to the doctors to get tests done to find out if there was anything wrong and then BAM we get pregnant so the doctors probably think I'm wierd for getting all these tests done when there really wasn't anything wrong. I know that this is a major blessing to have and will enjoy every minute. I already have a pooch but the doctor says it's normal. Here are some side view pics
We thought I was a little over 4 weeks here


A little over 6 weeks

7 weeks

The baby is suppose to be the size of a blueberry
