First Look

I went to the doctor 2 weeks ago thinking I was just getting some blood work done and they ended up giving me my first ultrasound! It was AMAZING!!! I now know what they mean by love at first sight! To see our little child was very emotional and I could even see it's little heart beating, wow!!! The good news is that it looks like only one baby in there. Although, Auntie Lyndsie swears that there is another one hiding in there somewhere. Here is the first look of our sweet little "Mango" (at 8 weeks it is the size of a kidney bean, you will see it on the left under the little bubble called a yolk sak, it looks like it is thinking or maybe dreaming of its parents).

We're Pregnant!!!

It is finally time for us to share the great news that we are officially pregnant! We are so excited to be sharing this news with you and we are still in a little shock that we are starting a family. I think Nolan asked me at least ten times if I was sure the test was right. Once I saw the doctor and brought him the report I made him stop asking. We were so lucky to be able to break the news to our parents in person, in Hawaii of all places. We told Grandma and Grandpa Lovingier when they got into Kauai and they were so happy they were speechless. Then we flew over to the Big Island of Hawaii to tell Grandma and Grandpa Real our big surprise. They were so excited for us as well and Grandpa Henry even cried! They were both so happy for us and so excited to be grandparents again. We can't wait to introduce our little Mango (Nolan's nickname for the baby) to everyone.
