A Confession

The past seven months have brought with them an inordinate amount of change. All very, very good things :) Dylan started a new job in August that meant his traveling days were basically over – thank You, Jesus! Then, in January, I launched the new AFP – no weddings, all portraits. So maybe you saw it coming? Or maybe you didn’t. Either way, I have a confession to make… We’re having a baby!! Little babe Morrissey is scheduled to arrive in October :) And since I’m anticipating all sorts of the usual questions, I figured I’d answer them all in one fell swoop…

1) We found out on Super Bowl Sunday. Due October 9th. And I’m 13 weeks, 1 day along today! 2) I’m feeling pretty darn good, all things considered. I won’t bore you with details, but suffice it to say I consider myself one of the lucky ones. God knows I’ve dreaded the infamous first trimester for years. But He’s gone pretty easy on me and I’m so grateful :) 3) No intense cravings. I just like pasta a whole lot more than ever before… 4) We will indeed be finding out the gender, and are pretty sure it’s a girl based on intuition ;) And 5) we won’t be sharing name choices, so you’ll just have to wait and see!!

Thanks for your excitement, blog friends!!
