Tomorrow I will be headed out for my last bike rally for a while. This is a trip my hubby and I have made every year that we have been married, and he won't get to be there this year. He is still activated with the State Guard helping with shelters & evacuees from Hurricane Ike. I don't think the trip will be quite the same without him. However, because of our recent news of the pregnancy, I feel like I should get one last ride in! My bike will be parked in the garage for a while after this trip. SAD, huh?!
Despite the sadness of not riding my bike for a while, I am thankful for the opportunity to finally have a little one of my own! The queasy stomach I've had for the last several days has not been fun, but I know it is normal and just more confirmation that this is the real thing. WOW, I still find it hard to believe. I haven't told my boss or co-workers yet, because I'm still a little nervous about how things will change. I don't want to be treated like a disabled person, but I know there will come a time later in the pregnancy that I will have to back off of the heavy lifting. My 1st appointment with the OB/GYN is October 6th. I plan to visit with him about all of my concerns before I break the news to the boss.
Thanks for all the "congratulations" you sent regarding the announcement!

Praise the Lord! I'm so excited for you and Jeff! Yes, being a parent is VERY different from being a step-parent and you will be awesome! I've wondered if you and Jeff would have children and I'm so thankful that God KNEW you would be perfect for the job. God bless you both! Yes, your life is going to change starting NOW! Take care of yourself. Keep blogging.
