Bun in the Oven

As many of you already know... I'm pregnant!! Micah and I are having a baby September 3, 2009. Obviously it was a HUGE shock for both of us, but we are both getting used to the idea and getting excited about being parents!!

We found out I was pregnant on Micah's first day working for Ernst & Young and the day I won my first trial. It was a big day - to say the least. While both of us knew we wanted kids eventually, neither of us expected it to happen this soon (or in this order for that matter).


In the beginning my thoughts were consumed with questions of how I was going to manage graduating from law school in May, taking the bar exam in July, and then having a baby in September. But at the end of the day, I knew that this was life throwing us a curve ball and the details would all work themselves out. A baby is on the way, and I want to be excited about it - not scared or stressed.

The past month has been rollercoaster ride for both us. Between work, school, ultrasounds, breaking the news to friends and families, and completely remodeling our kitchen we haven't had time for much else.

The baby is currently 2.5 - 3 inches big - think peach size. We can't wait to find out the sex. Of course Micah wants a boy, but I'll be happy either way. Three months and counting...
