It's Time To Talk About It!

I have been debating for awhile when I can start talking about the biggest thing that's going on in our life. I have felt like since it wasn't done the right way that I can't really talk about it and I need to try to "hide" it as much as possible. I was thinking the other day how ridiculous it is to hide something that is so incredible!! Another reason why I haven't felt comfortable talking about it is because of the fear of what others will think of me or even think that Conner and I HAD to be married rather than the truth which is we were going to be married, but it came a few months quicker than originally planned!! We all know that even though we're not suppose to judge, everyone does it!! Throughout this whole process I have been told to just not care what others think...and that has been a really hard thing for me to do! But lately I have really realized that if people choose to judge us and think we are some horrible people then that really is their own problem right?? :) Sorry if that sounds a bit harsh...I know that the people who really love and care about us and know our intentions are all really excited and happy for us!
So anyways...I'm sure almost everyone by now knows exactly what I'm talking about, but if not, Conner and I are going to have a baby!!! The thought of that still doesn't seem exactly right, but the bigger and bigger I get the more I realize it really is happening!! Even though things didn't really go as expected, Conner and I are both so excited to have our little baby and right now we wouldn't want things any other way! We are also very anxious for the day that we will be able to be sealed together and to our baby!! That is one of the biggest days we've got to look forward too!
I am 24 weeks today and it seems like I just get bigger each day :(. (There really is NO way to hide a pregnancy in my opinion!!) I have tried to teach my dear husband that the words FAT and Chubby just aren't very appropriate during this special time!! haha it was kinda hard for him to understand given the fact that all he really was meaning was that my belly is surly growing!! But I think he knows now after having me flip out a few times that he is just better of saying things like "your stomach is getting bigger" rather than "Come here my fat little princess!" haha oh I love that kid!! We found out a while ago that we are having a baby boy, and I have never seen Conner so excited then the day we found out! There are two things I'm most excited for and that is of course to meet my little baby, and also to see Conner with him!! I know he is going to be so an amazing daddy and I can't wait to see their little father-son bond!!
I'm pretty sure this is probably the most I have ever talked about it, and it still just seems so unreal! I feel way to young to be having a baby, but when we look at age I'm almost right with the Utah trend! At least I'm following in my sisters footsteps...age wise!!
Well there you have it...The biggest & happiest news in the Edwards' home is officially spoken about!
