I had plans.

In July, Owen and I were finally going to get married at my dream church.

We were going to go on a honeymoon, probably to Hawaii, and party ourselves to oblivion (kid-free).

I was going to lose weight. I heard about Cinch from Catey, and was ready to start the diet. I had already purchased most of the foods and was a breath away from starting.

I got EA Sports on the Kinect so I could exercise every day at home. Not only was I going to lose weight, I was also going to get fit. Very very fit.

I was going to Florida with Belle for a girls weekend out with a couple of my friends.

I was taking Nathan to New York for CME and to Sacramento for ABR.

But the universe had other plans for us.

Meet Peanut. Our little surprise. Who jumped the gun. And had his own plans. And we are oh so happy that all our plans went awry.

Welcome to the party little Peanut. We can’t wait to meet you around Sept 12th.

    Congratulations! Another lucky baby to have you for a mom.

  12. Wow, what a surprise, You are going to one busy mama. Prayers that this pregnancy goes great. I’m amazed how many people I know that are pregnant. Just more little ones for Nathan to play with. I often wonder what it would be like to have another but I’m just getting to old and we just don’t have the room, plus I never have help and there’s no way I could handle another one. It’s always fun to have a suprise baby, my first 2 were. Can’t wait to here more about the little peanut.
