And I didn't get to any of those bc we went into the doctor's office the next morning at 10:30am and Jacoby was here at 3:30pm! I didn't get around to finishing any of my posts, but I had saved all the pics and was in the process of writing stuff to go along with the pictures...
I got way too busy after Jacoby came and battled postpartum for a couple months, so I never got around to updating. I wanted to write down a few things at least, so I can always remember the memories of carrying my precious, firstborn :)
I put together my 29th birthday party, so I could get Ryan & Bekah here without being obvious. I told them Jacob wanted to celebrate my last birthday in my 20's, but according to all them, they were already suspicious. Jacob took a picture of us before we went out for my bday dinner and after the "1, 2, 3" we said "We're pregnant!!" and then we captured all their faces :) Priceless moment!!
Bekah and Daddy were the first ones to catch on
Then on March 10th we met up with Jr, Heather and the kids at one of Jacob's track meets. I slept in the car for a while bc I remember having a horrible migraine. Tylenol DOES NOT work! We all headed over to Napolis to meet up with Sharon, Ralph, Krystal, Kayleigh, Alyssa and Danny to celebrate Sharon's and my birthday. Since the first time I ever met her was on her birthday 5 years earlier and Jacob gave her a fake "We're pregnant" birthday card, I only thought it appropriate to do it for real this time :) It said something to the affect of "Five years ago Jacob thought it'd be funny to introduce his new, pregnant girlfriend...(in the inside was the sono pic) but this time it's for real!" And oh the look on her face :) another priceless moment!
And I'll never forget the headache and the nausea all the way home!!! My sweet husband had to pull over for me to throw up all my cheese ravioli with marinara and jumped out of the car to hold my hair...and then in Jacob fashion commented on the smell haha
13wks pregnant
I remember being so fearful of losing Jacoby my first trimester since I couldn't feel him yet. I only had the morning sickness as my indication that I was still pregnant. The verse I clung on to that whole trimester, and for the rest of my pregnancy, was Job 12:10 "In His hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind." He had my unborn baby's life in His hand and I had to find comfort in knowing the Creator of the Universe was breathing life into my child...His child!
