Pregnant!!

I woke up very early yesterday (about 4:15 am) and got ready for work. On the way to work I stopped at walmart and got one of those clear blue digitals. I went to my mom's house and took the test. It read "Pregnant" in about 30 seconds! I was so excited! I showed my mom and she was pretty excited too. She told me she can't stop thinking about it!


Digital readout - It says pregnant - really!
A very blurry pregnant readout.

I took a picture of the box, so dh could match up the blurry words from the test and the box when I emailed him the picture yesterday.



I can't stop thinking about it either! I haven't been able to sleep at all lately. I woke up about 2:00 am, just wide awake. And when I tried to go back to sleep my stomach started growling... Fiercely! So I had to get up and make something to eat. And then I was freezing. I go from hot to cold within seconds. Oh the fun is just beginning! :) I'm so happy though. I can't wait to see what he or she is going to look like and I can't wait to hold the baby in my arms. The estimated due date is July 25th, which is my mom's birthday. That would be a great present for her!


In knitting news... I've been working on my baby blanket, I'm probably a little over a 1/3 done. I want to do another blanket, or shawl actually... It's the one from Debbie Bliss's Special Knits book.

Debbie Bliss Shawl...
Another view, isn't that baby so sweet??


I may wait until I know what I'm having in four months, or make it in a gender neutral color like white or cream. Well, not much else going on here. Just had breakfast and still hungry. I'm going to be as big as a house before this is over!! :) Write more later!!

  2. Hey! Congratulations! I'm so pleased for you... being pregnant IS amazing, isn't it? Hope you are feeling well... By the way, I made a version of the Nothin' but a T as a maternity top and I've got my eye on making that Debbie Bliss baby blanket too, for this wee one due to chilly February!

  5. Hi there!
    Great blog! I got to it through a google search for the debbie bliss collared sweater. I'm mid way through it now and it seems like no one has made it! So I was just wondering, did you end up finishing it or did you just frog it? And info/tips/your opinion on the pattern would be greatly appriciated. My email is athena404@earthlink.net Thanks!

    ps-congrats on the news!
