You're invited...

I began what was formerly "The Belly Blog" in order to share our journey through maternity. Well, for whatever reason, I dropped the ball. Being that Tucker is now 19 months old, I could never possibly totally bring it up to speed, so I'll just start anew. I want to be able to record ideas and notions for Tucker to have one day. I want to remember what it's like day by day.

I also would like to invite you to share memories and/or pictures of my mother. It makes my heart very sad that Tucker will never know her and that I'll never know her as an adult woman knows her mother. I want to be able to pass my memories of her on to Tucker. If you have a thought, please add it. Many thanks!

Dominican Dilemma







So, we were off to a wonderful vacation, but it was hard to relax when we couldn't think of anything else but what was going on inside of my body. One of the greatest perks of an all-inclusive resort is the food! Unfortunately for me, though, I had to watch everything I put in my mouth. By mid-week I had finally let my mind ease a bit, and I had gotten pretty good at passing up the huge dessert, pasta, and bread sections. Wesley and I walked the pool that meandered around the resort every day and had underwater swimming races. (Don't ask. It was Wesley's idea. I must admit, though, we did laugh a lot.) We then flew into Atlanta and stayed a couple more days with Tammy and Wendy, which is always a good time.

Each day on our vacation we let our news sink in a little more, but we were too scared to talk about our future too much. We have so many friends who have had trouble conceiving and carrying babies, so we were cautiously optimistic that we would actually become parents. Goodness knows that anything could happen, so we still are proceeding with guarded hearts.
