She is getting so big...

Last week was a week of firsts!  When we were in Atlanta she was sitting on my lap and we were talking.  All of a sudden she let out such a huge burp!  She had a surprised look on her face and she got the biggest smile.  She then blurted out a laugh that sounded like a toddler!!  Seth and I both looked at her and started laughing - which made her laugh even more.  It is so much fun trying to get her to laugh.  She has the most adorable laugh I have ever heard!

She also is ROLLING OVER!  I couldn't believe it.  She is still so tiny it looks funny to see her hold her head up while on her tummy and then role over to her back.  I am trying to get used to her being so mobile now.  I still have a few more months until I have to "baby proof" my house.  I will enjoy the last few days of a clean, well decorated house.  I know in the years to come my house will be decorated from about only waste high and up!  =) 

Time to get her into bed.  We are working on a 7:30pm bedtime!  Good luck to me!

The Announcement

To our parents:
We drove over to my parents house the day we found out. Seth had made a little picture slide show on his Mac with pictures of our bathroom remodeling. He also threw in the picture of us holding the pregnancy test somewhere in the middle of all the bathroom pictures. We told my parents we wanted to show them what was going on with the remodeling and that Seth made a video - nothing new. =) My Mom was holding the laptop and Heather and my Dad were standing close by. As soon as my Mom saw the pregnancy test she screamed (almost threw the laptop on the floor) and started crying. It took my Dad and Sister a second to catch on. Everyone was so excited!
Unfortunately, we could not drive to Atlanta to announce our wonderful news to tell Seth's parents. We had talked about driving up there and surprising them, but my cousin's wedding was that weekend and we were very busy. =( We made a phone call to the house and Gabe answered. Seth spent a few, very awkward, moments talking to him about nothing. He eventually found out that both parents were not home. We called the cell phones and tried to reach them. After not getting them for a long time they finally called! I remember Seth and I were driving and he said, "well...long pause...we are pregnant!" I think I started crying, and I could hear the screams on the other side of the phone. Again, everyone was so excited!

To our family and friends:
We made phone calls, showed up at people's houses and sent e-mails! We could not wait to get the news out! It was the best watching everyone's face when we told them. I loved every minute of it. A few that I will always remember are telling Megan McKelvey and George and Noelle. Very funny memories...=)
