"Yeah! Babies Everywhere!"

I think it is about time to announce the good news. Holly is pregnant! As you can see from the handy-dandy countdown, Holly is 13 weeks pregnant (on Wednesday at least). We found out on the 27th of December and really had no idea how far long she was. We went to go see the doctor 2 days later and she said, "well based on your most recent positive pregnancy test, (we had done several only a month earlier, all of which were negative) you are about 3 1/2 weeks pregnant."

To make sure though, she had us do an ultra-sound and we scheduled that for the following week. We went in and when the technician put the image on the screen I thought to myself... "I don't think she is 4 weeks pregnant..." It turned out she was actually 8 weeks pregnant and we were actually able to hear the heart beat that day! It was pretty amazing to see and hear all of that.

So, Holly's due date is August 18th. That probably isn't the best date because we will be moving to either D.C., San Antonio or Salt Lake City the middle of July and I begin medical school around the beginning to middle of August. Oh well, what can you do? But even with that time line, we are extremely excited.

Now, to explain the title of this post. Many of you are have seen the nutrigrain commercial where that quote comes from, but if not, check it out here. It is really funny and when we told Brooke that Holly was pregnant (Brooke is my sister who is on her mission in Singapore), she wrote in her letter, "Yeah babies everywhere!" She, of course, was referring to the fact that Holly and my Sister Leslie are both pregnant and Leslie had a baby (Miss Mary) just a year ago (who Brooke hasn't seen yet). Also, Holly's sister Melissa and Mary, Holly's brother's wife, are pregnant. So even more babies! Well, there is the good news!
