It's a Boy! He's 8 lbs!The doctors were worried that my baby was too small, since I didn't show much when I was pregnant. They had me do many ultrasounds to check his size and still didn't know how big he would be until he was born. He was perfectly healthy :)
Would you be my girl please?
When my boyfriend nervously ask me to be his girlfriend three years ago!
MrsPremise says,
Aww! Sweet story on the boyfriend thing, MsMins!That was some big boy you had there, too! I'm glad he was healthy, he sounds like he could've hit the ground running!

Too many to count.Most recently, the addition of a puppy to our home. He makes me laugh out loud everyday and gives unconditional love. Can't beat that combination.

"Grow old with me," he said.Wench says,
Aw, marymc, I got choked up reading that. "Will you marry me?", marrying him, two days after our wedding when we were totally settled in on honeymoon with NO obligations, the pink line, the three following pink lines to make sure, hearing the heartbeat, getting him to flip head-down when my husband spoke to my belly, giving birth in the quiet of a November night in a cottage, his first smile, the way he giggles when I kiss his tummy... Sorry, you were right, there's way more happiness!Wench says,
Oh also, seeing the ultrasound and watching him move and stick his tongue out. "He's cute! He's only 24 weeks and he's already cute!"Wench says,
Aw crap, forgot about the six words part, sorry!!!KharisJo says,
First time looks, my children's eyes.Loving special people. Realizing I'm loved.
MrsPremise says,
These are all so beautiful! They remind me of similar moments that still make me smile, even if the story didn't work in the long run.@Wench--really? He stuck his tongue out for the ultrasound? :-)
Wench says,
Yeah, it was amazing. It made up for the shock that he was very shamelessly NOT a girl as I was sure he would be.lillybrook says,
