That I am pregnant. Well that is one rumor that is true! Zack and I are expecting our first baby April 2011. Today I am 17 weeks, so just over 4 months. It is so crazy. We did not think that we would end up with a little one for a few more years and not without a lot more tears but surprises happen and things come in the Lord's time. I know that we are given trials and for us getting this little one has been a heartache, so I am really just trying to savor the moment. It is crazy for me to think that our little family is expanding now after so much time just the two of us but we are so excited for this next step and I really cannot believe it is actually happening! Most days it seems like I am living someone elses life. I do not feel like I am pregnant and I am so used to everyone else being pregnant that this is all surreal to me. I love it but I have no clue what I am doing or what to look for. Hopefully I will have some sort of natural instincts when the baby actually comes. I think it might get more real when I can start feeling the baby and when we find out what we are having, which should be sometime in December. We have really enjoyed the last four months and I have been feeling really great. Which has been a huge blessing to me because of my school schedule.
I am due the 21st of April which is the last day of finals so I am hoping that this little one can just stay in there until at least the 22nd or 23rd I don't think I would even complain about the 24th. But whatever happens happens and we can handle it and I know we will be given the strength necessary to get through, LIFE IS GOOD! Actually it is GREAT! Sorry for all my ramblings there is so many emotions and thoughts running through my mind. But here is the fun part a few pictures of Baby Ludlow (I still can't believe I am writing that. 3 1/2 years of wanting one of these will do that to a girl) :) Sorry they are kind of blurry but here they are. The second one is my favorite, because his/her facial features are very distinct, you can tell more in my photo not the picture of a picture. During the ultrasound the baby was moving like crazy, the arms and legs were going everywhere and the baby kept moving. The ultrasound tech told us we have a mover and a shaker on our hands and I believe that one 100%, I mean look at the parents. :)

Congratulations! That is such exciting news. You guys will be awesome parents!
This is so amazing! As you know I've had six, but when I was pregnant with Rebekah it wasn't really real until she was born and came out - real! Before then I just accept congratulations as I felt sick. It was nice when the baby moved but actually having the first one born is really the miracle!!
