Our new blog!

Hello all! I decided to take a page out of my older sister's book and create a blog to share news with family and friends. As we all know, I like to talk (a lot) and this is the perfect spot to share stories with all of you at once. Of course, I had to name it after Chelsea Lately. I hope it is as entertaining as the show! I guess the big news to share with you all is that Giana is about to have a baby cousin! Joe and I are having a baby!!! We had our twelve week appointment today, and were able to hear the heartbeat for the first time. We have been lucky enough to have two ultrasounds so far, at 6 and 8 weeks, but Nugget (or Nugs as Auntie Alison likes to call the baby) is so small that it is not really recognizable as a baby. Now the body is fully developed, so our next ultrasound should be very telling!

Overall, its been a great twelve weeks. I have been lucky and not been too sick. Plus, a lot of snack foods make me nauseous, so I have been very healthy for the first trimester. I started to feel better this week and all I think about is food thats bad for you, so we'll see what happens in the next couple of weeks. I did find out that the half marathon that I have been training for since November is a no go, much to the delight of my dad (who was very worried about Nugget) and the run. I am still able to run, just not 13.1 miles. Maybe next year.

Auntie Alison and I went a little crazy with the clearance unisex outfits! With these and everything else Alison has gotten Nugs, I think our baby has more clothes at 3 months in utero than most babies due three months after birth!

We are so excited to share this with you all! We hope you all have a wonderful Easter!
