Slight Change of Plans...

Well, if I could sum up the week in one sentence, it would be just that. "Slight change in plans."

Kent had been offered a position with VR Business Brokerages and was all set to move his license over this coming week. However, on Monday VR rescinded the offer.

We had also hired a new Leasing agent, who we liked at first, but became a complete flake. This week he told us that he can only do it part time. Ok...no thank you.

To top it ALL off, I'M PREGNANT!!! 

We were planning to start AFTER the summer, however I am now due September 15th. I will be the MOST PREGNANT at the HOTTEST part of summer :(

Kent is very excited, and I'm still trying to soak it all in. Hopefully I'll get a little more excited and feel more "mothery" as time goes on, because right now I'm just a little bummed.

Yesterday we went to Tucson to tell my parents. We told them that we were wanting to redecorate our home, so I brought some pictures of decorating ideas. On the 2nd page I had some pictures of nurseries and told my mom that was what we were going to do with the guest room. Her eyes got real big and she turned to me and said, "YOU'RE PREGNANT?!?!" Then Ken turned to us with big eyes and was like, "WHOA!!" So, they were very surprised!

And that was our week. Phew!

Congrats on being pregnant! Don't worry, you have 9 whole months to get used to the idea and to feel a lot more "motherly". :) You will be a great mom!

We really are excited for you! but it's totally understandable to feel a little bummed when this was not prepared for. I'm still struggling with wanting a second one... not that I have to worry about it yet, just to be clear! Call me if you want someone to talk to. Oh, and I want to hear more dish about it - I'm so nosy. :)

I'm so excited for you guys! Trust me it will sink in soon that you're adding a little spirit to your home. Enjoy your time together - it will be about 80 years before you'll have it again! Lots of love...Aunt Linda
