Surprise!


Yup! Thats mine up there! I'm 14 weeks (3 months-ish) PREGNANT!  David and I are so very excited.  This has been a very hard secret to keep, but I am thrilled to tell all of you now.  

I am finished with my first trimester.  And yes -- that was part of the reason for my sabbatical.  For me, morning sickness really equated to extreme exhaustion... if I wasn't at work (trying to keep my eyes open), I was at home sleeping or in a comatose state on the couch -- not a lot of energy or enthusiasm left for blogging.  I never threw up, but David quickly learned there were certain things not to wave in front of me.  He has been so sweet and patient with me.  I could cry just thinking of seeing him be a daddy.  He will be the best!!

We are due early/mid July and will find out the gender on Valentines day!  I'll keep you posted on details and fun baby happenings as things progress.  I would love your prayers for baby McLeod, or as we like to call him/her -- McBaby.

So excited for y'all to know our news!  Thanks for being such a great and supportive community & for all your sweet comments yesterday.  

Have a super day!
