Happy New Year!

This blog will be turning into a family page. My husband decided that "blogging is for chicks". So he will now leave it up to me to update any exciting news that we have in our lives and he will be retiring his. Sad.

Update:
We had Thanksgiving here in Ut with my Family. Played a lot of Guitar Hero (which i rock at) and ate a lot of food.

For Christmas we went to Reno and had it with Sean's family. We stayed for about a week. Went to Lake Tahoe, saw movies and ate.

For New Years Eve we had a little slumber party at our place. Played Rummikub, Taboo and again Guitar Hero and ate.

Overall, i think we had a fantastic holiday. I have pictures to go along with these special occasions but I'm not quite sure where they are at the moment.

And finally, the biggest news of all.........

I just so happen to be pregnant! I am 11 weeks along and today we heard the baby's heart beat for the first time! Friends, I thought it would be easier to just post the exciting news on here because I can never get a hold of anyone, and lets just be honest, its much easier this way.

Love, Jill

YAY! I am so excited for you guys. Glad we get to be prego together and can complain together. I hope you are feeling ok. You gotta read The Girlfriends Guide to Pregnancy. It is hilarious.

I"M SO EXCITED! not that we ever get to see you, but maybe down the road our little babies (10 weeks apart) can be friends! Yes, ali is right-the girlfriend's guide is great-read it, but you'll have to do all your compaining with her because I am not complaining one bit yet (woohoo!). are you going to find out the sex at 16 weeks or wait till 20? do you have a great doctor yet? i have recommendations for the best ones around....

Your typing sounded a bit more whaleish than usual. Must be the chubby fingers? JK, I totally haven't seen you yet so it's a total joke!!! You are probably the second cutest pregnant chick ever (first). You cute little manatees .

Congrats.

Thanks everyone! We are really excited.

Liz, I do have a Dr and I hear he is the best! But I think most everyone thinks their Dr is the best :)

Best news ever! I can't wait to see you fully pregnant. I'm sure you will be so fashionable and make me jealous!

I hate you, I hate you, I hate you. I don't care if blogging is easier, I expect a phone call, a letter and a personal email when it comes to news such as this! Please, when I was pregnant with Malloy, I think we went to lunch and I showed you a picture of him as a fedus! I am so excited, what are you going to name him/her? One name that I love if it is a girl is Juliette- it has a great ring to it, not very common and I know some wonderful people with that name. Oh Jill congragtualions!!!!

The Meachams said...
