For our very first date ever, Matt took me to Cornbelly's Corn Maze and we had a super awesome time together.
One year later, when we had been married about four months, we went back and recreated our first date (but with kissing and groping).
We had just decided to start trying to get pregnant, and I thought it would be so, so cool if I was pregnant when we re-created our first date. Although I didn't know it at the time, I actually was pregnant--but obviously that pregnancy didn't work out (don't worry though--it was about as untramatic as a miscarriage can be because I didn't know for sure that I was pregnant until I also knew that it wasn't going to be a successful pregnancy). But, it was our first month trying so I figured I was super talented at getting pregnant, so I'd just get knocked up next month.
Well, it did end up taking longer than I expected, but I am happy to report that when we went for our Second Annual First Date Recreation, I was pregnant again!
It took me about two days to get over the shock of learning she was a girl. I was really expecting a boy. But, I had my "come to Jesus" moment and I'm totally good now. A little girl will be just perfect.
Before going public about our pregnancy, I wrote one blog entry as a sort of pregnancy journal, but I didn't publish it. I had planned on doing several posts that way, but never got around to it. But I will publish the one now, just in case you're interested in it. It should be right below this one.
Matt and I are feeling extraordinarily blessed. We are so excited to have our little girl with us for our Third Annual First Date Re-creation next year.
Man, those 3 d ultrasounds are awesome. sheis good looking for sure.
