Wow so much has changed since I have last blogged, maybe that's because it's been over a year haha. Cor and I moved to St. Louis and bought a house close to his parents. Cor is working for his dad's company and going to school full time. He is so busy all the time but we are very greatful that he will be done with school next year. I am working at Barnes Jewish Hospital and it is a HUGE adjustment. It is one of the biggest hospitals in the country and has about 10,000 employees. Talk about a huge change from our hospital in Richfield where there is only about 30 beds in the whole hosptial. It has been very different but hopefully I can get a job at a smaller hospital.
Now for the really fun news, Cory and I are expecting.YAY!!! We are beyond excited and can't wait to meet our little baby. I decided to take a test one morning not thinking that anything of it and to my suprise it immediatley came up positive. It was 7:00 in the morning so I had to wake cor up to have him look at the test. I kept saying "is this real", well sure enough it was. We were so excited that of course we couldn't go back to sleep. I needed help telling my family, since I live half way across the country, so I told Whitney so she could help me tell the rest of my family.  She was talking to an adoption agency at the time so we had everyone thinking that she was getting a baby. She told the family that she had something to tell them and wanted me on skype to hear the news. I called Ashley and asked her if she knew what was going which really through her off cause she knows that Whit and I tell each other everything. When Whit got home she had all the family get together and Cory and I were there on skype. She gave my parents the present and when my dad pulled out the little outfit he didn't know what to think until he read to the card. It said, to Grandpa and Grandma love baby Baum due Feburary 22, 2013. They all started cheering and I of course started crying haha. It was so fun to finally tell them.
We told Cory's family the same one but in person. His mom pulled out the little outfit and she said "this isn't going to fit Baxter, who is this for". When they read the card they were so excited. This will be the first grandchild in their familly
Right now I am 14 weeks. I just got out of my first trimester, thank goodness. No it really hasn't been that bad. The worst part was that I was always tired. Our baby is the size of lemon. We find out what we are having at our next appiontment. My mom is convienced that it's a girl but Cory and I really don't care what we are having.
     
       Pregnancy Symotoms:

        I have to eat about every two hours or I get really nauseated.

         The thought of meat makes me want to throw up.

         I am not as tired but I get worn out easy.

         My pants are starting to get a little tight
       
         I haven't felt the baby yet but I can't wait for that
                                      
We feel so blessed to be able to be pregnant. It has been the best thing that ever happened to either of us. I am a very inpatient person so Febuary can't come soon enough.
