Ok so its about time for some happy news.  And here it is.  At long last I can tell the world - Bryan and I are having a baby!!

We had our 12 week scan on Tuesday 17th March when we were told that the tiny wee thing was actually 11 weeks and 1 day old.  Our current due date is 5th October, although obviously that may change!!  The midwife had said the 29th September which is Bryan’s Mum’s birthday and in between my parent’s birthdays so that was a nice thought but it will be nice if they can all keep to different dates!!

Here’s the wee chap!  There are a couple more photos from the scan on my Flickr page.

It was lovely timing to get the scan and to turn 12 weeks, when things get a lot “safer”, as we were able to tell our family on Mother’s Day weekend.

We visited my parents on Saturday and had lunch with them, and then visited Ray, Nicole and Lucas on the way back up and then Bryan’s Dad and his wife Sasina.  Then on Sunday we went to visit Bryan’s Mum and his brother came over with his family so we were able to tell all of them at the same time.

We got lovely responses from everyone, although I think my father in law was the only parent not to say something embarrassing - but obviously I won’t share those comments with the world!! 

Last night I told my work that I will need 9 months off, they took it well, bless them, so now I can tell the rest of the world!

I’m PREGNANT!!!!

Oh and it occured to me that I never posted a picture of our spare room when we decorated it last year.  Obviously it will be the nursery one day.  So we did it a lovely sea blue, it currently has a Little Mermaid theme but if we end up with a little boy it will easily transform into Pirates of the Carribean or other sea theme with shark stickers and stuff.

With thanks to Berri for the inspiration for this blog post title.
