Dr Appointment

I had my monthly check-up today and everything is going great. Aaron went with me, like he usually does, but today he got to hear the baby's heartbeat. I heard the heartbeat at my last appointment, but my mom went with me instead of Aaron, so today was the first time Aaron heard it. The baby was playing hide-n-seek with the nurse and it took her a little bit to find it, which naturally scared me a little bit. All is well though, the baby's heart rate is 166 beats per minute and the nurse predicted a boy. Dr. Blann will not do the ultrasound till I am about 21 weeks, so 5 more weeks to go before we can find out what the baby is. I guess I can wait till then, although I am getting tired of calling my baby "it", but it will be worth the wait. I have not gained any weight yet, (for the first time in my life) but Dr. Blann said it is nothing to worry about. It is weird to me that the one time in my life I want to gain some weight, I don't, but I figure it will happen sooner than later. I should gain around 12-15 pounds this trimester, so I guess it will be coming.

Other than baby news, there really is not a whole lot going on in our lives. One of Aaron's closest friends is getting married Saturday, so we will be doing wedding stuff all weekend, which should be fun. Aaron is also going to be in golf tourney in Ruidoso right after Labor Day, so I guess I have to let him practice a lot in the upcoming weeks. He is really excited about the tourney, and I hope he does really well, and if not, we get to go to Ruidoso, so it is a win, win situation for us. I guess that is about going on right now.

Love,

Kasey

Hello World

Hello Blogging world, welcome to our page. I am Kasey Ledbetter (formerly Humphreys) and I have been married to the greatest man alive, Aaron for 4 months now. He is my hero and I could not have asked for a better man.

Our story is sort of a fairy tale. We met August 2007, when I started working at Furniture Row. We were both in relationships when I started, but we quickly became friends. After 2 weeks of working there, I broke up with my boyfriend and Aaron soon broke up with his girlfriend. Since then, we have been inseparable. Of course, the first 8 months we had to date in secret, due to company policies, but most people knew that we were in love. Aaron swept me off my feet and I knew within a couple of weeks of dating, that he was the man I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. In April 2008, I quit my job at Furniture Row, and we could finally be a real couple, which was the best feeling ever!! July 1, 2008 he popped the question, and without even hesitating I said,"YES". March 21st, was the big wedding day and it was by far the best day of my life. Most of it is still a blur, but I do know that I married the man of my dreams. So that is our short fairy-tale. We meet, we fell in love, we were hitched.

Then we got the surprise of our lives...after only 3 weeks of being married...I ended up pregnant. Which leads us up to now. I am currently 16 weeks, pregnant and due January 11, 2010. We were not planning on a baby this fast, but it was out of our hands and we could not be happier, after the initial shock wore off. I have always dreamed of being a mom and cant wait to meet our little one. I got back to the Dr. on Tuesday (7-28) and I am hoping they will surprise me and do a sonogram, but I am not holding my breathe.

Thanks for following our blog and I will keep everyone updated on our little one.

Love,

Aaron & Kasey
