My outlet until I can tell my world my secret
I’m officially growing a baby! It is that blob right there, conveniently labelled “baby.” :) I’m also officially bad at secrets. So far I have told: my parents, sisters, E’s parents and sister, two girl friends and two sets of couple friends. All were in person — it is quite obvious that something is up when I’m not drinking and totally lame/tired. But I was super sneaky and tricked everyone on St Pattys. I brought my own “cocktail” to the house party. The constant thirst and trips to the bathroom totally mimic drunken behavior. Is it weird that I get a little thrill ordering a drink at the bar with the directions to “make it look like it has alcohol in it?” Probably. Gotta take cheap thrills these days. 5 more weeks and then done with this tri! Can’t wait :)

OMG I have a secret. And it is the BEST. But I am the worst  at keeping secrets. Seriously, don’t tell me anything super private - I will most definitely tell my husband E. Luckily, he was a part of this secret from the beginning. This was our second month TTC and I definitely thought it was a no go. But I decided to POAS Sunday morning anyway and to my surprise - it was faintly positive.  Woo hoo! So far just two of my besties know - one that could tell something was up bc E and I had brunch with her right after the BFP. The other called me that same day to share her exciting news- that she is expecting! This blog will be my outlet until I can tell everyone (week 12 perhaps). Oh man, we are officially on the road to grown up status!! Can’t wait for this adventure!
