So, it's official... I've been diagnosed with a bad case of baby fever! I'm at "that age" when having a baby is definitely part of my short-term goals list and after being married for 7 years (this December), it's just the next step! Having a little baby is just what our house needs now, which means that we are trying and testing this year and waiting patiently for a bundle of joy!

We can't wait until we are blessed with a little one! It's going to be like Christmas morning, or even better than that, when I get a positive pregnancy test... and now that I can test with First Response 6 days before I even miss my period, we'll know when I finally get pregnant as soon as possible! I can't imagine the days when a woman had to wait to test, thank goodness technology has advanced!
