Pregnancy In A Nutshell

Pregnancy... what an experience! I have to say.. when I found out that I was pregnant, I was terrified! So many questions were racing through my mind like "How am I going to raise a child when Im basically still one myself?" and "What will people think of me when they find out?" I was so worried about what other people would think of me. It wasn't the way it was supposed to happen, right? You're supposed to be married first and then the baby comes later.. That wasn't the way it happened for me.. In a sense, I had it all backwards, and itt took me a long time to accept it. I knew that I had a precious life inside of me, but it was soo hard for me to accept it. All summer, I was upset because I couldn't ski with everyone else and i couldn't eat sushi (which is my favorite food, btw) and I couldn't do all the things that I wanted to be doing the summer after I graduated high school.. Zak helped me with this, a lot. He helped me see the positivity in having a baby and what a blessing it is to bring a child into this world. Even though Zak isn't the father of my child, he treats this little one inside me as if he was his own. He has been truly AMAZING.

Okay, so I guess I started to really accept Kerrington when I saw him for the first time in an ultrasound. He had such big feet and we knew as soon as we started looking that he was a boy. It was an extremely emotional time for both me and my mom, because at that moment, I knew that she had accepted it too. From then on we couldn't wait for this little boy to come into this world!

Pregnancy hasn't been easy.. I have a been extremely sick and very very tired for a lot of the time, but it has been such a rewarding experience.. Kerrington's kicks and punches, although a little annoying at times (especially when I'm trying to sleep at night and he's keeping me up) are what make all the needles and poking and Dr. appointments all worth while. 

I know I don't have too much time left and that I'm starting this Blog a little late, but I needed somewhere to put all the emotions I'm feeling, because I know not everyone on facebook really cares about the emotional part of me! haha 

Oh and on a side note, here's a picture of a part of the nursery! :)

I'm so excited to move this pak-n-play out of here and actually get a crib, because I LOVE the sheets and comforter I got for it! Im going with a Jungle Theme!
