I Am Pregnant!

Yes, I am pregnant, for exactly 11 weeks today. Now I know how true it is that it's not a joke carrying a child. Everyday is a roller coaster of emotions; but I am happy. The Husband and I are ecstatic! :-)


They say that when the time comes, you know (or something like that!) I've been delayed for many times but 2 months ago, I did not joke about it to The Husband. I had this feeling that maybe now, this is it.

We're not really nagmamadali, whenever a friend is asking kung kelan namin balak, we always say, "kung kelan ibibigay ni Lord". And we know that having a baby is a very serious matter, what with all the gastos and all the adjustments you need to make. We know we'll have a child pero hindi namin ini-stress ang sarili namin on having one the soonest.

So as I said, two months ago, when I took that pregnancy test, I was saying to myself "Desi, okay lang kung negative" because I know I'll be disappointed if its not positive. I know that I said na hindi kami nagmamadali but it doesn't mean na hindi pa namin gusto. Siguro we have fears lang.. of the future.

So I took that test when Husband is asleep. So pee, pee, pee, drop, drop, drop, one minute, two minutes, three minutes..

And then..

POSITIVE!

I can't believe it at first. I have never felt so many emotions at once! Of course I am excited..but there are those other nervous things on my mind.

So ginising ko si Husband, and I asked him "Two lines ba 'to?" Medyo blurry yung isang line so nagda-doubt pa ko.

And then The Husband looked at me with that, I don't know.. "beatific" (???) smile, well, that's the first thing that came into my mind when I saw him smile that time, basta I know it's different from all his other smiles. I know that he's sobrang happy. He hugged me and told me "hon, magkaka-baby na tayo!"

And amidst all doubts, fears, uncertainties and all the questions in my mind, I know that we'll be okay. That I'm looking to a man who would do everything for me and our baby. And as the song says "All of my doubts suddenly goes away somehow".

As they say, you're never really *ready* to have a baby, so I guess there's no time like the present :-) Just praying and thinking happy healthy thoughts!

So, This is ME..

Hey, this is my 4th time to create a blog.. *crossing my fingers that this will be the last :)*. It's not that I'm lazy to update my blog, but sometimes the moment had passed that I'm not in a mood to write about it.. (okay, I guess, I'm lazy).

Aubrey, my friend, gave me an inspiration to blog again. I always read her blog, and everytime I do it, I'm like "Oh, I want to do this (the blogging) too".

So here I am..

As you can see from the right side of this blog, my name is Desiree :):) And no, I did not say those words after my name. It is actually a quote from Frederick S. Perls. I'm not yet too inspired to put my own words there, so that will do for a while.

I am blissfully married for 1 year and 4 months now :) When I say blissful, it's not that our relationship is perfect, we have lots of ups and downs too, but at the end of the day, i have somebody i can rely on, through thick and thin, good times and bad; and I think we are really committed to love each other that those  down moments were okay. Some of you may want to say "Oh shut up, 1 year and 4 months??? you're still in the honeymoon stage". But believe me, I know! I am confident that I found a man who can put up with me, NO MATTER WHAT! and I will have the rest of my life with him, hopefully 60-70 years together :):)

Yes, I do think I'm one of the luckiest girl in the world. :):)

One of our "Happy Photos" from our wedding :):)

And here's another news about me: I AM PREGNANT! 10 weeks and 5 days today. But I think this deserves another blog entry, so bye for now.

Here's to hoping that I will update this blog as frequently as I'd like to be! :):)
