Tempting Fate

Like I said earlier, we are terrified of tempting fate by telling people about our poppy seed. But is tempting fate to share? Or is tempting fate keeping it to ourselves? Such a blurry concept. To us, it seems right to wait and tell people. We can have this little intimate secret between us and can think up grand schemes to tell our loved ones. Granted, we've already got most of those "grand schemes" planned and have for a long time since Jacob and I are so baby crazy. We feel so blessed by our little Christmas surprise, but we are very cautious.

Anna was here earlier, with cheese(Creamy Swiss Laughing Cow- yum!), cake, and ice cream. Oh man was it yummy, but I couldn't help but do a mental calorie and sugar count because I want to be healthy for my baby. After the new year we will be saying that I am on a diet, but for now people raise eyebrows when I refuse yummy treats. (Sorry Anna!) It is very unlike me to decline on cheese or ice cream so, really, I don't blame them. When they ask why I just want to burst, "because I'm pregnant!" but its way to soon for our comfort.

We can't wait to tell people, and open this blog up to our loved ones... but until then its a little secret between us that we are just bursting to tell... Especially me with all of this gas!

Sorry we didn't tell you sooner! Love always- The Christians- Jacob, Jess, Cricket, Courage, and the Poppy Seed growing in my uterus!
