July 30th, 2011: Its a Big Fat Positive!!!

The final test that confirmed I am PREGNANT!

I woke up one day and just had the urge to test. I tested with a dollar brand and to my surprise there's a 2nd line!!! I could not believe it, so I tested again and again. I tested about 5 times just so I know I wasn't just dreaming lol.

 I called my sister and my bestfriend to share the good news and to get an idea if I am truly looking at the right result lol. I waited to call TJ because I wanted to share the great news with him in person so i can see his reaction. I am so happy I waited because the look in his face was priceless and I would have missed it if I just called him over the phone. Here's my happy loving husband after finding out that he is going to be a daddy soon : )

I tied the test with a balloon and left it outside the front door

Finally...

I have been trying to motivate myself to start a soon-to-be mommy blog but my energy is just not up for it lately. Well, it's FINALLY here!

This blog is dedicated to my little boo boo BOY due in April of 2012. A journey to Mommyhood and in this journey my ever so loving husband Timothy will join me.

Just a little background about my life as an individual, a daughter, a sister, a wife, a photography hobbyist, a dog owner, and now a soon to be mommy:

I'm 28 years old. I'm a college graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Management. I attended the University of South Florida (Go Bulls!). I'm independent, loving, caring, fun, and sentimental kind of person. I know what I want and need, so, I set my goals accordingly.

I'm the youngest of 5 girls, my dad was not named Romeo for nothing lol. My dad is definitely a gentle giant, a hard working father, and a great singer too. My mom is a great example of a real housewife with super powers hehehe, not only she's an awesome cook but an energizer bunny... She can keep going and going and going.

At the age of 14, I met the man of my dreams. I have always said I will marry a man who has the same character as my father. I am so blessed to have found him. He is the best match for me, he is a kind hearted man, a great friend, and a pretty funny guy too. He is definitely my knight and shining armor. I love him with all my heart.

I became fond of photography, I guess I have found my calling but for now I'll remain a "hobbyist." I have however, done quite a few photoshoots, from portaits of newborns, toddlers, pregnant friends, couples, pets, all the way to small weddings. I love photography because it's a way to capture moments that everyone can revisit and enjoy.

My husband and I, own two cute little doggies named Shadow & Mouschkie. They are the life of our home when we're not there. They are definitely our entertainment. Shadow is a Lhasa Apso and Mouschkie is a mix Lhasa Apso & Shih Tzu.

At last, the biggest surprise and blessing of my life, I'm a soon-to be-mommy to a baby boy due in April. One of my dreams, is to be a mom. Timothy and I, patiently waited for this time to come, he is truly a blessing. As I mentioned before, I came from an all girls siblings, so can you imagine how excited our families are to have the first Grand Son? I made it a point to deliver the great news to my dad first, after all he has been out numbered for many years lol.

Thank you so much for taking your time to read my first entry, I hope you continue to follow this journey I'm taking. Have a wonderful day and I hope to see you soon.

From Junie with Love :)

Anatomy Scan: ITS A BOY!!!

The anatomy scan shows Baby J is growing normal, his measurement are just right. And as a bonus we found out our precious little one is a BOY!!! We were so shocked since we thought we're having a baby girl all this time. We must have miscalculated something that the Chinese Calendar gave us the wrong gender lol. But the most important part is our Boy is growing perfectly.

Here's our little one waving 

Everything went well, the scan came out normal. Our little one is truly a blessing.

"We love you baby"
