Sharing my secret...

So I tried to keep my pregnancy a secret for as long as I could. I wanted to surprise my family when they came out for my GRADUATION the beginning of April. Keeping it a secret from people around here was quite hard because I started showing at 10 weeks. Right away people were asking me when I was due and if I knew what I was having. How embarrassing. I tried to make sure that everyone knew it was a secret, so I could still surprise my family. Well, it worked out! My mom got out of the car and ran towards Ezra for a hug. She didn't say anything when she saw me. I was really nervous that she'd be upset or maybe she just wouldn't notice. Well, as soon as her attention turned to me she pointed to my belly and turned to my dad and just said, "I knew it! I just knew it!" My dad said I just looked like I had eaten too many watermelon seeds. It was a great surprise. My mom has been asking me if I was pregnant literally since the day we found out we were, so I have been lying all this time. It was fun keeping it a secret though. She was really surprised when she found out that at that time I was 22 weeks and already knew what I was having. I promised that with our next baby I will tell her right away. Although, I'm pretty sure I promised her that after we had Ezra too :) SURPRISE!

For graduation my parents bought me a trip to visit my sister in Arizona. She just had her second baby and I couldn't wait to meet him! Of course we all decided to make it a surprise. We had Ezra and I hide in another room when they got to the house we were staying at. I decided to just let Ezra out and see what she would say. All I heard was, "Is Kayleen here?" I came running out and she gave me a hug, not noticing my belly. She poked me in the stomach and called me a terd or something of that nature. I just said, "careful Jenn, there's a baby in there." DOUBLE SURPRISE! It was so fun being out there and getting to play with my nephews! I miss them already. My nephew Chase taught Ezra a thing or two about how to speak gibberish. Chase can carry on full conversations in his own language and every time I tried to respond back in gibberish he would start by saying, "NO" and then continue with his thoughts. SO FUNNY!

Sadly, I did not take many pictures from my graduation or my trip to Arizona, but I hope to get some from my mom soon. She's actually coming back to visit us today! Ezra has been asking where Nana is since we left Arizona so it'll be fun to have her back. I'll also probably blog more about being pregnant and Ezra's latest as soon as I can find the energy and time.
