This has been a pretty crazy week!
Thursday, I got the news that one of my BFFs is expecting! I saw her FI announce it on FB, and since we had had a conversation before about never announcing BFP on FB until 12 weeks, I assumed either she didn't tell me for 3 months or her FI blabbed early.
I texted her to congratulate her and she came back and told me thanks, and that she just found out 2 days earlier, when her FI was out of town. She wasn't a few weeks along.....she was 6 months along!!
Needless to say, it was a huge shock to me and Troy, so I can only imagine how she felt and is feeling! I had seen her about a week and a half before, and she didn't not look pregnant at all, nevermind 6 months!
Yesterday was a fantastic day. Troy had his first job interview in the morning (for those who do not know already, we went through a long immigration process in which Troy couldn't work. I have been the only one working since we got back from the UK in November 2008. He was granted Permanent Residency in January and got his card (which made him able to work) in March). He was offered a job and starts Monday morning at 6:45am!
We were really happy about the job and walked into our apartment on a high. We noticed we had 3 voice mails on our home phone. The first was from Troy's older brother who lives with his wife and daughter in Northern England. They have been together for over 10 years and got married in December, and their daughter will be 10 in a few months. He told Troy to give him a call back when he gets in. The next message was his brother again, telling him that he's been trying to get a hold of him and to not blame him if he doesn't hear it from him....his wife is pregnant!
I am pretty excited since I will be always known to this baby as "Aunt Katie", where their other daughter refers to us as "Uncle Troy and Katie".
So, we've had a lot of excitement here in the past few days...I'm hoping some of that baby craze will rub off on me and help us out on this cycle!
