Changes are happening in The Choat's house

It's official, we have been to our first prenatal appointment and have an ultrasound scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. The due date as of right now is January 18, 2010.
There are so many feelings going on right now. It has seemed unreal that we are expecting a baby because I haven't been sick, and other then my growing ( once was) waistline, I have had no other symptoms of being pregnant.
Yesterday, on our way to the prenatal appointment, I started to cry as I was overwhelmed with emotions and how this will effect Chloe. I have heard that this feeling is very, very common and I find much relief in knowing I am not the only mom to worry about this. Chloe is my sidekick and she never leaves my side, which of course has it's pro's and con's. I think and know that with adding a little brother or sister, it will be adding to Chloe's life as opposed to taking away from her.
On the brighter side, we are so excited to have a new little baby to add to our family. Looking back at pictures of Chloe, it seems like just yesterday that she was born and we get to go through that all over again.

Mid-July to late July, we are moving into a duplex in Orono, MN. We couldn't be more thrilled and look forward to getting the heck outta the apartment. As much as I love Chanhassen, it is getting very busy and with having Chloe running around, we look forward to a more quiet, secluded area. Not to mention, going back to my home town. I went to Orono schools until I was in 7th grade, so I know the area very well.

The summer will be very busy, but it will be so exciting!!!!
