First Born



(I stole this - any excuse to talk about Chloe :) )
1. Were you married at the time? Yes
2. What were your reactions when you found out you were pregnant? It was pretty surreal. It didn't sink in for a while. I was ecstatic though.
3. How old were you? 21
4. How did you find out you were pregnant? Some generic cheap test...
5. Who did you tell first? Shane - I wanted to do it in some clever way, but he was the one who told me to take the test so I couldn't very well hide it after that!
6. Did you want to find out the sex? Of course! I had the chance to find out early, but Shane wasn't there so I waited.

11. Who irritated you the most? Uh..... no one out of the ordinary...
12. What was your first child's sex? Girl
13. How many pounds did you gain throughout your pregnancy? Something like 30 - I blew up (in my mind). But, it was all water weight :) Too bad I was chunky before I got pregnant!!
