Intro

My husband Chandler and I have been married for almost 6 months. We've been talking for a while about when we should have a baby. Our plan was to start trying this July. Nothing special about the month. It's an arbitrary choice based on a dream I had that we got pregnant in July. But since we have a time planned, we ended up talking about it a lot and getting anxious to start our family. So, one day last month we were like, "Let's just do it. Why wait?" So we did. He was hoping to "one shot it" and get pregnant right away but I knew the timing was off. It was like a week before my period. But he was excited about the idea, so we went out looking at baby stuff at Babies 'r Us. We're not naive enough to buy anything yet, but we did pick out some security blankets we want to eventually get. Owls and turtles are our big things and they had one of each. We took pictures to remind us what stuff we want to get when the time is right.
