March 2nd was the day that changed us forever. It was the day we found out that 2 became 3! Sure, we were actively trying to start a family, but never imagined we would be so blessed as to conceive on the first try. 1 digital test that clearly read, "PREGNANT," did not convince us at all. 2 tests later we called the dr. for an appointment and waited impatiently for ultimate confirmation. We decided to hold off on telling our parents until pee-sticks were actually proven correct and after we digested and enjoyed the news privately. So we decided to celebrate by camping at El Capitan Canyon for the weekend. We spent days breathing fresh air on hikes and bikes and nights by the fire talking about the journey we were about to embark on. Corey had his scotch, I made virgin bloody mary's. It was there that our baby had its first s'more! It was there that I also learned that my bladder was newly overactive... A couple weeks later we shared the news with our immediate family, who were overjoyed, and we all agreed to revel in it quietly for the following 3 months. It was a magical and exciting time for us, albeit the overwhelming exhaustion that comes with the first trimester. Every week of progress was another week of a miracle. We were in awe....a little campodonico, made from so much love. Is there anything more beautiful?!
A Little Campodonico!!
