And so it begins

After what feels like years of waiting, I am finally allowed to tell you something.

That ‘not-so-secret’ secret from the other day? Yeah whoops, I just realized I probably shouldn’t have called it that.

Because this is my real secret…

I thought long and hard about how to break this to you and while my friend Patti’s idea of a photo shoot featuring a shopping cart full of pickles and buckets of ice cream would be my DREAM, she’s not here to get all ridiculous in the grocery store with me. Boo. So pee sticks it is.

I’m 14w3d* –holy crow, already in my second trimester! how did that happen??!– and feeling fantastic.

So what took me so long to tell you? Oh, please don’t be mad. We wanted to share our news with family and friends in person wherever possible so that took awhile. And we didn’t even do that until quite recently because, well, I was just scared. More on that another day.

Don’t get me wrong – part of me (oh okay, most of me) was dying to tell the whole world, especially during the last couple of weeks. I feel like my head is about to explode with baby stuff and for some reason all I want to do is share it with you. But I do have to admit that having that little secret between just me and Mr Fink and our immediate families was kind of fun. It’s not often you get to keep a happy one to yourself.

That said, something tells me I’m going to enjoy sharing this journey with you even more. Hope you’ll come along for the ride.

* That’s 14 weeks and 3 days. And if you didn’t know that, don’t worry because neither did I before that morning pee that changed my life. ;)

    Aha! I know I’m late to the party here, but I suspected when you mentioned something about an iPhone app for pregnancy on Mrs. Shortcake’s blog… hehe.

    Many congratulations! I hope you continue to feel great!

    Congratulations! And the shopping cart full of pickles and buckets of ice cream would have been hilarious.
