Surprises

[spirithorse21]

Yeah, don't have to stress anymore. *grin* We are going to have a baby! I'm 8 weeks along, we had our first ultrasound yesterday and everything looked great. Heartbeat was strong and clear and we got a great view of baby, tiny little appendages and all. My due date is September 9. We are pretty damn excited!

Wow! Congratulations - what a big amazing fantastic thing. I am so pleased for you. That will be one lucky kid.

PS Shoot for the 8th - that is my birthday, too.

Congrats :)

I like the idea of the 8th much better than the 11th. :)

So yeah, no eventing aspirations for me this year, but I have been thinking I might follow Windy's lead and teach the Big Red Horse to pull a cart.

Thank you! We're very excited!

[spirithorse21.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I'm so relieved that we conceived. I hope the rest won't be as stressful as getting to this point has been!

[spirithorse21.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

The one time I got to drive a horse, it was a Saddlebred. Not as good as riding (IMO), but laying the groundwork for eventual combined driving might be a blast...;)

[misslynn.livejournal.com]

well, there's parenthood :P But I hope you have a low-stress pregnancy, for sure :)

[spirithorse21.livejournal.com]

Definitely not as good as riding, but at least it's something for us to do. :)

[foalstory.livejournal.com]

oh wow, congrats! I think that's three horse people on the friends list who are recently pregnant. (time to go kid pony shopping? too soon? :) )

[spirithorse21.livejournal.com]

Actually, the Samwise will be a very appropriate kids pony, so that one can be filed under "Check"! :)

Congratulations! And good timing- September will put their birthday a good difference from Christmas.

Congrats! Perhaps I should go into hiding in case this condition is catching. :)

[spirithorse21.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

Thanks! We're really excited.

As always, your nicknames are wonderful. I love it "Couture Cowgirls in Foal" We need a sign, or a tshirt. :)

[spirithorse21.livejournal.com]

:D

It's all starting to sink in now, and I really am getting excited. It will be nice to talk about it.

[spirithorse21.livejournal.com]

yes. Although, it will be the beginning of a busy fall: Baby bday, wedding anniversary in oct., my bday in nov., then xmas. :)

[spirithorse21.livejournal.com]

Perhaps you need to revisit sex ed? ;-D lol!

[herecirm.livejournal.com]

Oh I missed this! Wow, congratulations! When are you buying him/her their first pony? :P

[spirithorse21.livejournal.com]

baby already has a pony. :) Samwise, my totally awesome Appaloosa, will fit the bill perfectly.

[elfinecstasy.livejournal.com]

First of all - congratulations!
I found your journal through wldhrsjen and was drawn to the beauty of the spirit I see in your journal.
Please feel free to check out my journal and add back if you wish - :-)

Thank you! We are very excited about this baby.

And thank you for the kind words on my journal. I hope you find my more mundane posts interesting as well. I write a lot about my horses and my work. Every once in a while I dust off my writing degree and wax poetic when the fancy strikes me. Welcome to my journal, I hope you enjoy it!

In the little "mundane" details of life, the seemingly ordinary, you can find much truth passion beauty and honest connection with someone else. If you would know me, share my pizza. ;-} I have never worked with horses but I know this much - they can be so hardworking, dustcovered and dripping with sweat - or they can be a wild, snow white mustang with mane blowing in the wind and mystical flute music from coming from somewhere in the trees behind them. Both images are Horse to me.

Welcome to my journal as well new friend - *welcome hug* I am so happy to get to know you.
