Pregnancy!!!



So before we got married Tanner and I decided we were going to wait at least a year to try having kids. we just wanted to be us. well so much for that one I'll tell you what! haha about 2 months later i just felt that need of "i need to be a mommy" but Tanner and I talked and decided we'd still wait, but more and more I was just being hit with that impression we needed to start our family. I'd be sitting at church and see little babies and just get so upset. :( Finally Tanner gave me a blessing since i was struggling so much, and that did it for him we then decided we'd start our family. however it ended up taking us 5 months to get pregnant, and month after month i just found it harder and harder for me. But i was blessed!!! when i took a test at six in the morning when i read the yes i just couldn't believe it!!! I just started yelling Tanners name and woke him up from a nice sleep and showed him i even cut my leg on something running to him haha. but i was just oh so excited!!!
But what drove me crazy is the doctor won't see you until your about 8 weeks. so April 6th Tanner and i both went to the appt. and they said "this will be the longest appt. because of all the tests" we were done in 30 min. but we saw the baby in the ultra sound and oh my goodness seeing the little thing was just so amazing and the heart beat and hearing it i was almost in tears!!!
In the Ultra sound picture it just looks like a peanut, but it didn't while watching it. i can't wait to see it grow!!! but i for sure have morning sickness! I throw up almost every morning and every night. my back is always killing me. but it'll be worth it in the end. even though i did tell tanner the next one he gets to carry. :D haha but what i find amazing and really fun is my sister NIkki is pregnant also :D I'm only about a week ahead of her. i'm due Nov. 12th on my sister Samantha's birthday and Nikki is due the Nov. 18th. even though i really doubt we'll give birth those days :D i am just so excited for this blessing even if i do feel sick all the time, and want to sleep all the time. i feel bad when i get sick on Sundays since it basically just kills me Tanner ends up going to church himself. but lucky the Miamaid is amazing and is always willing to teach my girls when I'm not capable of teaching. But hopefully now that I'm almost to the 10th week it'll calm down at 12 weeks. I'm only hoping. Tanner and i are SO excited for little Lucy Anne Barker or Isaac Tanner Barker. Even though we both really feel it to be a girl but I'll find out when i can no chance I'm waiting until this baby is born!
