Here we go...

Hi Readers, So excited to post my very first blog! I figure we will have a lot happening over the next year and I want to be able to remember every bit of it and share our excitement with family and friends, or at least some of it. I know I can post on Facebook but I'm getting more and more creeped out by FB, I mean do I really want to post all of baby J's first pictures for people that I kind of knew in High School to see and talk about how magical and wonderful or tiring and stressful this new world can be?? No...not really. Not that I think poorly of people who do bc I'm looking and reading and sometimes I'm thoroughly entertained, unless you are posting pictures of what you have for dinner....boring.

I actually meant to do this when I found out I was pregnant but turns out it has been kind of a whirlwind and I now find myself 6 weeks from delivery at 34 weeks pregnant, better late than never! Here's a quick summary: Found out we were pregnant, so completely excited and overjoyed, I took a test in the morning right after Donald left for work and it was positive, I took 2 more just to be sure even though I already knew it. I waited aaaallll day for Donald to get home and I told him right away, we both cried tears of happiness. All was right in our world. About two months later tragedy struck our family when the Lord took Johnny (Donald's dad) away from us. It was such a difficult time and even now it doesn't seem real. We miss him everyday and always will. When we found out it was a boy we decided to name him Jonathan to carry out his legacy even though there will never be another Johnny White.

Without sounding like a complainer I am not one of those women who love being pregnant, I was sick for a good 20 weeks which halted all workouts and I'm not loving the wonderful changes my body is going though while being hijacked by what feels like an alien (I know it's not, it's my wonderful angel) but man it's tough! I wish I had been nicer now to every pregnant woman I have seen. We are so close to this baby being in my arms though so non- complaining session is over!

Ok- now for my first picture posts I'll add some pictures throughout my pregnancy even though most get deleted while still in the memory card due to me thinking I look too much like a whale!

That's all for today!

Happy because we know we are pregnant even though I'm pretty sure I got sick multiple times at this Ranger Game!


Travelled to the University of Cincinnati to see Danny host Relay for Life and I also got to share the good news with them! I made Nancy keep her mouth shut until after Relay was over so I didn't take any of the spotlight off of Danny and his event, this picture shows Nancy almost spilling the beans for the 20th time...What a fun weekend though. I love you aunt Nancy, Uncle Rob & Danny even though Nancy is special.....


Last picture I took of Johnny, at dinner with both families at Bolsa in Oak Cliff, TX


More from that night because it was so fun, even though you would not be able to tell from Donald's non smile ;)


Mom's Retirement party, about 12 weeks pregnant, baby bump or bbq food baby...you decide.

  1. YAY for Suzald! I will definitely read your blog. I can't wait to see pics of baby Jonathan on here. And I agree, I don't want to see pictures of food on facebook. Why do people do that?
