The most important people know :)

Welcome to the blog dedicated to our little baby!! I can still hardly believe it as I'm writing these words - How exciting! From everything that I've figured out, our due date is July 1st... so that gives us about 7 1/2 months until we meet the newest member of the family!

This weekend was so much fun because we were finally able to tell my family, and the weekend before we told all of Ian's immediate family - so all of our parents and brothers and sisters know! What a joy that we could share such great news with our families! Although keeping the secret from my family was a bummer, I'm happy I had the chance to tell them in person! Anyhow, families, I'm glad you all know!! I'm so excited for us all to meet the new Bally (who's also a little Van Geem at heart!)

There are two baby 'widgets' (weird word) on this website - one which shows a good picture of the little bean, and then one above, which gives a little description. It will be fun to see what our little guy/girl is up to!

Please pray, pray, pray that we have a healthy baby! The official safe date for us is a few days before Christmas - the end of the first trimester- so we will really be joyful on that day!!!

My first doctor's appointment is on Friday - so I will fill everyone in on that! Besides that - feeling nauseous and tired, drinking LOTS of fizzy water, and craving fruit!! Which I suppose isn't that bad :)

No pictures yet - but this will be the place where they will be! (The only pictures I have so far are of the pregnancy test - and I doubt you guys want to see that!)

Our families are the best! I'm thankful we have you guys!!!

Congrats, Laura and Ian!!! The Garman South household is tickled pink (or blue, as the case may be....) for you all. And guess what? Mary is pregnant too! She's due June 5. We'll be following your blog with great interest. Take care, get plenty of sleep (you'll need it!), and stay safe!
Love, Aunt Sue
