15 Things I can't wait to do!

We have been TTC for 10 months now, not sure if that falls under long-term or now, seems pretty dang long to me. But I thought I would plant a thought in the heads of all of you TTC ladies, sprinkled with sticky baby dust.

Instead of posting my 4ww symptoms I have decided to post something more positive, and something that thinking about brings me a feeling of tender, dreamy, happiness. Hopefully it will inspire you to look do all of the positives ahead...and help you to just take pleasure in the dreams in your heart.

15 Things I can't wait to do:

1. Call a doctor for my first appointment.
2. My first scan/ultrasound.
3. Tell my husband that WE are pregnant.
4. Tell my 8 year old that he is going to be a big brother, finally!
5. Tell my best friend that she is going to have another God Baby.
6. Go for my gender scan.
7. Surprise my parents with a witty card featuring the gender scan.
8. Tour a birthing center.
9. Create a birthing plan.
10. Go baby shopping!!!!
11. Plan for a VBAC.
12. Take Pregnant yoga!
13. Feel a kick
14. Feel hiccups
15. Fall in love with my number 2.

Feel free to post your 15 or more or less. Would love to read them.

Sending out baby dust, the stickiest kind, and tons of good baby vibes to you all.

I am so with you on the "cant waits"! Here is my (and my hubby's) list.
1) Show my hubby that first positive test.
2) Tell my boss I need time off for a doctors apt. (work people have been so supportive)
3) Hear the heart beat.
4) Have a reason to wear the pregnancy clothes I got right before my MC last year.
5) Keep it a secret from my Mother. I'm horrible at secrets, but it would be fun to see how long I can hold out before the drama begins.
6) Tell my autistic brother he's going to be an uncle. Boy won't that be fun!
7) Wake the hubby up with absolutely ridiculous midnight cravings.
8) Make a baby registry with hubby.
9) Feel the movement.
10) See our dogs reactions when they discover the movement. Fletcher was obsessed with my SIL when she was pregnant.
11) Start shopping for baby stuff. Yard sales!
12) Nap without guilt.
13) Find out what the gender.
14) Start birth announcements.
15) Take a birthing center tour at our local hospital. They even have an expectant mothers club.
