Out at Work

Last night I flew back home from being on a quick work trip to Jackson, Mississippi and decided that I'd try out the Fetal Home Doppler that an amazing friend let me borrow! I was a little worried that I wouldn't find the heartbeat (only because it can be difficult) and then freak myself out for nothing. Chad and I went for it knowing that we may not find it and that we didn't need to worry, and sure enough about 3 minutes in we found the heartbeat! It was so fun to just lay in our own bed and listen to that awesome sound. Thanks, Noelle!!!

Well about two days ago my "bump" popped out a little. I still don't really look pregnant, just more like I ate one cheeseburger too many. Anyway, it's definitely obvious and I can't suck it in or hide it very well anymore so I finally came out to the rest of my guys here at work (aside from my boss). This is how I told them.. in an email... I know.. SO classy

and yes, I made that ecard! Perfect, huh?

Subject: Leaving... 

"Well I guess it needs to be said. I have tried to hold off as long as I could but the time has come. 

I will be leaving you guys in November. That's the "news" Charlie was going to spill on the call last Friday but I stopped him. I wasn't ready for you all to know.

Don't get too excited just yet… it will only be temporary. I know we have a company policy that says we can't take time off in November or December, but what can I say, I'm a rule breaker!
