We are pregnant! Things have been really crazy over the last 8 weeks. We were supposed to go on a cruise for Russell's work, but the night before we were supposed to leave, I started having a lot of pain in my stomach. We had just found out that we were pregnant a few days before. The pain got to the point that I was in tears, and I was really scared. We went to the emergency room. They did a bunch of tests, and thought that my pregnancy might be eptopic, so they told us not to go on the cruise. The next two weeks brought lots of doctors appointments and ultrasounds. We were so excited to finally find out that everything was okay. They figured that all of the pain was from a ruptured cyst, but it wouldn't harm the baby at all. About three weeks ago, we got to see the baby's heartbeat! It was so exciting.
I'm now 12 weeks along. Yesterday I couldn't do up the button on my pants for the first time. I don't look pregnant yet, but my belly just looks like I've been having some really big lunches. I'm really excited for it to turn into the 'bump'.
Of course, Russell has already equipped our baby to be a LSU fan. The day after we found out that we were pregnant, he bought the entire crib bedding set, along with the LSU mobile. We had to make a compromise -- if it's a girl, the bedding will have to wait in the closet until a boy comes along. But either way, we will keep the mobile out. It's really fun to see him so excited about everything.

We are so excited for you! I kind of hope it's a girl b/c what color would you paint the walls to match purple and gold? :) Love, Clay, Jennie and Jack
Chels- I didn't know y'all had a blog!! How exciting! It was good to see you and Russ the other night, I just wish we had more time to hang out just us and catch up. Oh well! Can't wait to hear what you are having, you will have to post as soon as you know! Love, L
