Not so prepared but I couldn't be happier

I'm about 8 weeks pregnant at 36 years old. I really feel like this is truly meant to be and I'm feeling totally optimistic.

Igor is the daddy and here's the quick version of our story: He was my first love and I was his. We got together when I was 15 and he was 17 and we stayed together for 7-ish years. We drifted apart after I went off to college and lots of blah blah blah happened in our individual lives. 13 years later we reconnected via Facebook! We met for lunch, sparks flew beyond what I even remembered (and I always remembered serious chemistry). We are so alike it's crazy. We theorize that we shaped each other in very permanent ways during our formative years. We've been inseparable since that lunch date and I love him more every day...and 8 months later we find ourselves pregnant!

There are lots of unknowns in our lives right now but having a baby with the love of my life is the best and most exciting thing that's ever happened to me. I wouldn't take it back for anything!
