We're having a baby! We found out for sure in mid-to-late November (we waited a week after our first positive pregnancy test to take another one) when I was six weeks pregnant. We're super happy and excited, and can't wait for July to arrive!
Since finding out about our addition, we've done a lot of thinking and talking about our baby and how we wanted to share this new life journey and family transformation with our family and friends. We don't want to bombard e-mail inboxes with tons of information, and we don't really want to put everything on Facebook either (especially since some of our family and friends don't use it). Eventually we decided that the best way would be a blog, where we'll post baby and family updates for anyone who is interested to read. We thought about using my blog for this purpose, and for awhile we contemplated making a new blog, but neither idea seemed quite right. We both wanted to be able to write on the blog, so just using my blog wouldn't work for that, and we thought that having two joint blogs - our travel blog plus a new family blog - would be too confusing and tedious. So we finally decided to just use our travel blog and write both travel posts and family life posts on here. (Besides, any future travel we do will most likely include our family anyway.) Plus, this blog is called JAG Journeys, and this is surely an exciting journey that we've just embarked on!
If you're here, welcome! Feel free to look around, read the posts we have up so far, and, if you haven't already, make sure to save the URL somewhere so you can come back and check in every so often for updates.
This is going to be one fun new adventure!
