A whole new year, a whole new person

So far this New Year's Day has been less life-changingly dramatic than last year's. Last year on the morning of January 1st, I woke up and found out I was pregnant.

Nothing like taking a home pregnancy test to start the year out with a bang! (Well, really that came 12 days earlier, heh heh.) We had hoped and suspected that I was pregnant, but seeing verification was still mindblowing. So one year ago today I was very excited -- but also very nervous, since at a mere 12 days gestation I figured I had at least a 25% chance of miscarrying. Out of fear of loss, I tried to keep my enthusiasm in check. (Story of my life...)

It's a little strange to think now that the little ball of cells pumping out all those hormones was Isaac! We just didn't know him yet.

(Well, it was going to become Isaac -- at the size of an apple seed there wasn't much to know about him yet.)
