The I.P meeting

I meant to update my blog earlier but this weekend was so jam packed with our anniversary and Super Bowl (I think hunnie is still crying about the 49er loss)but this last Saturday the 2^nd we met with our I.P’s for the first time. I really was not too nervous. I just did not know what to expect! I didn’t know how much to share, how deep our conversation should go, should it be just surface stuff like hobbies and jobs or should we get down to the nitty-gritty and talk fetus’ and hormone shots?  But alas, the nerves set in as I was strapping on my heels and asking hunnie “does this outfit say ‘I can carry your baby?’” he laughed and assured me I looked great. As we pulled up to the restaurant and parked that’s when I started to panic. What was I panicking about you ask? I did not know if I should hug them or shake their hand! I mean, they are strangers so a hug might seem too much for a first meeting, on the other hand they are going to impregnate me so a hug seems very minimal compared to that! We got in the restaurant before they did and I nervously stared out the window trying to desperately remember what they look like from the picture they sent. After what seemed like hours (really just 5mins but in the land of nerves that’s a long time!) I saw them approaching. As soon as (T) walked in she immediately reached and gave me a big hug and that instantly calmed all my nerves. We sat and had breakfast, we talked about all the normal stuff, hobbies, jobs, family, even dabbled in the recent gun controversy. It flowed great. I am so thankful for hunnie because he was able to keep the conversation flowing mainly with the ins and outs of his job which (T) and (S) seemed to have a lot in common with. I would have loved to talk more but I’m a stay at home mom, my hobbies include playing Barbies and potty training, my job is dishes and prying small objects from babies mouth…non of which is interesting topics to talk about especially to a couple who do not have kids haha. After breakfast we went to coffee and the conversation switched to deeper things like diet and nutrition during pregnancy. They were very impressed and pleased with my belief in natural med-free birth and healthy organic eating while pregnant. (T) ended the day with tears in her eyes, telling me how amazing it is for them to think that they can one day soon have a child and a family of their own. She told me what an amazing person I am to do this for them and that I will always have a place of honor with their family.

Hunnie and I left with big smiles on our faces. This is what is meant to happen.  They are amazing beautiful people and I want so bad to give them this wonderful gift of a child of their own. They will make amazing parents and there is no doubt in my mind that this baby will be loved and provided for. I just hope they loved us as much as we loved them! Now it is time to get serious and diet and get healthy! The summer and holidays packed on the pounds haha now it is time to loose weight so I can get all fat and preggers soon!
