What? A Baby!

Today our secret was told...by a six year old.
It's true, Kyle and I are expecting our first child. We are in about the middle of my 11th week. We have been keeping it pretty quiet, just telling family and close friends. Plus I thought I needed to tell my boss because I am always sick. Other than that no one really knows. I am not showing yet, (I feel fatter, but apparently I don't look that way yet) so today when one of my former students came up and hugged me, looked at me, then touched my stomach, and really loud says "Mrs. Pettit, you have a baby in there!" everyone was shocked standing around. His teacher started to correct him and tell him that was an unkind thing to say, I told him that it was okay that he was right, I am actaully pregnant. I figured there was no sense in him getting in trouble for something that he was right about. I suppose I could have played it off, but I figure that it is okay to start telling people now, plus I really just love this kid and didn't want him to get in trouble (he is always in trouble, so I didn't want to add to him problems).
We are very excited, and I am so looking forward to second trimester when everyone says you start feeling better! I included our two pictures of Baby Pettit.

What a cute story . . .Dad and I just laughed last night when we read it. I'm guessing who it was sometime you will have to tell me if I am right or not. Did you ever figure out how he knew? Love ya all
