And finally it happened

Dear Blog Reader,

I honestly don’t know how to break the news or when or how – to make it as creative and interesting as I can but anyway I thought I’d announce…

I am pregnant.

Can you believe I just shared my most exciting, most interesting news in the most boring way possible?

Wish me luck,

Prego Blogger Grace

Hey, Congrats!
I really don’t know how I missed this post. When I read the Pregnant ladies, lucky? post also I didn’t ‘suspect ‘ anything ;D

Only after reading the giveaway post, I had to come back to find out what I’ve missed 😦

Anyway, I am truly happy for you. Please Take Care.
