"Knocked Up"

I'll start off my super special pregnancy blog adventures by saying that I feel the above phrase to be offensive in my situation.  I am in no way so inappropriately termed "knocked up."  I like to think of myself as "expecting" or "with child"- something tender like that :)  However, bringing my own personal style to each entry is important to me.  Since the hubby, Kendall, and I are huge movie buffs, I have decided to title each blogging experience by using a movie title.  It just makes me happy.  And you have to admit that "Knocked Up" is a great and hilarious movie.
