"Everyone told us the dogs would be more clingy and protective over me, but they already never leave my side! I can't even go to the bathroom without them pawing at the door, and all four of them are sitting there waiting for me when I walk out," the hairdresser added. "It'll be fun to see how they react to the baby."

Getting Pregnant Was Not Easy

Recalling specifics about their attempts to have a child, Summer disclosed that she and her husband sought the help of a few physicians to improve their chances but still had no luck for two years after getting married.

"It was definitely an interesting two years of ups and downs — the constant letdown month after month can really be hard on a couple," she told People.

When the medical visits did not improve the situation, the couple decided to put their anxieties aside and attempt just to enjoy their marriage. As fate would have it, they became pregnant.

She added: "We decided to take a break, leave it in God's hands and just enjoy each other and this crazy, fun life we live together … and then surprise, we're pregnant!"

The hairstylist went on to explain what she felt might have caused them to shoot blanks for years, revealing that the "stress" and anxiety of eagerly wanting a child might have been the cause.

Summer said, "I think stress has a huge part in it. You hear so many stories like ours of 'the moment you stop trying, it'll happen,' but when you're in that situation it's really, really hard to not try or not think about it. It's just one of those crazy things in life that doesn't make sense, and there's no right or wrong answer."

However, now that their struggles are over, Summer shared that they are enjoying the new changes in their life.

She added. "It's been so fun to go through all of these new changes together as a first-time experience for the both of us. We are beyond excited and cannot wait to meet our little Pardi babe!"
