We're Pregnant!!!!

On Friday, October 18th, we found out that we're expecting a baby! What better time to start a blogspot than now, right?! What a wonderful way for everyone to see our journey through these nine months.
I took an at home test that afternoon after work, and could not believe that it said positive!! I yelled for Matthew, saying "Come in here, you've got to see this!!" (he was taking a nap) Later he told me he was thinking "what is in this house that I've "gotta see." We just looked at each other and grinned from ear to ear. We had been trying for this little miracle since August...didn't take too long!! :) After a few minutes of holding each other and laughing and maybe a few tears from me, we went to spread the news. Of course we couldn't keep it in!! Here are a few pics that we took that evening.


Matthew, Uncle Tony (thank goodness I washed that stick off!! haha) Aunt Melissa and me
Aunt Melissa was so excited!
My mother-in-law, Delaine jumped up and down when we told her the news!
We put the stick in a box of old things that belonged to my grandmother. We told her we had discovered the box and wanted her to see what was inside. She was a little confused, since we had woke her up from her nap, but once she figured out that we were pregnant, she cried! Nana Pam is so excited, as is Aunt Allie, Mia, Konner, and Crawdaddy!

I went to my family doctor on Wednesday, and got a confirmation. I'm 5 weeks preggo, with an estimated due date of June 26th. 2 days before my birthday!! We wanted to spread the news because #1, we are so stinkin' excited that we couldn't keep it in, and #2, we wanted all who know and love us to pray for us and our 'lil bun in the oven!! We are on Cloud 9!!
