First comes love then comes marriage then comes the baby in the baby carriage!!

If you haven’t heard we’re having a baby!! I’m due February 17th so I’m right around 12 weeks. Here’s our story: So we thought we were pregnant so we took a few tests but they were both negative. I was little bummed out but life kept going. Then about a week later I was talking to a friend and she asked me if I had any news and I told her no but I’d kind of been hanging on to the idea that I might still be pregnant. Well, as a friend put it today she reminded me that I might be pregnant so on the way home I stopped at the dollar store and got 4 tests. I came home and said hey look what I got and Ter kinda just looked at me with a what are those for look :) I went and took one and holy smokes I was surprised to see two lines!! I called Terry back into the bathroom and we took another one to make sure but the dollar store ones just weren’t cuttin it for us so we went to Wal-Mart and got a “better” one. Well that one was pretty faint so we still weren’t convinced. I had a meeting to go to but said I would get another one afterwards. I went to Broulims and there you have to have a manager open a case for you, crazy I know!, well I went to get the manager and it was our Home Teacher! I was freaking out! I hurried and snuck out and went to yet another store! Walgreens worked and I went home for a fourth try. So four POSITIVE tests later I think we were pretty convinced and shocked. We couldn’t be happier!
About three days after we found out I got SUPER sick and pretty much thought I was done for and that we were definitely only going to have one kid if this is what morning sickness was. After a 4 am trip to the ER we found out it was the flu and two bags of IV and Zofran did the trick. Thank heavens things have calmed down since then! I still get pretty sick on some days and my nose could compete with any pooch!
We found a super good deal on a crib and are loving buying baby stuff. I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to be a parent and especially to share it with my wonderful husband. We can’t wait!! Our little bugaboo at about 8 weeksPuttin the the STEAL of a DEAL crib together and the finished product. Ya I know were only about 6 or 7 months early but we just couldn't wait :)
