We're Pregnant!

Yesterday, January 6th 2012, was the best, most crazy day of my life. It had been a normal day. We went grocery shopping, went to lunch and went to Tysons basketball game. Garrett wanted to stay for the varsity game but I didn't because I was really tired. He dropped me off at home and went back to the game. When I got home I had realized that I was a couple days late for my period and my boobs hurt like crazy. (sorry if that is TMI.) I had a couple dollar store pregnancy tests in the closet so I decided to take one. To my surpise, two lines! It was POSITIVE! I'm sure the look on my face was priceless. I thought it was wrong at first so I went and bought more tests, all different brands. I took four more that night and they were all positive! I was pacing around the house like crazy and I even started crying! While I was at the store I bought a blue gift bag, pink tissue paper and some baby ruths. I put the baby ruths in the bag along with one of the pregnancy tests! I then waited anxiously for Garrett to come home so I could tell him. When he came home he brought me flowers!!! I told him that was funny because I had something for him too. When he opened the bag and saw the test he said "Are you sure?" I told him that i had taken three more. He was so excited and he even started crying, which is not like Garrett! After a minute he said "I think I need to sit down." He looked like he was going to puke! We were both kind of speechless for about an hour or so. Then we decided we wanted to tell his family because his sister Vanessa wasleaving the next morning to go back to school and we knew we wouldn't see her for a few months. We went to Walmart and bought a pink and blue onesie and put it in the blue bag with pink tissue paper and baby ruths. When we went to give it to them Vanessa knew right away by the color of the bag. They were VERY EXCITED! They have a not so funny idea that it should be twins! ha. Carla and Vanessa think we are going to have a girl. Garrett has already said he wants a boy. At this point I really don't care what we have just as long as we have a healthy baby! This morning I took two more test, both positive. We are planning on telling my parents tomorrow. They are going to be ecstatic! We probably won't tell anyone else until i'm about eight weeks. From the pregnancy tracker I will be five weeks tomorrow so it won't be long! Also my estimated due date is September 10, 2012! What a perfect time to have a baby! We are so excited and, of course, a little nervous! WE ARE HAVIN' A BABY!
