Better than fishing...

Waaay back in October of 2009, Jeff and I found out we were going from a care-free, spontaneous still honeymooning couple to a family of 3.

I had been told that when you are pregnant you just know it, and man was that true. Even though we'd been trying for a while and I'd taken dozens of negative tests, a few days before I took this test I felt pregnant. Not with the typical signs and symptoms of nausea or fatigue but in my mind I just knew this was the time. I woke up bright and early one Monday morning to take the test. I did my thing on the stick and began to get ready for the day. When I glanced at the test it was still "thinking" so I automatically thought it was again negative. How could that be? I was so sure. As I went to throw the test out, there it was, the coveted plus sign! Hallelujah!
How was I going to tell Jeff? Should I wait for the MD to confirm? No, that was just mean to make him wait. Should I buy a cute little gift or send him flowers or balloons at work? No, that was just mean to make me wait! I couldn't stand it, I burst into our bedroom, woke him up and blurted out, "We're having a baby!" He told me he'd been dreaming about perch fishing, but this was much better than that!
