On August 14th 2008, I got up out of bed and decided to take a pregnancy test. A week or two prior to that date we were on the Oregon Coast, and I wasn't feeling very well. So, I kinda had a hunch that I might be pregnant, but I didn't want to get my hopes up. So when I noticed that the icky feeling continued, I decided it was time to take the test. I got up from bed and headed off to Walmart. Garrett was already at work, and so were his parents. I got the pregnancy test and headed for home. I immediately went for the bathroom and took the test. As I waited I put my hands in my face, I could feel my heart racing, I didn't want to look. I had been disappointed a lot, so I was afraid of that. I finally worked up the courage to look at my pregnancy test. And sure enough it said "YES," I was so thrilled I just started to sob, I couldn't believe I was pregnant! So many emotions went through my head. I had to talk to somebody. But I decided to wait to tell Garrett and surprise him with the news. So instead I called my sister Heidi. When she answered the phone I was just sobbing, she thought something had happened to me. I could barely speak, but I finally spilled out the words, "I'm pregnant!" She was so excited. Garrett came home later that day and I surprised him with a little onesie that said, "You're going to be a daddy." (and don't worry I have this on video!) He was so thrilled!
This picture was taken when I was only 5 weeks and 6 days along! We couldn't believe that they could even find the baby! The baby was only about 1/4 inch long. When we were watching the baby there was a little flicker, and the nurse told us that it was the babies heart beat. CRAZY!! So the baby already has a nickname, it is "Peanut." Right now I am currently 15 weeks and 3 days along, so the baby is about 4 3/4 inches long. I am not feeling as sick as I used too. I am actually feeling a lot better! The baby is being nice to me. We have not found out yet if it is a boy or a girl. But the way things are going the baby is acting a little diva-ish, so we will see. We find out on November 11th. So that is going to be a very exciting day.
