Those tests don't lie...

So I'm pregnant!!


 Fill the blank: When I discovered I was pregnant, the first thing I did was _______.



For those of you that know me...I'm always afraid of being pregnant...I usually have a lot of stress going on and my monthly visitor is a little late so I pee on a stick and get on with my day. I should own stock in EPT...seriously. But on this fateful day it was positive! We're going to be parents which is super amazing and super frightening all at the same time.

I think I sat in the bathroom for about 20 minutes before I could get a handle on things--I immediately called J and he seemed confused. I chickened out and waited for him to come home.

As soon as he walked in the door I pulled him into the bathroom to show him the results. He looked at me and said "well that's a test you can't fake" (for those of you that don't know you can buy positive result sticks on craigslist--who knew? I may have a new hobby) He smiled, took a deep breath and hugged me. I could feel him shaking.

We had no idea what to do...was it really positive? How far along were we? So we did the only thing we could--take more tests. We went to the local Target and picked up a few and tried them out.

They were all positive too.

So here we are 4 weeks out from the wedding and we're also about 8 months out from being parents---life is a whirlwind.

I'm back...while it's interesting

This is probably my fourth attempt at blogging...I've written about bars and their drinkability, my experiences with boys (or lack there of)--and my search for a good one (p.s. I found one), life in my old office and me being a super emo college undergrad (you should be glad you missed that period...it had lots of lame poetry...while I can't promise I won't write poetry anymore, I can promise not to just rhyme (*clears throat* Justin Bieber)...blue and glue don't make a hit rhyme...
