Expect the unexpected...

In my mind I always imagined that I would come up with a cute way to tell TJ we were expecting. There are all sorts of ideas on the internet from writing something on your belly to giving them an unexpected gift- maybe I could give him a baby Bama gift? All fun ideas! Now I want to share with you what actually happened that day...It was the last day of the school year, May 21st. We had been going to the doctor and trying to get pregnant for only 3 months now. I really felt like there was no chance we would be pregnant that month, but I knew I should take a test anyway. We had just gotten our new puppy, Jetta. So I went to feed her and Sandy and laid the test down on the counter. I came back into the bathroom ready for what I expected to be a negative test that would be chunked in the trash can. I looked at it, then I brought it up inches from face, and I just stared at it. Was that a faint plus symbol I saw?! So here is the precious way my husband found out we are having our first child- I walked into the living room where he was getting ready for work, handed him the test and in a nervous panic I asked,"Does this look like a + sign to you?!" He replied that it did. I told him you do realize what that means- we are going to have a baby! We were both in such disbelief. So I did what any girl would do in this sitatuion- I called one of my BFFs- Elizabeth. By this point I was boohooing. She wanted to know what was wrong and I was trying to tell her it looked like a plus sign on there. She thought I said I found a black dot! (like a skin cancer or something) Once she finally figured out what I was saying she said go get another test to be sure and come on to work. So that's what I did, only--Winn Dixie was closed , so was Walgreen's (aren't they 24 hours?), and so were the first set of doors I try to enter Wal-mart with! Finally I got them, the ones that say the word. I went to work and took it, and sure as the world in a matter of a second- the word PREGNANT appeared! On June 25th we went to the doctor and it was confirmed. Here is the pciture of the fuzzball, our baby, that we saw that day!
