So as I was driving home from training I decided to stop and pick up an at home pregnancy test. I don't know exactly why, I just was thinking about it that day. Matt and I decided that we wanted to try to plan a birth in the springtime so that I wouldn't miss much of school. We heard from people that it takes time to get pregnant and it usually doesn't happen right away. Of course we decided to start a month early so that we would have a baby in April/May. Perfect right?
So back to the pregnancy test. I walk into the CVS by our hotel and go to the "family planning" area. I picked up every one of those tests and read about the accuracy and whatever before I grabbed the First Response (came with a bonus one, sweet!). I wanted to pull a Juno and just take it in the bathroom of CVS but I resisted. When I got to the hotel (ugh that sounds awful, I wish our house was done) I immediately went into the bathroom and got to business.
I flipped the thing upside down to resist peeking but after about 45 seconds I couldn't wait. To my surprise I saw TWO pink lines. Two means pregnant! I paced back and fourth in the room saying "Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh." over and over like a crazy person. Then I decided to chug some water and take another test. I took the dogs out as I gulped down another bottle of water and processed those two pink lines. When I came back in I went to the bathroom and tried another test. It was positive too! I got on the computer and checked that two pink lines meant pregnant, and compared them with other images.
Then I thought "How do I tell Matt?" I grabbed my keys and drove to Target. I purchased a set of cute grey onesies (neutral of course) and a gift bag. I had about 10 minutes before Matt came home but I still had to make this news fun. I put the tests and onesies in the back and waited... impatiently.
When he came in I handed him the bag and told him I had bought a gift. I think that he was confused and in shock when he pulled out the onesies and the tests.
We still both don't feel like it's real, but we are so excited!!!
