Finding Out

I am trying to catch up on our last year mainly because I feel I have forgotten so much of what has happened in mine and Grant's marriage and it makes me really sad. This is a memory that Grant and I do not want to forget so I better write it down before it is gone forever.

In July, Grant and I decided we were ready, well as ready as you can be, to start our family. I had told myself many times that the process probably would take awhile and so I didn't get my hopes up or turn into a crazy, constantly taking tests kind of gal. We had taken all of the steps to really prepare ourselves for this journey and were feeling pretty great about our decision.

On Wednesday September 25th I was at home and to be completely honest, wasn't feeling any different than my usual self. I had no signs or symptoms of pregnancy. I have never been "regular" so I couldn't even base anything off of that..but I had a feeling that I should take a test. I happened to have a dollar store test and figured that it was suffice ha and sure enough it came back positive. My heart literally stopped for a brief moment, I can say that I was NOT expecting that at all. I got the biggest grin on my face and couldn't wait to share the news with the mr. The only downfall was that I found out at 9 in the morning and didn't really want to tell Grant on the phone while he was at work so I had to wait all day.

Finally 5 came around and I got to share the news and he was completely surprised, excited, shocked and a little bit nervous :) It is a big deal and to know there is no turning back adds a bit nervousness to the mix of emotions.

Grant and I are more than stoked to have this little boy join our family. We know life is about to change in a HUGE way but are so ready to go on this adventure together.
