It's Official!! 9-29-2009

Were expecting a baby! Yup! I tested on Wednesday, September 29th and got a positive test. Tested again on October 1st and got another. Waaaahoooo, were stoked!

September 29th, I woke up as usual and got ready for work. I was going to the bathroom more than usual. I was coming home from work extremely tired, so that day after work, I bought a test. It showed a bright line and a faint line, so I called my sister in law (since I didn't read instructions) to see if this meant I was really truely pregnant! She said that I was, and it just confirmed my suspicions! So I called up the doctor and set up my first appointment. Joe was on his way home right when I got the results, and I had dinner ready for him when he got home. I put the test on a board under the table so I could grab it and give it to him when he least expected it. It was his first day at his new job as a detective in crimes against children. We sat down at the table, and I told him that I loved him and he said, "thanks" lol. I had kind of interruped his thought process, and I asked him, "well do you love me too?" And he said, "of course!" All I could say was "I hope so," as I slid the test across the table to him. He immediatley smiled and kissed me, and said, "that was fast." But he was super excited.

I love seeing Joe excited about this, it makes me so happy! We had only tried for about 3 months, so I was relieved how easy it was. Anyways, I had my appointment this Wed the 7th. Doctor said everything looked great, I'm still early, just five weeks today. So she confirmed the pregnancy and gave me a due date of June 10th, 2010. We couldnt be happier. I was even brave going to get my blood drawn for the first time in my life, that I can actually remember. Ugh, I was dreading that, but it went well.

Other than that, life couldnt get much better. Joe likes his new job so far, and has had about 5 cases. Keep his job in your prayers, as some of this stuff is no good. Also pray for me and baby! Yay! I pray it all goes well, and we deliver a happy healthy baby here in the nine months! Thanks to all our supportive family and friends! We love you all!

Here is the picture we showed to all our parents to announce the exciting news! We did the same thing when we got engaged, so it only seemed fit to do it again for this next big chapter!
