Well most of you know already, but I am going to make an official announcement on my blog. I am pregnant. We found out on Friday. Yes this will be number four. No we are not nuts...lol. Well maybe a little. But yes we do know what causes this and we do believe that we have mastered the art. Just haven't gotten the art of preventing it down yet.....hahaha. But we are super excited.
Ok this is weird. We had decided on doing a joint birthday party for Bradly, Ricky, Krissy, Frank, and I on Saturday Feb. 14. because we all have a birthday in either Jan. or Feb. We still do a little something special on our birthdays, but we always have a joint bash I guess. Either way. I had been wondering what to get Frank and praying too. I just could not come up with anything. So the day before I was sitting there and all of a sudden something tells me to get a pregnancy test. I now believe it was not something, but someone...catch my drift. I had no signs except for tiredness and my vision was a little blurry. But I figured that was from my new glasses. Well I thought to myself, " Ha that would def. be a gift to cover Valentine and birthday, if it was positive." I kinda went into it thinking that nothing would come of it and I would still wind up having to come up with something. But I have heard quite a few times here recently about how God has a sense of humor...lol. And the rest you guys can figure out. Lets just say I had MY gift covered and I guess Frank did too...haha.
Now I will tell you the story of what happened the day we found out. Friday I was making cupcakes for Caylob's class' Valentines party and I needed more sprinkles for them. Wal-mart was completely out so I had to go to the $ store.So Frank, Liana, Jaycob, and I loaded into the van and headed into to town. While in the dollar store I picked up a pregnancy test and before I went outside I hid it in my purse so Frank would not see it. And yes I paid for it. =) Either way I got back in the van and we went to the bank. We kinda agreed that Frank would go in and that it would probably be a min., so we decided for me to go to my mother-in-law's house, which is right down the road, to pick up some things and let Liana go potty. She was doing the "dance" in the back seat the whole time we were trying to figure out what to do. So either way I went ot Dot' s and let Liana do her thing and when she was done her and Jaycob went to play. So I decided to go ahead and take the test. Well in less than a min. the lines appeared and all I gasped and could not breath in for a min. I was def. happy and shocked. Either way I decided right there that I was going to wrap it up and give it to Frank for his Valentine/Birthday gift.
Ok Frank had been up ALL night working and was up really late in the day from all the errands we ran, so he was really cranky. We were in our room and he was ranting about something, I really was trying to listen but I kept zoning out debating on giving him his "gift" early. Finally I decided that it may help lift his spirits if I gave it to him. And I was being selfish too because I did not want to have to hear it all day ;) But either way I pull the test out of my purse and hand it to him. He looks at it and says, "What's this?" Then he said," Are you?....Really?" The whole time I am sitting here laughing and shaking my head yes. And a smile krept across his face and did not go away for the rest of the day.
He was so excited that he went to call my Mom because he knew that she would make a big deal out of it and scream with excitement. HAHA and she did! Then he announced it to the world I believe on Facebook and Myspace. So much for keeping quiet until the first trimester is over...lol. Oh welll he is a proud Daddy and I love that about him.
So now for the details. We are probably due at the end of October. I am trying to get ahold of a doc., because my reg doc. is not accepting new pregnancies due to his retirement in March. I mean come on I am special enough to make an acception for aren't I...lol NOT!! I would retire too as many babies as that man has delivered. I am actually looking forward to trying a new one. I have one that is in my plan that has beed recommended. A friend of mine also told me that she believes he is a Christian man. So as soon as I can get someone to answer the phone there I will make an appointment.
I will keep updates on here for those of you that do not have to suffer being around my emotional self these next 8 months. And for those of you that do have to put up with me I am sorry in advance. Just give me a bit I will get over it =)
Please keep us in your prayers.
Have a good one all!!!
