Weekend our life got a little more exciting

I'm writing this post long before I ever intend to publish it but don't want to forget such a life changing weekend. (As you can see I wrote this back in March not wanting to forget these details.. but clearly my pregnancy brain made me forget to publish it haha)

So... We just found out we are pregnant!!!!! Japan was quite the successful trip lol...

We've only been trying for two months but you better believe I have been tracking everything on a fertility calendar of what could possibly be going on in my body if we were "successful" in our attempts. So when the beginning of March rolled around I was a jittery mess/crazy person waiting for the 8th to roll around so I could take a test.. And to back track I had become quite the crazy person analyzing every "symptom" I thought I had wondering if I was pregnant for the last two months. So I was trying to keep the crazy to a minimum so I wouldn't scare Brandon lol.

So what did I do... I went to Walmart the night of March 7th to grab a test with every intention of taking the test without Brandon (We had taken a few tests previously and he told me I was NEVER allowed to take one without him). I just wanted to set my mind at ease and get ready to move on and try for the next month.. So I handle my business and sit and play on my phone for 3 minutes and turn and look at the test expecting it to be negative.... I'm surprised I didn't collapse right there on the bathroom floor. Luckily I just started shaking like crazy, and then my next thought is Brandon is going to kill me. He was headed home from a basketball game so I called to see when he would be home and racking my brain of how I was going to tell him without him being upset.

Naturally he is on the phone when he walks in the door (he likes to always be talking to someone while he's driving) so my idea of just screaming out the news went out the window. I had been making him a plate of dinner so I continued to do that while trying to hide my shaking hands. I kept reaching in my pocket to be sure the test was still there and hadn't fallen out. What seemed like 30 minutes later I finally got him in the living room and just couldn't wait any longer. I grabbed him and told him to sit down... Naturally he resisted and asked what was going on. I couldn't think of anything cute to say so I just said "please don't be mad at me" and handed him the test. By this time it had been almost an hour since I took the test. Which any of you who have used home pregnancy tests would know that sometimes the lines will fade after an hour. So Brandon looks at it and reads it as I'm not pregnant lol... So I have to hurry and point out the fading second blue line and assure him it was much darker when I took the test an hour ago.

We hug and I cry and all that typical first child reaction.... And then Brandon says... Why did you take it without me!?!!? I knew he wasn't going to let that one go lol....

Until the next update from the newly Krupa Troop of 3 :)
