8/7 - Our Big News

We are pregnant!!!

On 8/7, we were headed out to go wine tasting with Adria & Wyatt, but I decided to take a test before we went. I didn't say anything to Jason, but went upstairs. I figured I would take the test, set it down, then brush my teeth while it did its thing. Well, I didn't even get a chance to set it down before it showed the plus sign. I started shaking really badly & yelled for Jason to come upstairs.

Jason: What's up?
Me (shaking like a leaf!): mmmm, we are pregnant (showing him the test)
Jason: Cool (he hugged me)

So we called family & friends this is how those conversations went:

Mom (Vicki)
Me: Are you home from work?
Mom: No.
Me: Well I don't want to tell you this while you're driving, but I can't wait! I'm pregnant!
Lots of screaming & me telling her not to crash her car.

Mom (Teresa)
Jason: We are pregnant.
Lots of screaming & happiness. :) Tons of excitement to be having 2 babies coming within 3 months of each other, with Jackie being pregnant too!

Grammy was the only one that made me cry. When I said, "You're going to be a Great-Grammy next year, she started giggling like a little girl. I so wish I had this recorded. I can't describe the happiness I heard in her voice. I know she was grinning from ear to ear.

Brandi
"Awesome, congratulations! (Insert deviant laugh), I'm going to be drunk off my ass in Mexico!" (Family vacation for all of us to an all inclusive resort in November).

Jackie
Jason: We made your baby a cousin!
Jackie: Oh, you made one too!?!??

Dad (Ed)
Tif: You're going to be a grandpa again.
Silence
Dad: Who?
Tif: Me!!!!
Dad was very happy.

Uncle Mike cried when I told him he would be a great-uncle. Uncle Brett laughed like some deviant maniac.

On Skype with Megan, she jumped off of her couch and was so excited. Seeing her in October will be so awesome.

We only started trying in July, so I am feeling extra grateful that it happened so quickly. I don't know how I would have managed having to go through waiting a year or more for it to happen. I feel so very blessed.

I am about the worst secret keeper in the world. At the point of writing this (8/10), I have probably told waaaaay to many people already!
