I actually found out I was pregnant on Halloween of this year. We had already been trying for about six months, so I wasn't really expecting to actually be pregnant. I wansn't even late, but was supposed to start soon and I happened to have a pregnancy test at home. I remember hanging out with the kids and thinking, what the heck I will just take one for fun, I know it will be negative. Took the test....came back PREGNANT!! I was kind of in shock. Took another one for good measure, and it came back positive again. Its funny how even though you have been trying for something and wanting to be pregnant, when you find out you still get that flood of emotions from excitment to what the - did I get myself into? lol.
So with the twins, I could not hold in the fact that I was pregnant. I had always dreamed of telling my husband in a special way, but with the twins I was so freaked all I could do was send a text saying, "you have to come for lunch, we need to talk." Eric knew right away and texted back that I was pregnant. This time I was hoping to be more unique... I was actually able to somehow keep in that I was pregnant until the weekend. That Friday night I planned a picnic by the lake with eric and the twins. My little sister, Calli, also happened to be there. Halfway through the dinner I asked Calli to take a picture of our family by the lake. Instead of having it on picture, I had the camera set to video. Calli said, "say cheese" and I yelled, "I'm pregnant!" It was funny because Eric didn't believe me and thought I was just joking around to make him laugh. It took him a few minutes to get that I was serious, but it was pretty funny!
Anyways, we are really excited to be expecting again. We have also been scared, but are relieved now that we know it is JUST ONE! I am also being followed by the high risk doctors this time, which is reassuring. Excited to see how this pregnancy goes!
at 11 weeks. Isn't amazing how developed they
already are?
