A Life Changing Event

I have decided to write about the trials and tribulations that are about to take over my life. Thanks to Katie Cronin ( I really enjoy reading about Patrick) and a life altering test result that I received today, I decided to start my own blog. Not just for all of you to read  but for the life my husband and I will be bringing into this world. Yes, its what you think...if you didn't already know...I am pregnant! I got the results from the doctor today. I am 6 weeks along. Our little one will be due on September 8, 2012.

All I have talked about for the last year was being so impatient for Jason to come home so we could start our family and our lives together. So much to my surprise when I saw that there were two lines instead of one when I took the test, I went into shock. My hands were shaking and I could barely stand up. I thought I would have been happier but I guess reality kicked in and my mind went into overdrive of thoughts like...How are we going to afford this? Who is going to watch the baby while we are at work? Where are we going to move to? We need to buy a house sooner rather than later...etc. Its amazing what goes thru your head in a few split seconds. Then I decided that until I heard it from the doctors it just wasn't true. So yesterday I went to the lab and got the test done and today I got the call telling me it was positive. I couldn't be more happy. Of course when I told Jason yesterday that there was a possibility that he was going to be a dad of course I get a total boy response "See I told you it would not take long" Leave it to my husband! But I have to admit I am still in shock and it has not really sunk in just yet.  

As for the signs and symptoms I am having due to this little one growing inside me: I have super duper sensitive breasts. Just barely touching them or even bumping them hurts so bad. I'm not liking that at all but it is not as bad as the nausea I am experiencing. Ritz crackers are becoming my friend. I also have been noticing I have been peeing a little more often than usual. But so far that is not so bad yet. But give it a few more months and I will most likely be blogging about that. My jeans fell a little snug but I think that is all in my head. Stay tuned for that complete and utter melt down on that later...

Tomorrow I have my entire immediate family coming over for dinner (Mom, Dad, Jared, Ross and Braiden) so I can tell them the EXCITING NEWS! Once I tell them then I can tell the world. I am not good at keeping secrets and tomorrow will drag, but I know I can keep my mouth shut for a little while longer. Heck if I can go to Bunco tonight and see my mom and some how manage not to tell her I think I should be able to make it thru work tomorrow, right??? 

OMG I am going to be a Mom!!!
