I can't believe it is real!

It is 6:00 am on December 22, 2007. At 2:45 I took my temperature... about 15 minutes before I normally do. After that I went out to the couch to get Nathan as he had fallen asleep on the couch. My temperature stayed up which made me so so happy! Well I needed to go to the bathroom so since my temperature stayed up I decided I would take one of the Meijer brand tests. Pretty quickly the test came up with a second line!

I thought... okay I will try the First Reponse test. I thought that maybe I saw a line, but on the other hand it was REALLY REALLY faint. So I figured... go big or go home... I pulled out the digital test. I was waiting and watching the hourglass flip back and forth and back and forth... then the alarm on my phone went off. I ran out to the nightstand and turned the phone off. Then I walked back into the bathroom and the test said "pregnant!!!!!!!!!" I was in shock!!!


I looked at the test and then looked at Nathan sleeping in our bed and back at the test again. Then I walked out with my fingers laced together and holding my hands in front of my mouth. I said, "Nathan..." He looked at me and I had tears in my eyes. He looked at me and said, "Did you?" and I nodded and then he said, "Are you?" and I nodded again. I was sort of crying and then I just started laughing and hugged Nathan and he was crying and I showed him the tests.

I still can't believe it and I haven't been able to fall back to sleep at all. I am cautiously optimistic, but know it is really really early in this whole process. I am 3 weeks and 4 days pregnant.
