Yes it is about time.

So life has been a little crazy since I have last posted. If you couldn't tell by previous posts, I have been a little bland. Well Jordan and I had a little secret that we were keeping. And if you haven't heard by now...

Jordan and I are having a BABY!

We are due June 28, 2011 or July 9, 2011. I will have to explain this one...

We first found out in October. I know I have a big mouth so keeping is secret this long has been incredibly difficult! But now that I am exactly 14 weeks, I thought it would be a good time to let everyone in on our good news.

Let me just tell you that figuring out if we were pregnant was the most grueling thing I have ever gone through. I was one week late and still getting negative pregnancy tests. I will never ever buy the expensive ones ever again! Jordan bought me a three pack of the Clearblue (I think they are called) and every single one of them told me no! I was getting super upset. Especially since I had waited a week after my missed period to take it. After we had run out of pregnancy tests, we were at the dollar store. Low and behold and the checkout there are pregnancy tests there for a dollar! So we bought two. The first one I took, was a positive, but the line was so faint that I disregarded it. But when I read the instructions again, the box said, no matter how faint the second line is, it is a positive. It is just so confusing when there aren't words!! the second one that I took definitely had the second line. It was so scary to think, oh my this is actually happening. But I wanted another opinion because those tests are just silly to me.

We went up to BYU-I health center, and I made an appointment for a blood test, because I thought my urine was insufficient. When we got there, the guy handed me a cup and pointed me in the direction of the bathroom. I was quite puzzled. He looked at me and said "pregnancy test, right?" I nodded and then told him I had ordered a blood test. He took the cup from me and then a mean nurse came up to me and said that they didn't do blood tests anymore without a doctor's order and I was too late for an appointment so I could have the urine test or not at all. I wouldn't have been so upset, but I had gone to the bathroom right before I got there!! I asked her how much she needed, and she said just enough to cover the bottom of the cup. Well, I pushed it out. She came back about 30 seconds later and asked when my last period was. She then asked me to step into the back. She handed me a piece of paper that said pregnancy: positive. Date: June 28, 2011. It was so surreal!!

I walked back to Jordan, who had heard the whole thing, I was trying not to cry and we walked to the exit door. Jordan stopped me, gave me a huge hug, and said, "We are going to be parents!!" So then I started crying. Haha. I am a baby. But it was a special moment.

A couple weeks later we had our ultrasound with our saw our baby!! Baby likes to sleep upside down, so all the pictures had to be turned around so we could see our little one. But the last one where it was just the 2D showed  our little baby, and I swear it was waving at us. :) It's little hand was fluttering back and forth. It was very special for Jordan and I.

Well we hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and we hope everyone has a happy new year!! We'll keep you posted!!
