You can call us Mommy & Daddy!
On March 25, 2011 we found out the family of two was now going to be a family of three! Words can not describe what I was feeling at the moment when I looked down at the test that will change your life forever. When I saw PREGNANT, I thought wait are your sure it's not missing the Not. I have heard from different people that you will know you are pregnant. Well I didn't know for sure. I just decided to take a test at night, after feeling sort of nauseated that night. So as Mike was getting ready for work, I went and took the test. I waited for 3 minutes (which is a long 3 minutes) and when I came back I saw the result. I couldn't believe it at first. It didn't seem real to me. So I went and grabbed Mike by the hand and led him into the bathroom and showed him the test. He was in shock as well. We looked at each other, him smiling from ear to ear and me smiling with my eyes swelling up with tears. Then we hugged each other. I still couldn't believe what the test had read, I even asked him to read it aloud. So that night as he went to work, I was so round up I did not get much sleep at all. By this time we hadn't told anyone yet. The next day we went with my parents and nephew to the Tyndall Air Show. I had to tell them so bad. So Mike and I went to Target before heading to my parent's house. And I bought a little nightie jumpsuit with a book my parent's used to read me, goodnight moon. So we head to my parent's house. It was killing me to keep it inside any longer. So we went to their bedroom where they were at, and I showed them what I just bought. My mom said what's that for. Then I announced I was pregnant. And she screamed and cried and hugged me. And my dad hugged me as well. As I could see the tears in his eyes, that he was trying to hide. Still at this point only my parents and brother knew about this. Then later that night I told my sister in law and my niece. My niece and nephew don't quite understand that their Aunt Mitt Mitt has a baby in her stomach. My nephew always looks at me and asks is the baby in there. Well we still were waiting to tell my in laws the good news. We had to wait another 24 hours to tell them, since my father in law was out of town. So when Sunday rolled around. We went over to their house. Gave them a gift for helping us out in different ways. And as my mother in law was pulling out a picture frame that read on the bottom, Grand kids are the most precious gifts. Inside where a picture would be, I wrote on a piece of paper saying you can fill this in November. It took them a little bit to realize what it meant, then everyone was happy and crying and and hugging. So now that everyone in our family knew, we could now tell everyone else. So first thing is first, we announce it on Facebook. So on Monday morning I called and make an appointment with the doctor. I had to wait one whole week till I got in to see Dr. Ingram. Our first ultrasound was amazing. I know everyone says, that you already love the baby inside before he/she is born. Well I never knew how deep that love can be. It was so amazing to see our little baby on the screen. And be able to see his/her's heartbeat for the first time. I couldn't control it I started to cry. I guess at that moment when I saw the heartbeat I really truly believed I was going to be a mommy.
