Game Changer

Yikes. I haven't blogged since December!

To say I've been distracted would be an understatement.

On December 17, 2012 my life, and my husband's life

CHANGED FOREVER!

Dramatic!

What happened?

Well, I peed on a stick.

Now, in normal circumstances,

that wouldn't be seen as life changing,

but more weird, and creepy.

However, when the "stick" is a "pregnancy test",

everything changes.

To tell you the truth, I took the test as a 

precaution, not to confirm anything.

It was getting to be the start of a very hectic

Christmas season, and the amount of alcohol I would have

the option to partake in was quite high.

So, I thought...

I might as well take this test, to prove that I am NOT pregnant,

and then I can go on my merry way and drink the season away!

So, I bought the test, bought some groceries,

came home, did what you do with pregnancy tests,

and more or less forgot about it.

 Imagine my surprise, when 10 minutes later,

I saunter in to the bathroom to confirm my

non pregnant status to be greeted by this:

I didn't really believe the test.

I thought it was wrong, or that it was faulty,

or that I was dumb and reading the instructions wrong.

So I got another one.

 

Let me tell you, it's hard to talk yourself out of 

2 positive pregnancy tests.

So, husband's were called,

crying insued,

and shock pretty much set in,

and has since remained.

I am so freaking excited to be having a baby.

But I am also SHOCKED that we are actually having one.

A few days ago, 

I heard our baby's heartbeat.

Can I tell you how absolutely incredible that is?

I have been pregnant for 12 weeks,

and that is the first time through everything,

that it became absolutely, 100% REAL to me.

My baby has a heartbeat!

EEEIIII!
