AUGUST 31, 2011

Many and probably all of you already know who read my blog. But.... on Christmas Day Nog and I found out I am Pregnant!!! Seriously! Who finds out that kind of news on Christmas DAY? It was the BEST Christmas ever! I woke up that morning went straight to the bathroom and took a test. I had just taken a Pregnancy test 3 days earlier and it was negative so my hopes weren't very high at all. In fact I was convincing myself I wasn't so that when it came out negative I wouldn't be sad on Christmas. But the thought of finding out on Christmas Day just sounded so great I had to take one anyways. So I pulled out my handy dollar store test, and then set it on the ground while I washed my face and started getting ready for the day. Nog was still asleep which was my plan all along, so I was being really quiet. Then I picked it back up 10 minutes later and could see a tiny light light pink line, I didn’t know if it was real or my eyes playing a trick on me so I starred at it for probably 5 minutes. I still didn't believe it though because after all it was a dollar store test so I said a prayer. I said "If this is not for real make this line go away cause I don't want to get excited then be let down." (As this dollar store test has fooled me before)" I want a baby SOOOOO BAD! So just to be 100% sure I drank like a gallon of water so I could take another test, but this one was a digital test that pops up the word PREGNANT or NOT PREGNANT (I’ve been saving this one). I drank so much water, I felt sick but I wanted to take the test before heading over to my families for breakfast and gift exchanges. So, I hid the pregnancy test from Nog so if it really was for real I could show him the digital one. We went out into the family room and opened our presents to each other, and when we were all done I told him I had to go to the bathroom. I took the test waiting the LONG 30seconds for the timer to stop turning and to pop the word…. and it did! PREGNANT! I hurried and put it in a bag with tissue paper and ran out to Nog telling him I forgot to give him a present. He was really curious though because I am the type of person, that the second I get a present for someone I wrap it up and stick it under the tree within 5 minutes of walking in the house. What can I say, I love Christmas. But of course he still took it and opened it. He pulled out the test (don't worry it has a cap over the gross part). It was so amazing and I recorded the whole thing :) Who could ask for a better Christmas present?! .... We wrapped it back up and brought it over to my families for the secone present for our white elephant gift exchange, then to the Pearce side later on that day :) It was a wonderful day. Nog had been recording when Rae opened the Victoria Secret bag I wrapped it in :) and the family saw. Watching this made me cry. I am sooooooo excited to be a MOM. I cannot wait for August 31st when I get to meet my precious little baby.
