All I can say is I really hope this isn't a dream. We have waited far to long for this to finally happen.It's one of the best Valentine's present that we could receive this year. I didn't have anything that gave it away. There weren't any signs. 

I took a test on February 10, because i couldn't wait till Valentine's Day. Which i was going to test on that day but i'm too impatient.  :)  I couldn't believe my eyes when i saw that the test read positive. Like most women I took another test just to make sure, and sure enough that came out say pregnant! A year and a half of trying and it finally happened. Our family is going to grow!

So now it was time to tell Travis. But I decided to wait till Valentine's Day to actually tell him. But like I said i'm a very impatient person, so I lasted till Tuesday night. 

I told Travis in a very serious voice that we needed to talk. He had the look of "oh crap what did I do now." I put a bag on his lap and told him to open it. At first he say the candy and he was like I didn't do it. (he suppose to be losing weight). Then I told him to keep looking through the bag. That's when he started to realize what was going on. He turned to me and asked " REALLY?" I said "yep". I had made a Daddy Survival kit for him. It had some binkys, bottles, diapers, wipes, rubber gloves, masks, goggles, ear plugs, a onsie, pop and candy, a book and the test.  

We had our first Doc. appointment today. They did an ultrasound to make sure everything was going well and to double check the due date.

Our due date is October 18, 2013. We are 8 weeks 3 days and counting. I'm having very minimal morning sickness. I get nauseated in the evening and sometimes throughout the day but nothing to bad.
