We have a little Surprise

We have a big surprise that we have been holding in for a few weeks. 

Connor is going to become a big brother.

March 2014!!

And we couldn't be more excited.. :)

 We weren't trying, actually we weren't going to start trying till after the wedding.

But over the 4th of July i was supposed to started the wonderful monthly gift. When it didn't come it was very weird for me. Now that i was on the pill my periods came right on time. I was cramping the whole weekend so i knew that i was going to start.

Well after a week of being late i thought to myself, could i really be pregnant??

I told Logan about it and he said just go get a test and we will see what it says. I took it that next Monday and it came up negative. So i just went on with my day. Deep down inside i just knew i was pregnant, for some reason i just knew i was. I told Logan i still believe I'm pregnant. Logan said just wait a week or so and take the other test and see what it says again. 

I waited and waited well really i only waited a few more days. Friday morning i woke up and took the test first thing in the morning. I swear within a few seconds it come up positives.. 

I was in shock and just looking at myself, i couldn't believe it. I have waited so long to be pregnant again. It was just the most amazing feeling in the world to know i was going to be able to bring a new life into this world. I was going to be able to have Logan with me each step of the way. 

Right then and there i just knew i had to do something for Logan to tell him...

I had all day to think about something. But really couldn't think of anything cute, and i didn't want to go any longer without telling him. I was so excited.. So i went to walmart and got two little outfits, one boy and one girl. I layed it on our table with the pregnancy test. 

I ended up having to go to work for a few hours and i didn't think about taken it off and waiting till i got home to show him. So i get this text from Logan and it says "Are you for real, am i really going to be a daddy?"

I ask him what it said and all i get back from him way :) :) :) :) :) I love you!

It was such a great feeling when i got home that night. Just to see how excited he was. 

So the next day i called and made an appointment with my doctor. we had to wait a week to see her. 

We were able to do an ultrasound and all you saw was a tiny black dot. I was still to early to hear a heart beat but it was confirmed that we were going to have a little baby on the way. 

The next day was my birthday and i couldn't hold it in anymore i told Logan that we need to tell our parents. So my birthday Logan parents took us out to dinner and we told them by showing the ultrasound and Barb started to cry and was just in disbelieve, Scott look over to the other table (It was a friend of his) and said I'm going to be a grandpa. It was such a great feeling to see how excited they all were.

Next we headed to my parents to tell them. We did the same thing by just showing the ultrasound. Mom cried and dad just smiled from ear to ear.

Connor was SO excited, he has been talking to us about having a baby sister for the longest time. So when we told him he was jumping up and down and gave us a hug. Knowing that Connor is going to be a big brother is the best feeling ever. He will always have someone to play with and someone to talk to. I just cant wait to see what he is like when this baby is here.

Some of the thing he has told me the past few weeks have been so funny.

"So Mom when you went to the doctor the doctor put the baby in you huh. Did the put a girl or boy. I really want a girl.

We went bowling.  Mom please be careful cause the ball could really hurt the baby

Mom i will wake up with the baby at night and bring her to you. OK"

I think he is a little excited

As the weeks went on we told family members and friends. This time will be totally different from me being pregnant with Connor. I was 16 and i was scared. No one knew about me being pregnant, so being able to tell everyone is just amazing. Having Logan with me, just makes me feel so much better about everything.

Just last week we went to an other doctor appointment to hear the heart beat and make sure i was as many weeks as she had thought. I was so happy to hear the heart beat, i swear its the best sound in the world.

I was right on track 8 weeks and babies heart was 170 and looked great. Just seeing that little heart beat was amazing. Knowing i had a living baby inside me and i was the one take care of him/her for the next 7 months. Its just amazing.
