How We Found Out!




Well, I was just getting back from a girls weekend in Chicago. We had all joked that I was probably pregnant because I was eating pickles every chance I got (Mandingo's)! So when I got home that night I decided to take a pregnancy test to see if my intuitions were in fact real. I took the first one and left the room. I got sidetracked doing laundry and then I came back into the bathroom to get something and realized the test had, what appeared to be, 2 lines! One was light and the other was dark, I thought it was right, but my 5% of uncertainty made me proceeded to take 4 more tests! They all had the same results, but I wasn't convinced, so I went to the store and bought the most expensive digital test I could find to make sure this was what I thought it was.....and it WAS! The only problem was, Ryan was in Asia on a trip for his Master's program and I couldn't tell him over the phone while he was in another country! So I waited 4 days (the longest 4 days of my life!) and decided to tell him when I picked him up from the airport. So he came off the plane, so excited to tell me all about his trip and show me all the souvenirs he brought back but my excitement couldn't wait! I handed him a box wrapped up with the test inside, (the digital one that said pregnant-don't worry I sanitized it!)! When he opened the package and saw what was inside he looked at me like I was punking him (the same look I gave him when he proposed) we hugged and soaked up the moment in the parking garage at Detroit Metro Airport-how romantic!
