So Robby and I had just finished creating this masterful life plan for the next 3 years of our lives, I thought it was pretty perfect! I guess there was a better plan waiting for me that I wasn't aware of at the time we were making our own plan....
At first there was just one line coming in and I was like, see nothing to worry about! But then all of a sudden this second line started fading in and naturally, I started shaking it, trying to get it to go away---obviously that didn't work. I wish I hadn't, but I just started BALLING-like historically crying and called Robby in panic. I think I called him 3 times and he just was not answering and I needed his voice of reason so I figured id get him to call me if I sent him this picture...
And then he called me haha he told me everything would be fine and to come pick him up from school, so I did. He just looked so calm and happy, while I was such a mess and so scared. He gave me this big hug and picked me up and was like "WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A BABY!!!!" and he was SO excited! I called my mom but I still was just crying and couldn't make out any words-she was freaking out, she thought I got hit by a bus or something-so Robby took the phone and told her we were pregnant and both our families are just so excited for this little baby and now I am sooooo excited!! I couldn't ask for a better plan :)
We were told to NOT tell anyone we were pregnant until we were 12 weeks along, so hard! And we were going to wait until we did move down to Utah to get an ultrasound-but that was just too long of a wait! So we scheduled our first ultrasound yesterday, my birthday, to see our little alien. HE IS SO CUUUUUTE!!! He/she was so calm, lazy like his momma in there, but would move around when we poked at him. I think ill be poking at him/her a lot now cause it was so cute to see this little baby move around in there! It felt so surreal but I could not stop smiling and staring at this little being that was growing inside me.
I think its the cutest little alien, I cant wait to hold it in my arms but I am also so excited for it to grow and kick around in there too-i'm sure ill probably want him/her to stop once I actually feel it and it hurts me-but right now I couldn't want it any more! :)
Robby wants a girl but I want a boy---any guesses so far??



I 'want' it to be a girl, but my money is on it being a boy.
ReplyDeleteI already love this beautiful baby growing inside by beautiful baby!
Love you,
Mom
I love this post! So well written! Baby kicks don't start hurting until the end when baby gets stronger. There's just so much to look forward to haha. I love your alien too! Caiden can't wait to see his cousin!
