The Big News

This is my first attempt at creating a blog, so bear with me. Steve and I wanted to start a blog page so that all you out-of-towners could be kept up-to-date about our little bundle of joy that is on the way. For those of you who didn't know, yes, Steve and I are expecting our first baby at the end of September (the very end, the 30th to be exact). I was driving home from work one day near the end of January, and I just had a feeling I should go home and take a pregnancy test. I really couldn't imagine that I would truly be pregnant, so I decided not to wait for Steve to come home before taking the test. When those two little pink lines showed up indicating I was pregnant, I really couldn't believe it and ended up taking two more tests before I was really convinced. Of course, then I could NOT wait for Steve to get home and share the exciting news. I really don't think he was expecting anything at all, and I knew he would be quite shocked. When he got home, I told him I had something to show him upstairs. So, I led him upstairs and showed him the pregnancy test that was lying on the counter. Yes, he was completely shocked, but in a great way. We were so excited! I don't even really remember what he said, we just hugged each other for a long time, and of course, I cried.
