For a while I was trying to lose some weight I put on in the cold months! Doesn't everyone do that? I went through a friend and got the Visalus Shake information beacause P90X just wasn't working for me anymore. I made it to day 60 and couldn't figure out what I was doing that was so wrong. I would weigh myself and one day it would be 4lbs. lighter and then 3 days later I'd be about 6lbs. heavier (don't judge-there was a method to the maddness that I found out later). So Visalus was what I was going to do and I was going to stick to it! I made it through the first month and could tell a difference. I was exercising, and doing 2 shakes a day and lbs. were coming off! It was amazing! Then once we went to the Nascar race and I ate junk there all day, it was hard to start back on it. I also thought maybe I was just a little stressed out too because I was in the process of changing jobs (yet again). So I thought stress was what was making me gain so much weight!
Well, the month of May finally arrived and I was going to be starting my new job on May 16. I was so excited, the night before I picked out what I was going to wear, painted my nails and toe nails (my sis would be so proud since I never paint them) and I went to bed! Well the next morning, I got up, got my shower and started getting ready! I realized that it was almost that "time of the month," and that I didn't have any signs or symptoms that I normally have. So I decided to get a pregnancy test. I got the test, did my business and proceeded to still get ready for work while the test was brewing!! Paul was up and he was going to run Luca downstairs before he left because he was running a few minutes late for his 2nd day of his new rotation and he didn't want me to be late for my 1st day of work! Well I thought the pregnancy test had enough time to "brew," and I went and checked it real quick. Well, of course I freaked out because it was a big ole' YES +! I got the digital one so I knew it would be right. So, I started pacing our little apartment living room waiting for Paul to get upstairs with Luca. His plan was just to open the door put the dog in the kitchen and tell me "bye!" as he was walking out. He started to do that and I said, "You gotta come see this, this test says I'm pregnant." He looked at me and said, "Well that's nice and I'm happy for you, but I gotta go." He hugged me and left. Now before you all get angry with him for not saying or doing anything after I told him, just keep reading. He was in as much shock as I was! We were just talking about if it was right for us to have a baby right now everything would work out for the best! Well it worked out!! :) He got home from Rotation that day before I did and had flowers and a card waiting for me!
Now, we agreed that we weren't going to tell anyone until we were ready. Well we only wanted to tell our parents and we told our parents that they had to keep quiet about it until we were ready for the world to know! So of course, we told our parents! We wanted to tell them all in person and not over the phone. So that weekend we went home. I told mine first and Paul could only get in touch with his mom by going to see her at work to tell her so we did that! But we also told her she had to keep quiet and not tell his dad because we wanted to tell him in person! She kept a secret, but my dad certainly did NOT! He went to church and told the world! So I decided to make my facebook account private untile we wanted to tell everyone. Well the day I made the facebook public again (which happened to be the day after our 2 year anniversary) someone told the whole world before we could! So we had to announce it! Thanks everyone for the Congratulations and kind e-mails!
And baby makes 3!
