Awww
So I want this blog to be a place where I record all of the good and bad things about this pregnancy, so this will be a short post but it was something that I want to remember :)
Yesterday (April 19) my husband was laying in bed and I was talking to him and he leans over and kisses my belly and says "I love you baby," it breaks my heart, he did it about three times, each time looking up at me after, just grinning, I love that he is so excited for us to be pregnant. That's it for today.

The First Freak Out
So Sunday (the 15th).... It was a long, bad day.... I got up and worked from 7 to 1 and went home to sit around and do nothing, but then I got a call from my friend that works for Habitat for Humanity, asking me to come help her set up her new store (it was opening the next day), so off I went. I stayed there until around six and she fed me so I was thrilled, until I got home.
Mind you we had gotten a letter from our homeowner association saying if we didn't fix the weeds, we would get a fine, so I told the boys to fix it and they told me they had. Then I get home, and I see weeds still, it made me livid. I get out of the car and start pulling them myself, once I have a good pile I text a picture of it to my husband to let him know that they did not do a good enough job. He says he will take care of it when he gets home, but by that time I am too far gone, there was a bunch of stuff that they had been telling me they would do but never get to it, so I decide that I might as well do it myself.
I grab the hedge clippers and gloves and start going at it all. I am having a great time chopping and stewing in my anger, doing nothing but making myself more furious (and fixing the hedges), until my husband drives up. As a side note he had also been calling me and not only did I not pick up the phone, I also turned it off so I wouldn't hear it keep ringing.
He says a cute comment and got a glare from me. He gets out of the car and tries to get me to drop the clippers, I told him to go away because I was in a horrible mood and was going to say something mean, he didn't care. He manages to get me inside and then tells me I need to take a nap, because I was exhausted. I didn't want to, I wanted to work on the yard. He told me I had to lay down for at least half an hour, and then I could come back out.
So half an hour later I come back out and work on the yard with both boys until it gets dark and get most of what was bugging me done. It turned out well.
(as a side story, I was chopping off the dead leaves off our palm tree and the edges are pokey so when I get something stuck to my neck, that's what I thought it was so I asked my roommate and he looked scared and said there was a bug stinging me, I tried brushing it off and he told me it was now on my shoulder, AS HE BACKED AWAY FROM ME!!!! I was so pissed that instead of helping me, he ran away, I went inside and saw that I was indeed stung on the neck so I put a band aid on it and went and tattled to my husband :) )
So I know that any Freak Out story is going to put me in a bad light but it's OK because its how I am right now, my mom told me I should write this all down so that I can remember it all and tell my kid how insane I was when pregnant with them and it makes my husband look very sweet because he is dealing with me so well and so calmly.

The Begining
On April 12th, I peed on a stick and found out that I hate the plus/minus pregnancy tests. I thought it was negative so I texted my husband as such, but later that evening when we read the instructions, we figured out that that it doesn't matter how faint one blue line is, if there is a line then it is positive.
So because we are now paranoid, I went out and bought the kind of tests that say pregnant or not pregnant, to make it simple. April 14th, I took that test and yup, I'm pregnant. But because I had gotten two packs for both tests and because my husband was slightly disbelieving, that evening I took another test and I took the last one the next morning.
4 tests later we figure we must be so we schedule an appointment with the doctor and manage to get in on Monday. Monday morning we go to the doctor and they drew a ton of blood, I got to pee in a cup and got lots of information about my upcoming pregnancy. Very very exciting.
