Surprise!

Monday November 1 was a very special day this year. This day is always special because it is Jordan's birthday, but this year he got the gift he has dreamed of. I went to work on this day because my brother and his family stayed with mom. When I got off work I went to Mom's house and Emma begged to go to Yaya's house. So with Mom's ok I packed her up and went to my house. Jordan had a couple of the guys over to watch football and play pingpong which is pretty normal for our house so Emma played with them and ran around for a little bit and then she started begging for a bubble bath PLEASE!!! So I gave in again and put her in the bubble bath. While she was playing I thought to myself I should take a pregnancy test. I should have started on Sunday so I always take tests if I am not running on time. Well to my surprise this test had a light blue line. I freaked. I texted my sister in law to see if that was normal for test to have a very very light line she said YES. I texted Jordan and said get in here now! After 5 seconds I texted him again and said HURRY!!!! I just handed him the test. And he looked at me and said "Is this my birthday surprise?". Bless him he thought I had known all day, but I hadn't. So the next morning Emma in tow I headed to the CVS for some digital ones. I need to read it! Well they said pregnant. So I called the OBGYN and got an appointment for Wednesday. They confirmed we were almost 5 and a half weeks. WOW WE MADE IT MONTH is what I thought hahaha. So Jordan and I have now informed our family and most of our closest friends. We really can't keep a secret. We will go back on Dec. 9 for an ultrasound and I can't wait! I will inform my work after the ultrasound, but I just had to blog about it. We always have someone's kids at our house so it will be slightly different to have our own, but we both feel very prepared.

Sorry I don't write in paragraphs very much LOL
