It Worked!

Can you believe it!! It really worked!!! We are pregnant!! After all the hard work, shots, money spent, emotions, fiber & gas to the U of U; it worked!!! I know it sucks that we aren't that far along and telling everyone, but how can we not!! With all the love and support that you surrounded us with, how can we not say Thank you! We are 4 weeks and due November 4th!! We are so excited!!

Today was a long day! We left for the U this morning at 7:30, it was a pretty quiet ride down. We were both really nervous not knowing what to expect. We got there around 8:30. They told us they were going to take my blood and let us know in a couple of hours. WHAT! A couple hours! Your killing me smalls!! They told us to go get breakfast and hang out. Well - we ate breakfast on the way down there so - we went to the zoo!! They opened at 9 and we walked around for about an hour until they called us. The zoo was so much fun! There wasn't hardly anyone there and all the animals were out moving and eating. It was amazing!! The doc called us about 10:30 with the good news. "You are pregnant!" We were by the apes and we both started crying! Thank goodness no one was around, lol!! We wanted to run out of there so we could tell everyone, but they had just let the new baby elephant, Zuri out and we wanted to see her. So cute!

Baby Zuri!
Our babies 1st trip to the zoo!!

We headed back to the doc, got our meds and directions and headed home to tell the family. We have to go in 2 weeks for an ultra sound to make sure there are no problems and then it's on to my regular doctor. They said we would be able to hear the heartbeat in 2 weeks! WOW!! It was a long day, but so exciting to tell our whole family face to face. Sorry we left everyone on pins & needles until we were done!!
I will continue to post on this blog about my pregnancy - I am sure I will have some interesting stories!! So far I haven't been really sick or anything, no cravings, no loss of hair, no tenderness. I know I just jinxed myself. I have been extremely tired and my mind is gone. I am forgetting everything. It's crazy!!

Thanks for all the love, support & prayers!! We couldn't have done it with all of you!! So, Thank you!
