Two years ago, our new journey was being engaged. This past year has been being a married couple. Now....we get to start another new journey: parenthood!!
Here's the story about how we found out.
I blogged about our anniversary trip to North Carolina. However, I left out the most important detail. On Monday, the day before we flew home, we decided it would be fun to find out if we were pregnant while on vacay! Now, to give you some background. For MONTHS before we even began trying to get pregnant, I had been googling "ways to tell your husband you are pregnant." I had all of these cute ideas in the back of my mind and how I would surprise Tyson when he came home from work one night. Well, none of that happened, and it wasn't anything creative and romantic. But, it was still perfect.
We were heading to eat downtown for our last night, but decided to stop at Target and get a pregnancy test. Yes, I peed on it at Target!! (Like I said, not romantic). Then, I hid it in a bag and neither of us looked at on our 10 minute drive downtown. We FINALLY found a parking spot. My heart was pounding. It was time for the moment of truth. In the back of my mind I was thinking "it's negative, don't get your hopes up. There's NO way we got pregnant this fast." I reached in for the test and looked at the little digital screen. Here's what I stared at in shock:
I showed Tyson and we both kind of sat there in silence and shock! I just couldn't believe it. I think I kept telling myself that we couldn't be pregnant because I didn't want to be disappointed. Then when I saw the answer I was not expecting....my reaction was a little delayed!!
About two days after we got home, I took another test just to make sure. I was still pregnant! Hahaha!
We are so excited for what's to come. It's been hard keeping a secret, but now that we've shared, I'm starting to feel like this is so much more real! I've been feeling great and not really "pregnant" at all so it was hard to believe it right away. We've already had one ultrasound and we just heard the heartbeat again last night. Everything is looking good!!!
We can't wait to meet Baby Burton on (or around) April 2nd!
