Surreal!

We found out we were pregnant on Wednesday and it is now Sunday, so tomorrow I will be 5 weeks along. My beautiful cousin got married yesterday and it was so much fun! 

We have been so busy lately that I feel like it has not even begun to sink in that I actually have a little baby(babies) inside me. Wow, as I sit here finally able to relax and think about it I am a bit overwhelmed with emotion. We are absolutely beside ourselves and feel blessed beyond belief. 

So...a little bit of details....Wednesday I went in to have my blood drawn at 7:00. That morning Shaun and I decided that instead of waiting until Thursday we would have them leave a message at home. When I got home from Parent Night we would listen to the message together. 

The nurse quickly shot down that idea when she told me that they cannot leave a message since it is medical information. I then asked her to call Shaun and quickly left on my way to school. 

At recess Shaun called me in a panic saying his phone was mysteriously dead after being fully charged and he did not have the nurse's number....blah, blah...long story short...he got his phone working and at lunch I got a call from him. 

My heart was POUNDING! I said "hey babe," he said "hi mommy, you're pregnant!" 

Silence, tears, more tears and such joy came over me. 

He went on to tell me that she said my numbers looked great. They hope the beta number will be around 100 at that point and mine was 191. She said we are "healthy pregnant" and that everything is looking wonderful. 

Minutes after hearing the news I praised the Lord and went to pick up my kiddos from lunch. What a crazy feeling. Such joy was bubbling up inside of me and I could not wait to get home to see Shaun. 

God is so good. We know it is still very early in the process but we are blessed. 

Baby's first wedding!
