Finding Out

As you can imagine we were pretty stunned, to say the least. I still don't think it's set in yet. At first we weren't sure it was real. I took the home test and then got confirmation with a blood test from the hospital lab. Apparently you can have a false negative test, but almost never have a false positive. This wasn't something we had planned, but I think we will be awesome parents. It just goes to show you, you may have your entire life planned out but sometimes your plans don't align with God's.

We decided when we found out that we wanted to wait and not tell anyone until we could see them in person. I don't know about Eric, but this has been torturous for me. This is something you want to tell your Mom right away, but I am staying "strong" and keeping my mouth shut. My sister, Ashley, was up here on vacation for a few days and I had to keep my mouth shut then too. And while Eric's brother, Jared, was here over the summer we didn't tell him either because we didn't want there to be any way people could find out before we told them. Sorry Jared and Ashley!

The wait is almost over. We'll be seeing you guys in two weeks. And by the time you read this we'll have already seen you!
