Life changing events

Well boys and girls, it is official. I am pregnant! I woke up early Saturday morning (6/14/08) and decided to take an early pg test. I figured it would be negative, but I just couldn't stop myself. I about crapped when I saw that "Pregnant" pop up on the digital screen. I stared at it for a second, looked up to witness the look of absolute shock that was on my face in the mirror, and immediately tried to test again. But I couldn't pee anymore! Kinda amusing really, but that's how I roll.
So I don't even really know what I did for the next 30 minutes or so, but I finally just couldn't wait any longer. I go in and lay down next to David and start to nuzzle him and stroke his arm and tell him to wake up. He groans. I whisper "Wake up, we're gonna have a baby..." and his eyes shoot open and in his adorable little groggy half-asleep voice he says "What??" So I tell him again, and he says "Yayyyyy" with this sweet little grin on his face.

It was just precious. We ended up being able to tell both of our families that weekend. Just in time for Father's Day--it was perfect.

So now I am very impatiently awaiting my first dr. appointment. I go first thing on July 8 to do my pre-doctor appointment I guess. I don't know if there will be an ultrasound since I will only be 7 weeks at that point, but I am very excited to see how it turns out.

Having this baby is going to be the biggest adventure we have ever had. I haven't been feeling to bad, I mainly just have an uncomfortable stomach and a little boob soreness at this point, but I really don't mind feeling crappy if it means that I've got a little critter growing in there.

We've already been picking out baby names. Right now, I think it will be Tucker Scott for a boy, and Emma Jane for a girl...but of course that is all up for grabs. I had John and Samantha all set and happy with, but then David just chunked them out with the bathwater! So it's been fun to come up with names together. I'm so excited but I'm trying not to get too comfortable with all of it because I know that so much can go wrong. I am almost afraid to be genuinely happy right now. It's a very strange feeling.

So anyway, I figured I would just write a little blip about what's been going on here lately so that I don't forget down the road.
