Little Catch Up

So I guess I should start with the first day I found out about Lil Peanut, March 31st. I was over at Auntie Goo's cleanin' house and Uncle Tone brought home two little precious sticks for Momma...Needless to say those two little pink lines soaked right on through within about 10 seconds!! Thank God Auntie Goo was there with Momma because that was the largest and swerviest emotional roller coaster Momma has ever been on! After about five minutes of hyperventilating, Auntie Goo woke up Uncle Tone and all he could say with those sleepy eyes half closed was "Pregnant? Alright!!" After that, it was time to go home and tell Daddy. Daddy was working on our new house and I pulled him outside and he could see it on my face; we were going to be parents!! Both of us were then terrified and excited all at the same time!

I was so excited to tell everyone but Daddy said I had to wait until we heard it, officially, from the Doctor. So, on April 2nd, Momma and Daddy went to the hospital for a blood test...once again it could not be any clearer.

So, with the results in, it was time to tell Gramy Nancy, Auntie Amy, and Grandpa Eddy. It took Daddy about 45 minutes to tell Grandpa Eddy because he was a little on the freaked side. However, it all worked out and they were so excited to hear about you!!

That same night, we went to Grandpa Crabber's and Grandma Mel's to tell them the exciting news...they couldn't do anything but smile!!! Grandpa Crabber was so excited he told all of his friends at the local watering hole the very next day!

The next day, April 3rd, it would be filled with the biggest challenges of them all; Grany Jani, Nan, and Auntie Lish. First call was to Aunt Heath for a little moral support! Aunt Heath was so excited to hear about you!! Grany Jani was excited that Momma decided to quit smoking...which was the good news before the really good news ;) Nan said she would be all healed up from her knee replacement surgery to pick up her first great grand baby!! Auntie Lish was a little shocked by the news, like everyone else, but was really excited to learn that she was going to become an aunt!! Uncle Michael was the last person to find out that day. It was at his birthday party and he was super excited!! Your cousins can't wait for you to get here!!!

Our first Doctor's appointment was at Dr. Harold Nord's office on April 10th. We learned, once again, that you were going to be an official part of our lives!! The first day we got to see your heart beat was on May 4th, our second appointment. Momma and Daddy were so excited to see your little heart just a thumpin' away...172 to be exact. We could also see your little limbs just a swimmin'....it was the most exciting day yet! We can't wait to see you again...May 26th!!!
