Our Blessing(s?)!!!


The movers got ahead of schedule in their packing and loading on Tuesday. Because of that, they were able to deliver our belongings and furniture a day early - which meant that we were able to officially move into our house yesterday! :)

I knew that I wanted to take a HPT when Aaron was around and so I had planned to test Friday morning before my beta. However, when we moved into our house a day early, we decided to test on Thursday morning. We became so impatient that I convinced Aaron to let us test last night. We both stood there while the 3-minute clock (it felt more like 3 hours) took its precious time calculating my results. I became so nervous that I said to Aaron, "Let's go out of the room and come back in the room in a few minutes." Aaron said, "No, I want to watch it." But, I left the room and shouted from the other room, "It's taking too long - it's going to be negative because if it was positive, it would have known by now." (After all of my trust in God answering with a "YES!", I'm ashamed to say that I let fear take over my heart the minute I opened the test...) Midway thru my sentence, Aaron shouted "It says "YES!" - I ran and looked at that test and couldn't believe my eyes! (It was kind of backwards...usually a wife takes a HPT and tells her husband she's pregnant, but I was too nervous to look so my husband knew before I did - haha). Since I had 2 HPTs in my box, I took another one at 4:00am and it also said "YES!" It's still so early, but we couldn't help but tell our family, who of course are thrilled! PRAYING FOR STRONG BETA NUMBERS TOMORROW! :)

Thank you, Jesus! We are so thankful for this blessing(s?)!

I have goose bumps!! I'm so happy and excited for you! Ok- I'm going to admit this on your blog (Britney and Tracey already know) I took an hpt Sunday morning and Monday morning, too. I acted the same way you did. I ran out of the room, buried my head in my pillow, with nerves racing throughout my body- too scared to look. Byron was the one who told me ours was positive too. Very funny!!! Can't wait to hear your numbers tomorrow!

Completely thrilled for you! What a blessing. Rejoice in this good news and I just know your beta will be great...those digital tests require more HCG than the line tests....so that is usually a good indication things are going in the right direction.
Congratulations.
