We're Pregnant!!!



Hopefully most of you have heard that we are pregnant (sorry if we didn't get to tell you in person!!). Here we are on the day we found out. I love how every time is different:)) I was sitting at the computer one evening while Stephen was out to the store and i started counting days and thinking "i might be pregnant". So i went to the bathroom and used one of our pregnancy tests on hand (we have learned to keep a few on hand!) and much to my surprise (i think you are always surprised!!) it was positive! Thankfully the kids were in bed and Stephen would return soon. Josh and Michelle were over at the time so i waited for Stephen outside. Finally he drove in and got out of the car and started explaining to me all the different kinds of cream cheeses he had bought for our bagels. I snuck the pregnancy test out of my pocket and held it in his face. He looked up and gave a shocked look! I don't think he said anything for about 5 seconds, then he started grinning and asking about me taking it! We had fun celebrating the news and came in the living room and asked Michelle and Josh if they could take our picture. They seemed puzzled but said yes, then both looked a little shocked when they saw us holding the test!!! We had fun that night eating our bagels and cream cheese, watching Star Wars and discussing what life with 3 would be like and if maybe we should get a mini-van!!!
