A Wish Come True

     After a year and a half of marriage (give or take a month) we decided it was time to grow our family. Matt insisted on having a baby right away, but I wanted to travel first. So the compromise was made... we go to Europe and "see what happens from there."
     It wasn't as easy as we thought! After 3 months, on Thanksgiving, we broke the wishbone and made a wish. ..Without telling each other what one another wished for, we just knew. Another month and a half passed and I was "late."
     I took a dollar store pregnancy test (hey it was only $1 vs $14.99) at 3:00 in the afternoon, on January 18th, and sure enough there were two tiny pink lines. However, the second line was very faint. So I decided to take another one first thing the next morning and the second line was definitely there! Buttttt I still didn't believe it so I took a third dollar store pregnancy test and yup, 2 pink lines.



We wanted to believe it but still couldn't, so I ran across the street and bought a "real" pregnancy test. And after 4 positives, it started to seem real.... Were going to have a baby!!!!!


I took this picture a few days after the news was confirmed. About 4.5 weeks
