One Year Ago Today...

My darling husband and I saw the most wonderful thing...  Two lines on a pregnancy test!  I can't believe that its been ONE YEAR already!  I looked back at all of the ultrasound pictures, especially our first one, in complete and utter amazement.  Our little boy was the size of a GRAPE at our first ultrasound at 9 weeks!  And now he's the sweetest, most adorable little guy with the biggest smiles and the most freaking cutest giggle.  We have been so blessed to have such a wonderful baby and its just...it leaves me speechless how so much can change in just a year!

Here's my journal entry from that fateful day:

I got my first positive today!

Well I was at my parents and got to calculating... And it seems that I miscalculated my cycle days. (I hate months that have more than 30 days! LOL) So I realized that I should have gotten my period yesterday. I was still feeling symtoms today, along with some new ones: Sore breasts, slight cramping, fullness in abdomen, nausea, increased urination, increased bowel movements, increased hunger, along with a few others.

So my husband and I got home from the parents and I was like, "What the heck? I still have one pregnancy test after this one." So I ran upstairs while dinner was cooking and took the test. And TADA! Positive! (It was one of those Dollar Tree tests even!) So I stared at the test for a little and decided to call my husband upstairs after donning my "Baby" shirt. I was hiding the printing on the shirt when I said, "I have something I want you to see." I moved my hand and his face when blank then with intense excitement and questioning. He said, "Are you serious?" and I told him to look at the test. Sure enough, he saw two lines too! We got all excited and breathless and hugged, a lot, before we dated the test and took pictures.

So after dinner I ran out and got a digital test and we're testing together tomorrow morning. I can't wait to see if we're two-for-two!!!
