I thought for my first blog I would share when and how I found out I was blessed with my little blueberry. That is what I am calling my baby right now.
Benjamin was over at my parents house working on some projects for my dad. I stayed at home trying to work on my spare bedroom, which is the worst room of the entire house. Its really the dump room. Tons of it is Benjamin's games etc for selling and all that fun stuff. Needless to say, no matter how much I love someone, I don't let them see that room. Just a second, be right back. OK, I am back. Sorry, just thinking about that room made me go check to make sure the door was shut. Well, any ways. I was feeling really tired more than usual and no matter how much caffeine I drank that day I still wanted to take a nap. I went downstairs to take a pregnancy test just in case but was really thinking it will be negative but for peace of mind. I went to the bathroom and proceeded with the clear blue pregnancy test. I sat it down and was fixing to go back up stairs and was going to come back and check in a minute. Well I took a quick glance down before going back upstairs and that is when I saw the words in bold PREGNANT! All I kept saying was, "oh my gosh!" I was by myself and about broke my neck over a pile of clothes trying to find keys and purse. I got my phone and was about to drive to Kelly's. On the way over I called her to see if she was home and she was on her way to Noah's Super 16tn party. Well I could not wait and blurted it out. We talked for a few until Matt got in the car and I headed to the store to find something unique to tell Benjamin.
I am notorious for giving presents early so I have to hide them well so I don't give them early. Problem is that I tend to forget where I hid them. So I found a shirt box and put the item in it and headed off to my parents house. I drove to my parents and went into my parents room. I shut the door and told my mom I really needed to talk to her and see what her opinion was on something. She looked concerned and waited for what I had to see. I blurted it out and showed her the test. We hugged and she asked me if I had told Benjamin yet. I told her I had not and she scooted me out of the room to go tell him. At the time my dad and Benjamin were working in the office. I knocked on the door and asked my dad very calm if I could speak to Benjamin alone for a moment. As my Dad left Benjamin kept saying, "please honey just a minute and we can talk." He was very enthralled in what he was trying to finish for my dad. I waited patiently while eagerly I wanted to shout it out. Finally he sat down and asked me what was going on. I told him that while I was doing some cleaning today that I found one of his birthday presents that I hid so well I forgot about it. He was like, "really, are you serious?" He said down and opened the box to find a little yellow onesie that said, "Daddy plus Mommy equals Me." At the end of it was a baby smiley face. He took a look at met with big eyes and said "really." He eyes begin to water up and jumped up to hug me. We were on cloud 9 for the rest of the night. He kept saying the rest of the night, "I'm a daddy." I will never forget that night of when we find out about our little blueberry.
