Dating Ultra Sound

Today was the BIG DAY.  We got to see our little jelly bean.  He/she is measuring at 6 weeks 2 days.  Meaning our new due date is June 15th.  I had to go in and change our pictures, since I thought we were a week further along.  I plan on having another ultra sound to make sure that little jelly bean is measuring where they are supposed to.  We got to see the heart beat, which was an AMAZING feeling.  I can't believe something is really growing in there.  Squeeee!!!!!!

First appointment!

It felt great being told I was pregnant.  Even though I had taken another digital yesterday, just to "make sure."  We went over the paper work, and they did all the blood work.  Because of my history of irregular cycles, they're requesting a dating ultra sound.  It's scheduled for next Monday.  Squeee!!!!!!!!  Hubby & I are so excited to be able to have our first look at Little Gator.  I have a follow up appointment with my doctor in 4 weeks as well.  The next days are going to be so long!!!!

Exciting times

I've taken so many pictures of this momentous occasion, I had to take one more.  It is what our future family is going to look like.  I can't wait!


The future Gator family.  =)

Matt's reveal

I was in disbelief, but could not wait to tell Matt.  I peeked out and told him to give me a few minutes.  I then got out the Gator onesie I had bought as his reveal gift.  I put the Clear Blue on top of it, and the dog's big brother/ big sister shirts on top of that.  I called him in and said he had a surprise.  He turned around and saw the dog shirts.  He was a bit confused because that is how we planned on telling my parents.  He picked them up and saw the positive test.  In his state of disbelief, he said "Really???" about 5 times.  We then embraced and I cried.  I had to point out the gator onesie, since he completely overlooked it.  
This is what I showed him: 



I'm pregnant!

I had tested on the Wednesday and Friday before and had gotten negatives.  Friday really brought me down, so I convinced myself it was still too early.  Sunday morning I checked my temp, and saw it was still elevated.  I wanted to wait until Matt left to test.  But he hadn't, so I waited until he was out of the room.  I ran in the bathroom and did it, then waited.  My internet cheapie test was positive!  I then tested on my Clear Blue.  I got a + sign.  I was indeed PREGNANT.  

How it all started

It all started with this:


It may seem silly but we needed to see that smiley face.  It meant I was in fact ovulating, and it was baby making time.  We went through a lot of emotions those 2 weeks waiting to see if God had answered our prayers...
