December 21st-I remember finding out I was pregnant, the only reason I took a test so early was because Cali (the furbaby) started looking at me strange and would just stare at me from the other side of the couch, I would even tell Jeremy, "babe, look at her, why is she just staring at me?" I remembered reading something that said a lot of times dogs can tell your pregnant before you can because of their sense of smell and hearing. So, I was on Christmas break from school and running errands. Before heading the gym I was like ehhh I'm just going to stop at the dollar store and get a test because I didn't think it would work since it had only been a few weeks. Naturally I couldn't wait until after my workout to get home and rest so I decided I'll just take do it in one of the stalls in the gym hahah. So I did and right away there was a line, a faint line but clear as day. I remember texting my friend Beth who is a nurse and showing her a picture and asking her, "how accurate can this test really be? It's from the Dollar tree" her response was, "congrats you're pregnant, Merry Christmas" needless to say I still didn't believe her so I told her I was going to work out And after my workout I would go buy an expensive test and test again. When I left the gym that was exactly what I did, I got one of those digital ones that would even tell you how many weeks you are, sure enough it showed up positive and estimated 1-2weeks. I was excited and nervous all at the same time.
My next thought was now I have to tell Jeremy. I wanted to come up with a cute/special way to share the news with him and I of course wanted to include Cali because she is a part of the family . So I got a cute little shirt that said big sister and took a photo of her in it and put it in a frame for him.
December 23rd- today was the day I was going to tell Jeremy, I don't know why I was nervous, we had talked a lot about having a baby and he had even made a comment about how he was getting old and didn't want to be an "old dad" but I think it was just the thought of, "our life is about to change forever". So I wrapped up the frame and told him I had an early Christmas gift for him, when he opened it and saw the pic, I could tell he was surprised and happy.
