We're Having a BABY!!

We are having a baby! We are both so excited the new changes that will be happening in our lives. We will have one more member to share our fun, daily experiences with. The next question I always get is how did you find out, the better question is how did Spencer find out. I had missed my period for one day and went in the use the bathroom that next morning and decided to take a test. I sat there for what felt like three minutes and it was negative so I threw it away thinking that I would start my period later that day. I went out onto the couch and started reading my scriptures. All of a sudden Spencer came out of the bedroom and sat down on the couch and was like so.... I was like so..... He was like well I am going back to bed then. I thought it was a little weird, but didn't think much about it. I went in the bathroom when I was done reading and looked at the test again and this time it was positive. I looked at the instruction and it said do not look at the test after 10 minutes because there is a chance that it could be a false positive. After three more days of not starting my period I took another test. This time we bought the digital ones that either said pregnant or not pregnant. That is a lot less confusing, that's for sure. Those two lines just don't make sense. This time it was positive!! I went to tell Spencer and he told me that he already knew because the other test that I took was positive. I was like no it wasn't? He said you must not of waited long enough. When I looked at it the test had two lines. So funny! Who can say that their husband found out before they did? Not many I am sure. 


We decided to tell our families on Christmas Eve and Christmas. It might be the only time that we would all be together to tell them at the same time. We made a cute thing that had pictures of our whole family for my mom that had a same note that said +1 coming in September. My mom looked at it first and was like oh....cute.... I think she thought it was Kira's baby without really thinking about the month that the baby would come. When she finally figured it out she pointed to Heidi and Brian because we had given her the gift together. Then they pointed to us. So funny!


Spencer's family was next.....Michelle had found out in the mist of her helping us make all the gifts. We gave them a birthday calendar that had an extra circle under September. She opened it and the timer went off for the cinnamon rolls and Scott left the room to get them out of the oven. Debbie kept turning the circle over to try and look for a name, but never said anything. Then she was finally like why is this one blank? Then I am sure by the look on our faces she figured it all out. We had back up gifts just in case they never got it. It is crazy how much our moms are alike. They both took for what seems like forever to figure it out.


Since telling our families we figured out that we are actually due August 22. I didn't know what I was doing when I figured everything out.


Here I am at nine weeks. You can't really see much, but I have just a little baby bump.
