I'm pregnant!!!

It has been two weeks since I discovered I am pregnant and it is still very strange to say those words...I'm pregnant! Baby Voigts was not a 'surprise' but it was still a shock when the first, second, and third pregnancy test came up positive on June 29, 2010. You try so hard for so long NOT to get pregnant and when it finally happens it is a very surreal feeling.



Justin had already left for work the morning I found out. My mom was out visiting us and I knew I had to tell Justin first but I also knew I would not be able to keep the big news a secret until he got home that night so I made up a tiny fib to get out of the house. I drove to Justin's office with the excuse that I had gotten a decoration for his office. When Justin got in the car he was confused when I handed him a small bag instead of a large picture for his wall. Inside the bag were two bottles of bubble bath I had picked up on my way to his office. He looked even more baffled as he asked me why I got him bubble bath for his office. I told him that he was allowed to take baths again. (On a side note, I told Justin he could not take baths while we were trying to get pregnant...causes slow swimmers ;)...and he was NOT happy.) When my statement didn't dispel his confusion, I handed him a bag of positive pregnancy tests...and I'll never forget the look on his face.



Later in the day, we told the rest of our immediate family and they all shared in our excitement.

The last two weeks have been a whirlwind of emotions and changes. Right now it seems like it will be so long until we have our baby in our arms but I have a feeling I'll be singing a different tune in six month ;) I will be 6 weeks tomorrow and in all honesty I am just hoping the next 6 weeks fly by and we safely make it through the first trimester. Happy thoughts!!!

And here I am at 6 weeks :)
