How We Found Out

I wasn't expecting my period till the next day so I wasn't even late but I decided to take a test anyway! So, I grabbed one out of our medicine cabinet, peed on it, left it on the counter and went to go make the girls breakfast. After breakfast I went back to check the test and immediately thought it was negative. On my way to throw it out I took a closer look and saw a faint line! I went and grabbed another test just to make sure! ALSO POSITIVE!

Thursday, August 9th

So...I immediately texted a few of my girfriends to share the news. :) Some of you may think thats weird to not tell my husband first but you have to remember that this isn't our first rodeo, this is baby #4! LOL!

Since my husband had already left for work, I figured I had the ENTIRE day to figure out an awesome way to tell him the good news!

If you know anything about us then you know that all our girls have been "Surprises"! This is the first time that we had actually had talked about having another baby before I became pregnant!

My usual M.O. is to call my husband at work hysterical, crying to the point that I cannot even get a word out because I am just so overwhelmed by the surprise and emotion of it all. He then gets to play the guessing game of whats wrong while I sob hysterically into the phone...."are the children ok? Was somebody in a horrific car accident? Is the house on fire?" etc...

So, when I can actually manage to get the words out, as you can imagine, it's a bit anticlimactic. LOL

"Oh, you're just pregnant? Phew! Thats cool, see you when I get home tonight. Love you, Bye."

I figured that this time around I would tell him in a fun way. What I decided to do was make the background of his laptop say this.

Funny right? I thought so. ;)

AND THEN I WAITED....

AND WAITED SOME MORE...

8 hours is a long time to wait for your husband to come home from work when you have something super important to tell him!!!

He came home at 4:30. And of course this has to be the day that he doesn't check his computer first thing! It took him an hour and a half before he sat down to check his email. It was TORTUROUS to say the least.

When he finally did...

It was awesome! He was so surprised!

We can't wait to welcome a new little one into the family!

EEEK! I'M SO EXCITED!
