It is official!!! Troy and I are going to have a baby. I am so excited. Joyce went to the doctor’s office with me. We tried two of the same pregnancy tests and they were defective but always said we were pregnant the next morning so that is why I made an appointment today with my doctor to see if we were pregnant and we are. I am on cloud 9. I immediately tracked down my mom with Joyce to tell her. She had a tear in her eye. Troy was going to call during his lunch break so I made sure I got home by noon. He called and he was so excited as well. He told everyone at work and the ladies all gave him hugs. Troy came home with a half dozen roses and a snoopy stuffed animal for the baby. He said it reminded him of a snoopy he had when he was a child. Jack gave us a stuffed seal and bath fishy toys. We went out to dinner to celebrate at the Outback Steakhouse with my mom and dad.
Excerpt from my journal:
It’s official! I am pregnant. Hurray. Thank you God and Grammy. I know you made this real and true. I love you. I will write later. I have to eat lunch now. Erin sent us an e-card, and wished us congratulations on the baby news. Joyce gave us a binkie and some spoons and bowls.
