Baby Allen!

I found out I was pregnant on December 1st, 2012. I woke up that Saturday morning knowing that Aunt Flow was supposed to make her appearance that day, but I realized that I hadn't had any of my usual symptoms leading up to that day. I usually get really depressed the week before and cramping a couple days prior. But I actually felt pretty good! So I went in the bathroom and took a test! This is how it looked:
I couldn't believe it! It finaly said PREGNANT! Yes, we had been trying for a few months, but I was still expecting it to say Not Pregnant. :) Chris was still asleep in bed, so I went in there, jumped on the bed and told him that I had something to tell him! I then showed him the test and told him I was pregnant. He couldn't believe it at first. And yes, he was still trying to wake up, and pretty sure he was still in shock, so it took him a little bit for it to sink in. Haha

I told Chris that I really wanted us to wait to tell our parents on Christmas Eve, with a cute gift announcing that they were going to be Grandparents. But after the first day of knowing that we were pregnant Chris had already told like 10 people! Don't worry I told a few people the first day too, like my sister Bethany, my BFF Sarah, and Stephanie. We were supposed to go to his parent's for dinner the next night, and I didn't think that he would be able to go through the dinner without telling them. :) After church on Sunday Chris and I had tithing settlement and Chris ended up telling our Bishop I was pregnant too! I then knew there was no way he could keep a secret, and I could also tell that he really was excited about it. So that made me happy, and decided we should tell his parents that night.

We told them as soon as we got to their house, and boy were they excited! There was a lot of screaming and clapping and jumping up and down. :) I was actually glad we told them cause it would have been hard to keep it from them anyway. We can't wait for August to come! And it's so fun cause Sarah is pregnant too! She is 5 weeks ahead of me, due July 7th. We have always wanted to be pregnant together and it's finally happening! Yay!
