This is what changed on November 4, 2011...
In case you can't see that, it's a pregnancy test. And, YES, it's positive! It turned positive so fast I didn't have time to blink! I immediately called my dear husband who was already headed to his tree stand. Actually, scratch that. I sent him a pic of it and said "do you know what this means?" He, then called me within seconds, and said "are you serious? Are we really going to have a baby?" And with tears I told him it appeared that way. The rest of the day was spent in wonder and amazement!
It gets more interesting from here. You see, we had our first doctor's appointment on November 15, 2011. This is what we saw that day...
Nope. There's nothing wrong with your vision! We are having twins! Apparently, when you turn 30 coupled with the fact you literally just came off birth control a month earlier, your chances for having multiples greatly increases! We were in shock! I believe Mr. C's words to the ultrasound technician were, "I wouldn't be more surprised if I woke up with my head stapled to the carpet." (yes, we love National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation). I cried. He laughed. He was ready for them to be here by that evening. I was still not accepting of the fact that I was carrying twins. It took a few weeks for me to truly process this reality.
Now, I love the thought of two precious babies! However, as some women live being prego, I have not. Enter reason number 2 for having not blogged in months! I. Have. Been. So. Sick. Since week 6 to be exact. What week am I at now, you might wonder. Week 19 and 6 days! Now, it's not near to the extent it was at, but nonetheless still there at times. Sudden, unexpected times. I know it will have been worth it, though, in a few short months.
So, now, you're somewhat caught up. I have another big revealing to post, but I'll save that for another day (soon! Not months from now). Mr. C and I are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our little ones. Then the change is really going to come.
