I'm Pregnant!!

Well, it's been 3 weeks since I found out that I'm pregnant! I am still in shock by the news...I think Gilbert is shocked as well. I am not sure how I am going to be as a mom, but I hear it'll just come naturally. I have my appointment with the doctor for my first sonogram on October 3rd.
This whole thing is going to be a new experience for the both of us, but we are excited nonetheless!!

How it all happened....So Gilbert and I were on our cruise, and I was going to the bathroom every 5 minutes it seemed like, and I was exhausted! On previous cruises, I would just go and go, and this one, I would come back to the room after an excursion and sleep for 4 hours at a time! It was incredible! Gilbert kept asking if I was okay...I said "oh yeah just tired." Then one day at sea he said maybe you're pregnant, and I was like nah...but he would always reach over and rub my stomach saying I know something is in there....so then I got to thinking maybe we shouldn't do our snuba excursion, not sure if that would be okay if I was pregnant. So we swapped that excursion with snorkeling, which was just as fun!

As soon as we got back from the cruise, I waited until Monday and took the test. Gilbert was at the dentist, and I had some time alone, so I took it. As soon as I peed on that stick, there were 2 lines! I thought oh my God what have we done, could this be false?! Then I read there are usually not any false positives, only negatives! Oh crap...it hit me all of the sudden I was pregnant! I immediately called my friend Barbie who informed me to take like 6 more tests! I called my mom, and asked her what she thought, and she was elated! Of course she HAD to call my dad and tell him too! Gilbert finally called me back on his way home, and I said I need to talk to you about something. He said "oh just tell me!" So I said "well, I think I'm pregnant!" He said "what makes you think that?" I said "because I took the test and I got 2 lines!!" As soon as he got home, we rushed out to Target and bought another test....a digital one (for more accuracy), and that one came back positive too! Holy crap....it's really happening, we are going to be parents!!!
