But then I got to thinking, “You know, you have three of those little buggers. You wouldn’t be that upset if you don’t get that second line yet, now will you? It’s like a science experiment!”<\/p>\n

So there you go. All good science experiements should involve human pee.<\/p>\n

And the first thing I said?<\/p>\n

“Where’s my camera?!” Yep, that’s me.<\/p>\n

I do have another weblog that I have regularly posted to for quite a few years now, but since everybody I know and all my mamma’s friends know about that site, I’m gonna keep all the oh-boy-we’re-havin’-a-baby stuff hidden away deep within the internet until we, you know, tell people. Hopefully I can keep my trap shut until Christmas. We’ll see how that goes.<\/p>\n

Right now, at this very moment, only two people in the world know. Myself and the lady that rang me up in the Fanatical Fan Sports Store in the mall. I went by there earlier today to get some Fanatical Fan-branded baby gear to break the news to The Husband with. At first the lady guessed I was going to a baby shower.<\/p>\n

“No, actually . . .” I replied, ” . . . and, oh my God, you’re the first person I’m actually telling, but I just found out I’m about to have a baby, and this is how I’m gonna tell my husband . . .”<\/p>\n

At this point I started to loose it, then she started to loose it, and she ran around the counter and gave me a big hug and her congratulations. It was a wonderful moment, actually, and the first time so far I’ve had a happy cry about the news — of course, I’ve only known positively myself for about 12 hours.<\/p>\n

The Husband will be home soon, then three people in the world will know. I know I will cry when I see the look on his face.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
