You probably know by now that we are expecting!

20 weeks away!
20 weeks away!
However, not many know the confusion and the
"What in the worlds.."
that had to be overcome in order to come to grips with that fact.

that had to be overcome in order to come to grips with that fact.
Now I can honestly say we are SO excited!
But let's just be honest here.. It didn't start out that way.
Ahem.
So, I woke up on Black Friday morning and I felt kinda sick. However, this had been the norm for the past month or longer.
Not so sick I couldn't do anything. I just always felt a little sea sick, kinda weird.
I never get sick, so I didn't make a big deal out of it. I barely missed any of my classes during fall semester, and kind of just ignored how I felt.
But that Black Friday morning, something was off.
And I know you're thinking, well duh you just had a Thanksgiving feast the night before.
But I just had this.. feeling. Something else might be going on. Pregnancy crossed my mind for the first time that morning, but I pushed it aside. There was NO way.
Later, Jon suggested we spend the day shopping. Yes, he wanted to spend the day shopping.
Obviously I wasn't gonna turn that down.
So we shopped all day! So much fun, I love that guy. We only bought a few things but it was a blast:)
That evening, we were in Target. It wasn't until we were heading to leave that I had this thought that I should purchase some pregnancy tests.
Jon knew I hadn't been feeling well. But both of us didn't even think pregnancy would be the reason at all since I was on birth control and took that pill like it was my job.
Anyway I said,
"Can we grab some pregnancy tests JUST so I can be at peace knowing that's not the reason?"
He said it was a good idea.
So we did.
3 positive tests later and here we are.
It took me until just a a couple months ago to stop being in denial.
As guilty as I feel looking back,
I just couldn't shake the thought that : This wasn't supposed to happen yet.
These feelings continued for the next month and a half until my 12 week appointment.
When we heard the heart beat ♥ ♥ ♥

I've been in love ever since!
Even though we had to start from scratch on everything we had planned, we have been so blessed already to have found a plan where I can still finish my degree and even work from home in the process.
And after a few months I'll be back to work, because Jon's school will slow down and he will just be working as an EMT twice a week.
Life is going to go on.
Not only that, I can't shake the feeling something amazing is about to take place.
We are so excited to meet her:)
