I wanted to post this back in January and I thought I had but I realized today that I didn't so here is our little story about finding out we were pregnant and telling our families about it!
We are pretty excited about our latest edition arriving in August and we thought we would share our story, so far, with you guys!
On the tenth of December I was already 4 days late which was unusual so we decided to go out to dinner in Idaho Falls to the Olive Garden because I was craving lasagne but I didn't feel like making it. So we went to dinner and then we stopped at the Walmart there to pick up a pregnancy test and went through the self-checkout. We didn't want to go the Walmart in Rexburg because we were afraid we might run into someone we knew! The package came with two tests and I messed up the first one... People say those things are idiot proof but it sure alluded me.
I could not even handle the whole "peeing" on a stick so we cut off the top (sorry if this is TMI) of a milk carton and stuck it in the toilet. We decided to wait until the morning to take the second test, your hormone levels are higher. So on the morning of the 11th we woke up and I went to the bathroom (in the milk carton that was sitting in the toilet) then Kennedy came and dipped the stick ( again too complicated for me I guess). After a minute of waiting we found out we were going to be parents!
We decided that we wanted to surprise our parents by telling the over Christmas, they did not disappoint. We gave them a frame with this picture (below) inside of it. We were surprised by how shocked they were, but that made telling them even more fun!
We videoed telling our families and their reactions were priceless! Here are a few stills from those videos. I'm glad we will have these forever!
