I had my usual mug of Red Diamond sweet tea for breakfast.
It’s my favorite drink.
I immediately threw it up.

For lunch, I sat in my car eating Taco Bueno. Actually, I
devoured the bean dip. It’s delicious. Best bean dip ever.
Except that I hate bean dip of all varieties.

What is happening, taste buds?

While waiting for Peyton at the dentist, I made a cup of
coffee. Immediately, my stomach was in my throat. It was everything in my power
to not get sick in their waiting room!

I was supposed to start today, but nobody ever showed. I
just got off birth control on March 1, so I assume my body is still adjusting. But
I do start to wonder…

Aunt Flo is still a no show! I started putting two and two together,
and decided that THIS IS IT. I drove my happy bum to Target, acquired the almighty Starbucks (all praise the Caramel Macchiato with Coconut Milk!) and peed on a
stick. Alas, it was negative.
At baseball practice that night, I told my fellow baseball mom Lindsay that it was
negative. She said, “You will know when you are.” This really stuck with me,
because I really THOUGHT that I was. “No, trust me – you will know.”
Fast forward a few days…

Chris was in Las Vegas for work, and I couldn’t sleep. I tossed and turned, tried yoga rests,
counted breaths… nothing worked. I was wide awake at 3am, with a feeling in the
pit of my stomach. Lindsay was right – I would KNOW. I just didn’t have an
explanation for HOW I knew.

I woke up almost an hour before my alarm (for those of you
who are counting, that’s 2 hours of sleep, and I haven’t slept soundly since!),
and immediately took a test. There is was. A double line. A faint double line,
but it was there. I wasn’t sure I trusted my own vision, so I sent a photo to
my friend Shannon in Maine. She confirmed, which is basically the Biblical Word for me.
Peyton had another dentist appointment at 9, and my doctor
somehow got me in to see him at 9:15. One urinalysis and a blood sample later,
[no, that is not my actual peed upon stick. thanks internet]
I’M PREGNANT.

size of a poppy seed.
Estimated Conception: ummthatsnoneofyourbusiness, but the
Easter Bunny was nearby.
Estimated Due Date: January 4, 2018
Yay Baby Neal!
