Of course the first person I told I was pregnant was Jared! He had gone to the grocery store at like 6:30 am because he "forgot" to check to see if we had meatballs for Nikki's baby shower. When he left I thought, I think I will pee on a stick and see if I'm pregnant (I'm sure that's what most normal people think when they first wake up:) So anyways, I ended up falling back asleep. I heard the garage door go up and I ran to the bathroom. I have no clue what the urgency was ... but I did. I tested and waited and waited and waited for the digital thing to tell me "not pregnant." When it was ready I looked at it, and had to do a second look. I couldn't believe it. I ran downstairs and held it in Jared's face and said, "Do you see what I see?" What does he say? "It smells like pee!" Then he laughed and gave me a hug. We were both surprised and so excited.
So we couldn't wait to tell out parents. Jared decided to call his parents instead of going up to see them. He called and let his mom just talk, like it was no big deal. It was driving me crazy! Finally he said, "Well, Kim passed her test!" Of course she was confused. She couldn't figure out what he was talking about so he said "The test that makes you a Grandma!" She was excited, so he went through the same thing and told his dad.
After getting the house ready for Nikki's shower, we went to tell my parents. I bought a onesie that said "I love my grandma!" I wrapped the pregnancy test in the onesie and put it in a grocery bag. When we got to my parents they were confused and surprised to see us there. I told them I wanted to show them something I got. My mom opened it and was really confused. I put the wrong onesie in it that said "I love my mommy!" She thought it was something I got for Nikki. That is until I flipped the test over. I think her jaw hit the floor. My dad was just as surprised. Then there were hugs all around!!!
I texted April a picture of the the pregnancy test. I was going crazy because she wasn't calling me back. I called her 4 times and no answer. Finally while we were at my parents she called me back laughing hysterically! The first thing she did was make sure it was mine:) Then we talked about everything. Needless to say she was super excited. She told Lukey Kiki had a baby in her belly. Lukey said, "Kiki sick?" April explained I was having a baby. So cute.
Jared called his brother to tell him. Adam and his girlfriend were on a weekend trip to go skiing. He was surprised. Then he asked Jared if he knew how this happend. Jared asked him if he wanted to be an aunt or uncle, so Adam decided he wanted to be an Aunt.
I didn't want to tell Nikki until after her shower because I didn't want to take away from her day. But I soon realized it would be a bigger deal if I did that because all the people would be there. So when they got to my house I called Emylie into the kitchen. I told her to go tell her mommy that she was going to have a cousin in October. She had me repeat it like 3 times then went and told her. At first she didn't understand, then looked at April. April shook her head no and pointed to me. Nikki was really excited, but speechless.
Sooooo.... since we were having a lot of my family over for the shower we had Emylie tell them as well. Needless to say everyone was so excited. It was such a great day. After the shower we ended up all getting together at our house for pizza!! I love spending time with my family.
I can't leave out calling Kyle's family:) I called Adrienne in the morning, but she was knocked out on pain meds from her foot surgery. I decided to call her back after everyone left. She started screaming then put me on speaker phone so I could tell the boys. Jon started yelling, Kyle started yelling "Woo, yea!!" and Matthew thought it was gross!!
The end:)
