Plus One

Hmmmm, wonder what that could mean. :) 

I'm sure most of my reader's already know the news but I just wanted to share the story behind the news!

One morning in December I woke up and decided to take a pregnancy test. I had had a few "scares" over the past fews months so I decided to be proactive and take a test before I freaked myself out, waiting for "that time" to start. 

Surprise, surprise! It was positive. Definitely not what I was expecting. I went into the bedroom and asked Eli if I could turn on the light (he was just waking up). He grumpily agreed. He woke up rather quickly after that! I showed him the test, his reply, "what does that mean?". It was one of those cheapo tests which shows + or -. He was just as shocked as me! 

While we are excited now, the news wasn't what we were expecting and I had a hard time being excited. You see, it wasn't apart of my plan. In fact it threw a kink in my plan. But then I realized that God obviously has a different plan for us (even though sometimes I wish it lined up more with my plan) and a WAY better plan for us than I could ever imagine. The last few months have been a painful journey of learning to trust my entire life to His hands. 

Now I am 17 weeks 2 days and we get to find out whether it's a boy or girl on the 20th! 

9 more days!!!!!

Eli thinks it's another boy. I honestly have no feelings either way.

Although, I do have to admit I really want a girl. :)
