It was February 3, 2009 when I went to the doctor because I was not feeling well... I had no idea what was going on until earlier that morning Danielle said, hmm, you think you might be pregnant? I thought there is no way. Well the doctor came in after doing a flu test and said that the flu test was negative but I was pregnant. It's as if the whole world stood still and I was a fly on the wall listening to what the doctor was going on and on about, but I could not respond. I said "wait, wait a second... I'm pregnant? Are you sure? Is it accurate?" I am pretty sure the doctor looked at me like I was crazy! So, here I am with this news eating away at me. William was not only at work, but in a class for 10 hours. So, I go to Big Lots and buy a set of neutral colored bibs. I put one in a valentine's day box (that is all they had) and went to see Danielle at work. She came to the car and she opened the box. All I can remember is that I was shaking and there were tears. After leaving Danielle at work, I went home. I told Ace and Bubba the news first, then I had to tell Bambi that she would no longer be the baby (but that I still loved her). So, here I am sitting in the living room - still shaking- waiting on William to get out of class. I did not want to leave him a voicemail nor did I want to tell him over the phone. Thus, I headed toward the station around 7:30 . 8 pm at night. I had gone to target to find a bib or something that says "I love Daddy" or something like that, but was unsuccessful. I settled with a Dinosaur that sings and wrapped the bib around him and stuffed him in the box. Once I got to the station, I let William open the box. At first, he thought the dinosaur was for him. He was like "thanks?" then he got it. He was actually happy / excited (so he seemed) while I was still freaking out. We talked a while then we called my mom and dad, his parents and his grandparents. It was such a scary yet exciting day!
