Number three...

So last week we had a moment like this:

When we saw this:

But we thought, no, impossible...right?  

I mean, this is one of those $0.25 tests so it's probably wrong.  Because this really is impossible.  No problem.  We would just make a quick trip to the store to pick up a $20 digital test (I mean, really?  TWENTY DOLLARS?!) and it would be confirmed that the test was wrong.  So a digital test and a regular test later and I'm staring at these:

And then there is no denying it.  It is not impossible.  It is our new normal.

And...

We couldn't be happier!

So happy and so excited, in fact, that we just can't keep it in.  I know I'm supposed to be PC and wait the 12 weeks.  But Tim and I found ourselves blurting it out to everyone we came in contact with.  And now, we might as well make it official.  Also, I started showing the second I got a positive test (funny how that happens when it's your third and you're really short) so there is just no way I'd make it to 12 weeks!

We had a day of panic and then God gave us total peace about this.  This baby was meant to be.  This baby has a purpose and my heart is just so happy.  God has a plan and it may not always be the same plan I have for my life, but you know what?  I love that.  I embrace that.  I can't wait to meet this gift in late May/early June.   

And this time, FOR SURE, we will not find out the gender.  :)

And now I can finally start pinning all these maternity tutorials I've been dying to try!
