that we were having a baby? Good story, kind of! It all started when Curtis was making dinner for me one night and he told me that it would be about an hour until we were going to eat. I was so hungry that I totally lost it and was griping at him. He looked at me and asked "What is your problem, are you pregnant or something?" and I shot back "Maybe!". Well that set us off laughing hysterically, but also had us thinking as well. We had some early pregnancy test strips so I though I would give one a try, just for fun. I took the test and waited the obligatory 3 minutes. The test line was very obvious, but I didn't see anything else. I was about to throw it away when I noticed the faintest second line. I decided not to get too excited, and waited to retest in the morning when the hormone levels are supposed to be highly concentrated. First thing in the morning I hopped up and tested again with the same results. Curtis and I agreed not to think to much of the results and to wait a few days before trying again.
The next week I had been up a good portion of one night because I wasn't feeling very well. I called in sick to work and decided to take it easy for the day. I called Curtis at work and asked him to run by the store on the way home for lunch and pick up some soup for me. He also decided to pick up another pregnancy test for me while he was there. I was laid up on the couch watching "Baby Mama" (how appropriate) when he walked through the door and handed me the test, so I went into the restroom and did my thing. I saw the plus sign IMMEDIATELY but I decided to wait the full three minutes before really getting excited. After impatiently sitting on the couch for a few minutes, I went back in and the plus sign was still there! We were so excited! Curtis rescued the test from the trash long enough to take a picture and have proof that Max was on the way. I has been a long 32 weeks since then!
