Bermuda, Bermuda, Bermuda! There really is NO better place to find out that you are pregnant. Joe and I decided to start trying to expand our little family shortly before our trip. We weren't really sure WHAT to expect, how long it would take, etc. The ONE thing we knew for sure was that our family was not yet complete. We both wanted another baby. So, as we packed our bags for this trip, I was sure to pack a home pregnancy test. I wasn't sure if I would use it or not, but thought, "Better safe than sorry!"
On the morning of June 25th, I woke up bright and early to the sound of the ocean below. I could hear the sounds of Bermuda outside my window. It really WAS a perfect morning. The sun was shining and I thought, "well, today is as good as any to find out…" Into the bathroom I went with Joe still snoring on… A few minutes later I saw 2 pink little lines.
I rushed back to bed and snuggled under the covers waiting for Joe to wake up. As I lay there I have a million thoughts rushing through my head: OMG, I'm pregnant,
WOW, Ryder is going to be a big brother, and I wish Joe would wake up. Sleeping in is such a treat to us on this vacation that I wasn't about to wake him. A few minutes later Joe woke up and looked at me. The first words out of his mouth, "did you take the test?" I smiled and handed it to him. He instantly said "Congratulations Momma!", rubbed my belly, and gave me a big kiss! He then exclaimed, "I'm a sure thing!" Oh, men and their masculinity, and the joy of being able to "knock your wife up" on the first try. He was very prou
d of himself. :) Suddenly, we couldn't wait to get home to our first "baby". We were missing him something awful!
We went to breakfast with our little secret and couldn't stop smiling the entire time! We decided today would be a beach day! After all, I've worked too hard to be able to wear a bikini to not enjoy it while I can. We enjoyed the day at the beach, relishing our secret and behaving like honeymooners, hugging and kissing at every opportunity! It feels so great to be in love :)
