On Monday, Sept. 10, 2007 we found out we're going to have another baby! On Sunday I was feeling nauseous and I just thought I was coming down with something! Jeff said, "You better take a pregnancy test!" I thought he was crazy, but by the end of the day I was starting to wonder if he was right! The next morning I went and bought some pregnancy tests. Sure enough the first test came out positive right away! It was a test I bought at the dollar store so I didn't completely trust it! So I did another one- POSITIVE! The third time I used the expensive name brand test- just to make sure! That was the one that finally convinced me that, yes we were going to have another baby! Unlike Parker, who was very planned, this baby was a complete surprise! We had just started talking about having another baby, but we were thinking we'd wait several months to get some credit cards paid off and hopefully get a bigger house! Looks like God had other plans!
Jeff was at work when I did the tests so I decided to have a t-shirt made for Parker to surprise him! I had a shirt made that said I'm Going To Be A Big Brother! Right before Jeff got home I put the shirt on Parker and waited! When Jeff got home it took almost a half an hour before he finally noticed the shirt! I thought I was going to explode before he noticed it! Needless to say he was happy but a little shocked also! I've posted some pictures that I took right after he found out! We used the shirt to tell most of our family about the baby! My Mom noticed right away! We took the shirt with us to Colorado when we went for Lisa's wedding to tell everybody there! Parker wore the shirt off the plane but his parents didn't notice it because there was so much excitement going on and Parker wasn't being very friendly! After a long time Jeff finally told his parents to look at the shirt! We told Lisa on the phone and she told us to have Parker wear the shirt to the rehearsal dinner! We got so many comments on the shirt and we were able to get pictures of Mimi's reaction to finding out she was having a 3rd great grandchild and Jeff's Aunt Sharon's reaction also!
