October 21, 2013

 
It's been a long time since I've posted anything. Since my last post Benjamin and I drove down to Alabama. :) Can I just say that was a blast traveling with your best friend for almost a week. We learned a lot about each other that week. Haha. We made it to my parents house around 2 or 3 in the morning. We were so tired we crashed without getting anything in the car.
 
Since we've been here Benjamin was able to get a job working at Bowers Plumbing. :) We wouldn't have been able to without my wonderful cousin Mark. He helped us out tremendously. Thanks Mark!! BTW, It was great seeing you and your little ones. They are very adorable.
 
I have had trouble getting a job. No one was hiring and if they were no one would contact me back. After a while my sister, Ashley, helped me get a job on the Arsenal working at the PX Center. I am a beauty consultant for Clinique. :) I officially haven't started working yet. There was a lot of paper work I had to do first. I should start next week.

Benjamin and I decided a week before Valentines Day that I should take a pregnancy test. :) Exciting right? So two days before Valentines Day I was playing the piano and I got the feeling to ask Benjamin after work if we could take one that night. I went to go pick him up from work and I looked at him before we drove off and I said, "Would you pray about something for me?" He smiled his big grin and said, "Yes, what would you like me to pray about?" I quickly grinned back and asked if he would pray about taking a pregnancy test that night. Before I even finished asking what I wanted him to pray about he busted out laughing. Still smiling I asked him what was so funny. He just stated that he was going to ask me the same thing but I started talking first when he got in the car. :)

So we hurried and went to a store got 3 pregnancy tests and hurried home. I took one test and it showed negative. I was so disappointed.... I got the feeling to take one and I assumed it would be positive. I showed Benjamin and he just hugged me. I felt tired so I took a nap. I believe Benjamin woke me up and it was almost 9:30pm. He then told me all excited that we didn't take an early pregnancy test....I thought about it and he was right. We didn't. We both got dressed and went to Wal-mart on a mission. I was still very tired and the lines were horrible. After we bought the tests Benjamin was so excited. He bought me a small frosty at Wendys so I'd be able to use the restroom. Haha :)

Now, knowing my first test was negative, I really didn't want to get myself worked up over it. So I took the test and I just left it sitting in the box it came from and talked to Benjamin for a good 10-15 mins. about what movie we were going to put on. I got up to turn the lights off and I remembered I took the test. I pulled it out of the box and the 2 little pink lines were there....I couldn't believe it. I turned around went over to Benjamin and kissed him. He had to pull my face away to ask me if it was positive. Let me just say that Benjamin's eyes were massive and his whole body began to shake with excitement Haha. We both are excited. :)

My first appointment is at the beginning of March. My due date is est. to be October 21st. My family believes that I will have a boy. Benjamin believes that we will have twins. A boy and a girl. :) Either way we are very happy and very blessed.
