Below I have my positive pregnancy test. Is it bad that I can't throw them away (I have 2)? Cochran thinks it is. I have them sealed in a plastic zip lock bag. I was just so excited when I saw that + sign. You get so many negatives so that positive is a miracle and literally changes your life.
The story I have to share is that in September 2010 is when we decided that we would no longer take precautions to not get pregnant. Of course that month for some reason I didn't have my period. I took tests-NEGATIVE. I did research and it said sometimes the tests aren't 100% accurate so it's a good idea to go to a doctor to take a pregnancy urine test. I went into a walk in clinic one day during lunch because I couldn't stand the wait. So typical me. I took another test there and waited for the doctor. The doctor entered the room. He was Asian and I point that out because when you read this you have to do it with an accent. Think Mr. Chow on the Hangover if you've seen it. It was too funny. He said to me, "You take pregnancy test at home. It say you not pregnant. You come here and I tell you you not pregnant. Yet you still ask if you pregnant. You go home. Try for a year. If you not pregnant in year come back." At that I remarked "I would have preferred to speak with a female doctor." Females are more sensitive to the emotional side of other women. He snapped "I doctor. I professssiiioooonnnaal." Haha! To say the least I haven't walked back in that clinic.
When we knew we were pregnant but still hadn't announced it yet and obviously didn't know I was carrying two we called the baby "Peanut." One morning Cochran made me pancakes. He surprised me & said he made Peanut one too. Peanut's was on top.
People often ask if I've had cravings. The only time that both of us recall a genuine craving is one night I had to have chocolate chip cookies. I was in tears for chocolate chip cookies. Cochran finally went to our little market on site and was able to get a package of four. I told him we had to heat them in the microwave so they were soft. Below are the cookies with an "I love you" message he prepared. I love you too babe! Thanks for saving my life with the cookies. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have survived if I didn't eat them.
Our good friends Matt & Ashley Anderson surprised us with insight of what our twins could possibly look like. I still can't look at this and not laugh!
MeMe purchased a LIFESAVOR for me...my pregnancy pillow; however Scooter is trying to make me practice what I preach..."Sharing is caring." He LOVES my pillow and every night tries to get to it first. Let's just say it's mmmyyyyy pillow! LOL!
Scooter's BFF Hemi stayed with us one weekend. Cochran & I were in the boy's nursery when the dogs jumped into his lap. Cochran got some practice in with holding two at a time. He looks like a natural but obviously we are going to have our hands full. You can tell by this picture how spoiled Scooter is-Rotten!
One day at work I told the girls that the people who clean out our individual trash cans every night probably think "Man, this lady is BIG HUNGRY."
Desiree wrote this letter and attached it to my trash can:
Final straw before purchasing maternity pants...
The shirt explains why she is MeMe...
Heather shared this picture. Too funny.
Pop already bought the boys a pony named Lucy. Then he realized there's a few years before they could actually ride her so Lucy has been sold.
I still think it's too cute and sweet that he did that. They are certain to be well rounded-beach bums, country boys, and little athletes :)
For some reason I like to remix random songs.
One morning I started remixing "Baby Got Back" while Cochran & I was getting ready for work. I began, "I like big bellies and I can not lie. You other brothers can't deny. When a girl walks in with a big ole belly."
