Awesome Weekend

Greg and I went out of town to visit friends this weekend. We had a great time - the weather was beautiful, we ate a ton of good food, (Remember that weight loss I mentioned? Yeah, I made up for that), and we had so much fun hanging out with friends we've really missed.

The coolest part of the weekend was Friday night. These friends have been struggling with IF, and Greg and I had been looking forward to talking to another couple dealing with the same emotions we were. But, then we got PG, and we weren't sure how to handle the situation - should we tell them? How should we tell them? I thought about sending an email beforehand, because that's how I like to find out about other people being PG, (so I can cry if I need to), but, I thought that was also really awkward: "Hey guys. Looking forward to seeing you this weekend. I just wanted to let you know I'm pregnant. Bye!" So, we decided not to say anything, considering it's so early and we haven't told a lot of people yet anyway.

Anyway, on Friday night, my friend and I were talking about our IF struggles, and how much it sucks. Then she asked, "What are you guys going to do next?" And I kind of stuttered and said, "we're not sure " (which is not a lie - we still aren't out of the danger zone, and, if anything goes wrong with this baby, we don't know what our next step will be). A little later, she said, "Sooooo....there's something I feel like I need to tell you....I got a positive pregnancy test yesterday."

I had to restrain myself from squealing and disturbing everyone at the restaurant, so I just clapped my hands excitedly and said, "That's awesome! We got one last week!" So, then we started talking about how we are really nervous, worrying about every little thing, and trying not to get too excited.

How freaking awesome is that?
