Me, Him, AND...............

A BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

On Sunday, January 16th Adam and I woke up for church after a long weekend in Idaho.  We had church at 11:00 which is the perfect time in my mind.  We had to drive up to Ashton, Idaho that weekend for Adam's grandma's funeral.  It was a really good time and it was nice to be with family and celebrate her life.  It was also nice for me to meet people from that side of the family I haven't met.  I did, however, get the opportunity to meet Grandma Lords when she came to our wedding and that really meant a lot that she was there when she was so sick, there was no way we were going to miss her funeral! The service was really nice.  All of her kids spoke, including Connie Adam's step mom.  They all did a really good job.  Kevin, Adam's dad, played a piano medley and it was amazing. He is so talented and I love listening to him play.  Grandma's favorite song was "Far Far Away on Judeas Plains" so all of the grandchildren and great grandchildren sang that song.  We had to practice only a couple of times and I think we did a pretty good job, Well, everyone except for me which brings me to the point of posting this... HOLY COW, I usually do a pretty good job at funerals (even those who I am super close to) Not this time... I had only met Grandma Lords once and I could not control myself.  While we were up singing in front of everyone I was a MESS! I have never cried so hard.  I had to literally bury myself in Adam's chest while everyone else was singing so that everyone did not have to see me crying so hard with mascara running down my face!!!  I bring this up because I am never that emotional of a person.  I knew something was up and that was either A. It was my time of month (which seemed even a little much for that) or B. I was pregnant.  I had been a little sick and tired the last couple of weeks so we though maybe that was a possibility so we bought some prego tests before our trip to Idaho and the first one we took was Negative.  We decided to wait till we got back from Idaho because then I would officially be late and it would maybe show up more clear.  That morning when we woke up for church we took two more tests... The result=    
POSITIVE, Both of them!  There is nothing like seeing both of those pink lines show up!  I have always wanted to surprise Adam when it came to this day but he insisted on being there for every test.  He wouldn't even let me look at it without him.  We literally had to walk towards the sticks with our eyes closed, cover it with our hands and then count to 3 and look together.. He is so cute wanting to be involved in it all!  I have never seen Adam more excited (& probably a little scared) then he was that morning.  We had smiles on our faces that entire day but decided that we still weren't going to tell our families until we got our first Ultrasound.  We feel so blessed and we're both so excited for this new adventure and are looking forward to the next 9 months!!!  Baby, Baby oh Baby....
