We're Pregnant!

We found we were pregnant with our first little one in May 2007. It was Memorial Day and I was home alone. Shaun had to work and I happened to get the holiday off. I decided to run some everyday errands since I was home alone. For some reason I decided to buy a pregnancy test while in the store and took it when I got home. To my surprise it was positive. I remember standing in the bathroom and looking at myself in the mirror as I jumped up and down with excitement. Then I quickly stopped jumping not knowing if I would hurt the baby. How funny! I wanted to do something special to tell Shaun but I just couldn't wait until he was off so I went back to the store, lol, and bought a father's day card. It just happened to be that time of year. I placed the test inside and drove from Monroe to Bastrop to his job. I called when I got there and he came out to meet me. When he opened the card, he was really confused at first with it saying happy fathers day, but when he opened it, his face lit up. It was one of the biggest smiles I think I've ever seen him have. He couldn't believe it. I remember him asking if I was serious. Ha, no I was just playing, yeah right. Anyway, we did the same thing to break the news to his parents and to my mom. I had to tell her over the phone however and give her her card later. They were all plesantly surprised and so happy for us. Little Coleman #1 is on the way!
