How I told Todd...

Thursday September 25th, 2008 around 2:30 pm i got the long awaited call that we were, in fact, pregnant. From that point i spent about a half hour in a total fog and state of shock then realized...CRAP...i only have 2 hours to figure out a really cute way to tell Todd. I spent about an hour trying to figure something out then realized i was too excited to come up with any great plan...so i went to my default. I stopped at the store on the way home, bought a digital test and ran home to take it. Low and behold it came up PREGNANT! so i thought to myself I'll put it on Todd's bathroom sink and leave the light on in the bathroom so when he comes home from work he'll HAVE to go upstairs to the bathroom to see it laying on the sink. He takes forever to get home from work then once he does finally arrive he spends the next 40 minutes outside watering flowers and grass. He KNOWS how to get to me without even trying!!! I finally get him to come inside...he does his normal routine...goes upstairs and i patiently wait with a smile on my face for him to come back down. a few minutes later he comes back downstairs and proceeds to the kitchen for his dinner. I thought to myself 'are you KIDDING ME???'. So i run upstairs because he OBVIOUSLY didn't see the test. i grab the test, bring it back downstairs and set it on the arm of his chair so he CANT avoid it. I walk into the kitchen to get a drink while he goes out to sit down, return to the family room and see him standing over the chair just trying to figure out what's going on. He finally turns around to a happy smiling wife and just looks at me in a state of confusion. He asked me if i was serious because apparently he thinks you can type the word 'pregnant' into those little windows and thought i was just horrible enough to do so. So after he realized it was all for real we just looked at each other, sad down and didn't really say anything. we were both so happy and shocked and excited we weren't sure what to do...after a few minutes went by we got a nice little cozy picture on the chair together with our cute little pee stick, haha....and that's how i told Toddles he was going to be a daddy...
