:D

This time the maybe was a YES! I was originally going to wait until Monday to take a pregnancy test, but James convinced me by pointing out that waiting two more days would just increase his hopefulness, and if it was negative he would have the weekend to get over it.

I was supposed to take a dinner trip to Chuy's Mexican restaurant in Murfreesboro at 6:00 on Saturday, but none of the 16 kids who signed up for the trip actually wanted to go. Since by the time I found that out they had stopped serving dinner, James watched the dorm while I ran to Taco Bell to get dinner. YUM! Right before I left he hinted that it would be nice to pick up something at the store....so I stopped by Walgreens and bought a digital test. It's a little uncomfortable having to check out with a pregnancy test, and I felt like telling the checkout guy, "Don't worry, I want to be pregnant, and I am financially able to support a child." But I made it through the checkout, only to have the security alarm go off as I left, so I got to show another cashier my purchase.

I came home, ate a burrito and nachos, and then went to the bathroom. The test was supposed to take 3 minutes to give a response, but we had a "Pregnant" answer in about a minute. I tried to walk in with a blank expression on my face and just thrust the stick in James's face. He only had a lamp on in the living room, so it took him awhile to be able to read the results, but once he did he jumped up from the couch and was SO excited. He called his parents and sisters, and I called my parents to let them know the early good news. We also called our siblings and closest friends, and we'll try to keep it on the lowdown until we pass the 12 week mark. But we are SO happy and are praying that all goes well so that we will have a new little Garcia come June.
