So to start out...when I took the test to find out it was at 3 o'clock in the morning (I had been getting up at that time to go to the bathroom for a week, it was a good hint that I was pregnant). I took the test and was so excited that I couldn't go back to sleep and I wanted to wake up Daniel right away, but I decided to let him sleep since we had church early the next morning. I knew that I wanted to tell him in some cleaver way, so I took one of our picture frames and printed up a paper to put inside that said "Look for baby Lippmann, coming soon to a picture frame near you!" So I put it in the bathroom on the counter top, because that is where he goes as soon as he wakes up, and then I tried to go back to sleep (it didn't work).
When the alarm finally went off to wake Daniel I got so excited, and off course he hit the snooze! So I tried to shake the bed, then elbow him, then shake him!! He was out. Then the Alarm went off again and this time I poked him and told him that he needed to get up, he hit the snooze. The third time the alarm went off he finally got up and as soon as he got to the bedroom door I hopped out of bed and followed him to the bathroom. I watched him a he read the sign I had made, then he turned around with a groggy look on his face and pointed to the frame. That's when i blurted out "I'm pregnant!"
It took him a minute to process what I had said, and then he shuffled over to me and said "Really?!" He had a starry look in his moist eyes and I shook my head yes. It was pretty much the highlight of my first trimester. I know that my husband can be a little blunt at times and some people probably wonder if he has a soft side, well he does. And it's a very squishy soft side. I love the way my husband adores me and our new little one inside.
