I am so proud of my husband! He was actually capable of keeping a secret. Usually when something happens to him or us he will call everyone in his phone book and tell them. The ones who don't answer he will leave them a text. By the end of the night everyone knows and now it is onto telling complete strangers. Like they care.... but they WILL know.
Well my husband and I both kept this secret from March 29th til May 23rd of 2009. Only 2 people were told before the end date and they were Devon and Robert.
It was totally my decision to keep everyone out of the loop. It drove Jerry crazy. He didn't see the reason why I would want it all to be kept quiet.The was only one really good reason MY MOM AND DAD!
On May 23rd at 6:00 we were eating at the Golden Corral. It was my mom and Dad. Cesar, Casey and their 2 out of 3 kids. Amanda and her two kids. Christa, Brittany and Nana. Kathy and Bill (their two kids did not come). Keith, Cameron, and Sasha. Devon and Robert with no kid, and then hubby and I. I had reserved 30 seats. I filled 21 of them. Some just out right refused to come. Those who did not come were sent cards in the mail.
It was Christas 19th birthday. When I had planned this dinner I completely spaced it was her birthday. I had scheduled it as a perfect time for when my mother was here. So I made sure the restaurant embarrassed the crap out of her. Every waitress and waiter in the building was singing, clapping and screaming who was being celebrated.
At 6:15pm our waitress came back in with another embarrassment. She was alone this time. She announced
My mother screamed to the top of her lungs. I was already crying. My brother
flew around the table and hugged me.I have been trying for 11 years. Every group got this
. So did the people who were not able to make it to the dinner. I mailed it to them. I have heard from all except for my grandparents and my middle brother. I am hoping they at least say something.I found out after the meal that people were pissed off at me for making the announcement on that day. They were upset that I ruined Christas 19th birthday celebration. Christa didn't even speak to me the next day when we took her to a friends house to go swimming.
Jerry found out March 29th like this
I took the exact same tests the next day. Same results. Devon and Robert found out the 29th also. On April first I went in to have blood work done. They attempted to hand me a cup but I told them I had already pissed on 4 I wanted blood. It took them til April 3rd to give me my results. The nurse said "you are very pregnant". What the heck does that mean? Am I having twins? I didn't ask that I was t0o excited.
I immediately went out and bought myself a
to keep track of the adventures of pregnancy. I am not doing a very good job at keeping it updated. I am putting some very interesting stories in it though. 
On May first the baby got its first picture taken
. I wanted to be the first one to take its picture.My first mothers day was not as exciting as I was expecting it to be. Devon had told me that her in the womb mothers day was awesome. So that is what I was expecting too. Jerry bought me an Indiana Jones Card that plays the theme music when you open it. But it was a birthday card. He had scratched out the words birthday and put mothers day. Honestly I disliked it. To me it showed no thought or pleasure of the day. After awhile I started to like it until I found out that my best friend Devon had gotten the same card. Now I am upset again because I am unsure of whoes idea it was to make a birthday card a mothers day card. Because of this it stewed a HUGE arguement.
The next day Devon had wrapped up a gift for baby and I
she had gotten me 3 movies and a mothers day card. 
Two of the movies are real oldies from even before my time. But that is what I want the baby to be brought up on. The classics. She also provided me with the babies first hat and socks.
My mother has already contributed to the clothes. She bought this
She almost bought the crib and stroller too..... thankfully no means no. I am not ready for those items yet.But the room looks awesome... it needs a few touches but as far as books movies and stuffed animals go this kid will have the hook up.
My husband is scared shitless. Terrified. Petrified.
