Back in June
We had a little bit of a busy month
but it was good
we got great news
and shared that great news with our immediate family
so lets back track
On June 11th after Nathan kissed me goodbye and left for work
and I eventually got out of bed
and started to get ready for the day
a thought came in my head
if I was to take a pregnancy test today, it would be pretty accurate
so I pulled out the the cheap test
and a few minutes later I was looking at two pink lines
thinking there have never been two lines before
is this for real
I thought about planing a cute way to tell Nathan
but then decided to call him
because I was still in disbelief
so after a conversation that went something like this
c: don't be mad but I remembered that today's the day we could find out if I am pregnant.
n: you took a pregnancy test without me
c: I know i am sorry
n: was it negative
It was natural for us to assume it was negative
over the past year I have probably taken about 15 or so test
at first we didn't believe the negative
because I was irregular
like one month 29 day the next 40
So i would sometimes take 2 test in 1 month
c:actually i think it's positive
n: really?
c: yeah there are 2 lines and there has never been 2 lines before
n:send me a picture
send picture
n:Wife are you pregnant?
c: I don't know, but it sure looks like it
Over the next couple of days I took 2 more pregnancy tests and they were both positive
since Nathan and I are terrible at keeping good news a secret,
we told our parents that weekend
we thought about waiting
but the timing was perfect
On Saturday, June 16th we told Nathans parents at the San Diego Wild Safari Park
they hesitated before believing us
We video taped their reactions and eventually I will put it it up on here
its funny to watch
Sunday, June 17th, which was fathers day
we told my parents
they didn't believe us either
after some convincing that I was pregnant they were happy for us
We told my 86 year old grandma who suffers from Alzheimer
"Shame on you" was her response
I think she thought it was the 40s or something and I was an unmarried girl
it was pretty funny
each time we visit we tell her I am pregnant and get a whole new reaction
it's kinda funny
Monday June 18th was my last In-N-Out picnic
It was at a new location the Santa Anita Race Track
and featured carnival games and rides
it was ok
the food was the best part
the food was the best part
past years were better
so we left early
Wednesday June 20th was my Birthday
24 sounds old
I celebrated with a facial
love notes from husband
love notes from husband
Indian food for lunch
some pool time
and Benihana's for dinner
Husband surprised me with a gym membership
(gotta get in shape/ healthy for baby)
and a dress from anthro that I used to have but ripped
Saturday June 23rd, We met our friends Randy and Ashley for Breakfast
at the always delicious Honeys in Encinitas
followed by some beach action
sunburns and frostys
We ended the night with the Jack Goldstein opening at OCMA
It was fun and sad to say goodbye to all of the interns and managers
Friday June 29th we drove up to LA and spend the night at Erik and Jay's new apartment
Saturday morning we visited The Getty
I told Erik and Jay that I was pregnant
they didn't believe me either
the video we have of them is also pretty funny
half way through Erik turns to me
"wait you really are pregnant?"
It was a fun day filled with art
yummy burger at The Counter
a nap
(I am pregnant)
pool time
and Photography
We went to this cool exhibit on Rock and Roll photography
It was pretty awesome
we got kisses from Asia the seal
went in the Elephant compound and saw some of their training techniques
We feed Rhonda the Rhino
And a giraffe
We even got up close with some tigers
and a snow leopard
When we first went to the holding area the male tiger was chuffing (I have not clue if I spelled that right)
My sister Kaylee was too scared to go in because of the loud noise the tiger was making
they brought in the tiger cubs and mama to say hello to daddy tiger
before letting the male tiger out on the exhibit
The baby tigers were about a year old
and were pretty big
it was fun to see them play with each other and their mama
they would get up on their hind legs and press against the cage to get a better look of our group
it was so tempting to stick my finger in the cage and try to pet one of the tigers
but I figure I would rather have a finger than try to pet a baby tiger
the Snow leopard we saw was such a sweetheart
You could really tell that the the keeper and Asia the snow leopard had a good relationship
We also got to scratch some warty pigs
and see some tiny moneys
overall it was one of the best trips to the zoo
A big thank you to Kris and her fellow zoo keepers for such an amazing experience
