And then there were 3...

It didn't take long. In fact, it happened so soon that it caught both of us by surprise. We had always planned on starting our "trying" adventure in September of 2009. Little did we know that just a few short weeks later, we would be handed the best news of our lives. It was late on a Thursday night. I must have stared at the unopened package for the entire evening. It seemed like I had one eye on it no matter where I was in the house. I was beyond anxious, as I knew Gabe was. When he finally got home, a little after 11, I ran into the bathroom, did my business, and then we waited...for what seemed like an eternity. When the 3 minutes was up...so was our patience. Gabe calmy walked into the kitchen and grabbed "the stick". I, not feeling well [and in hindsight know why], was laying on the couch. When he brought it in, he had it covered with his hand. He knelt down next to me and said "Are you ready"? and slowly moved his hand. Sure enough...there were the 2 pink lines!!! For a good minute, I couldn't breathe. I rode a wave of emotions; happy, scared, nervous, anxious, excited. In a matter of 3 minutes, the 2 became 3 to be!!!! And so this journey begins.
