Daniel and I went to go pick up supper last night and do a few errands. We stopped at Safeway and got a pregnancy test. When we got up to the till, the cashier scanned it through and scanned my cards. We then had this unlikely conversation:
Her: So, Mr. McInnis, does your wife know you are buying this for her?
Me: Umm... yeah (not really wanting to talk about this with a stranger)
Her: Is it... good news?
Me: Oh, yeah, it's good.
Her: That's excellent. I have 4 myself
Me: Well, I have 2 under 3 right now and this will be the third.
Her: (smiling widely) That's awesome. Good for you Mr. McInnis. Keep it up. Bye.
I can't imagine that situation coming up in the Safeway cashier training sessions.
Anyway, Amber got to pee on a stick this morning and as you have probably deduced from the title of this section, there were 2 lines. We're on our way to the perfect family - three boys. :)
I am excited about this, but it means that I have less than 9 months to find a van. We have been driving a little 2-door hatchback since before Amber got pregnant the first time. It's been tight with two carseats, but there are only 4 seatbelts, so we can't put it off much longer.
I know that's probably not the emotional outlet and expression of my feelings that it should be, but I'm not real good with sharing personal stuff. I'd rather talk about anything else - might be a guy thing. Maybe this blog will help me with that.
But I have to end with a happy face. I am more than okay with this slightly unexpected turn of events. I look forward to going on this journey again. :)
