And the result is......

POSITIVE!!!!
Ben and I are excited to announce that we are having a baby!!  I took my bloodtest the morning of November 10th and received a phone call from the nurse at about 4:40PM.  I couldn't wait to get home to tell Ben so I called and when he answered I said, "Hi Daddy!!!"  He was very excited to hear the news. 

I rushed home because I had a hair appointment so I went home to get Ben and he was going to drop me off and run some errands and then we were going to dinner to celebrate.  On our way to our appointment we called Ben's best friend, Greg and told him.  It was a great day to tell him, it was his birthday.  It was also my brother's 40th birthday, but I wanted to make sure I told him in person and it was special.  We went to BJ's Brewhouse so Ben could have a beer and I could have water. :)  While we were there celebrating, we were trying to figure out how and when we were going to tell our family and friends.  My dad had a meeting that night and was supposed to be home around 9:30 and my mom went out for drinks with a girlfriend and would be home about the same time.  So we went to Buy Buy Baby and got a bib and a onesie and went home and ironed on letters that said I Love Mimi and I Love Dado and then took them over to them that night to tell them.  It was difficult though because we had to make up a story as to why we were coming over at 9:30 at night, so we told them that Ben needed to talk to my dad about some union stuff regarding work.  The D's are backwards because we messed up when we ironed on the letters.  Friday night we were able to tell some of our best friends and then Saturday after my nephew's game I gave my brother a picture frame with a picture of a bun in an oven in the frame.  He and my sister-in-law were so excited!  Sunday afternoon we were finally able to get over to Ben's parents to tell them.  We got them a picture frame that said Grandkids on it and had a place for 2 photos.  In the top we put a picture of our niece and nephews, and then in the bottom we put the same bun picture in there.  They absolutely loved it and Ben's mom jumped out of the recliner she was so excited!
