Growing and growing...

Every week, I look forward to the email that tells me how big baby is and what is happening as far as development, but I have to say that I thought the peach from last week was much bigger than this lemon!!!! At least in my mind it was!!!!! I'm definitely not complaining though, I feel great!!!! I have gotten some energy back but the tachycardia is starting to get a bit harder to control, but thankfully we see the cardiologist in a few weeks. My belly is definitely getting bigger (I think!) and itching at times so I've started to apply that Cocoa Butter to avoid stretch marks (fingers crossed). No more nausea, no more heartburn, occasional dizziness but I think it comes with the territory! 

This week the baby is sucking its thumb and wiggling its toes! Kidneys are making urine and liver and spleen are working full speed! Baby is also growing lanugo, which is peach-fuzz-like hair to keep him/her warm!!!  

Baby Bump's First Christmas!

A peach....I just cant believe it!!! We have made it to the last week of the first trimester!!! The baby is forming vocal cords in preparation for those giggles and pitiful cries, teeth for those upcoming sleepless nights and high fevers, and amazingly enough, the baby now has fingerprints!!

I've been looking forward to this week almost from the very beginning! I just knew that the baby would be this big (or small) during Christmas and I knew our families would make the baby a part of the celebrations...My mom definitely included "Baby" in her stockings this year!!! So cute!! The week started with the family going to celebrate Christmas with abuelita at her home, with a wonderful dinner and a live band made of a group of volunteers. My mom and Tato made it worth it!! They danced the evening away doing salsa and merengue moves to Christmas carols...hilarious!!! but people were cheering them on and clapping as if they were part of the show!!! Everything was beautiful and very festive and I think Abuelita had a blast!!! 

The rest of the week was extremely busy!! We decorated our cupcakes with Christmas sprinkles  all week and people loved them!!! Because of that, we got a ton of orders! Needless to say, Christmas shopping was left for LAST (and I mean LAST) minute!!!! On the night of the 23rd, I was running around town with my mom and aunts looking for our last minute gifts and of course traffic was insane and the mall was madness!!! The best surprise was for Isa, Shawn and the girls coming down from Memphis to spend the holidays with all of us!!! I still can't believe how BIG Sophia has gotten!!!!

Craig worked for 36 hours straight at the fire department and then another 8 hours the night of  Christmas Eve so he didn't get to spend it with us. I spent the evening at the Doreste's house surrounded by family and friends having a delicious dinner and opening gifts from under the imaginary tree (there was no tree, so we had the gifts sitting on the floor in a corner of the living room!) For dinner, Uncle Mario made black beans, pork, rice and my mom and Negra fried yuca...sooooo good!!!!!! The kids had a blast!...actually we all did!!! I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful family, everyone thought of the baby and he/she even got some gifts!!!! Right away I took pictures and sent them to Craig (who was at the hospital working) to make him feel included and to feel as excited about it as I was :) 

Loving our new owl!!

Wooohooo!!! Big box of wipes!!!!

My mom made this shirt for me!!! Best gift EVER!!!

...then it was Christmas morning and it was truly a beautiful day. Starting with the weather, it was sunny and low 60s as we headed to Craig's parents at about 830am. We always do Christmas breakfast with them and Craig's brother and wife and then my in-laws and us head to my parents for brunch!! 

The day went great and we were showered with gifts for ourselves as well as more toys and diapers for baby. It is amazing to imagine that this time next year, we will have a 6 month old enjoying the holidays and having fun with Christmas lights and sitting on Santa's lap.....I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#1 Done!!!

I'm a few days late posting this entry because for almost 1 week I've been fighting a terrible cold!!!! This past Monday, baby and I made it through a HUGE milestone (Craig also, of course, putting up with our pregnancy craziness), we are done with our first trimester and looking forward to the next 2.

This cold has definitely slowed us down a little....it started with a dry cough that turned into what truly felt like my lungs bursting, body aches, fever, chills and a bit of a bad mood!!! I called my OB to find out what I could take (as my nursing knowledge has clearly vanished!!), and after getting the do's and don'ts from the nurse, my mom went out and got me Tylenol Cold Syrup. I took it as directed for a whole day before I came to the conclusion that it wasn't working AT ALL!!!! The following day, I rested all day in between cough spells. The following day, after not seeing any improvement, Craig insisted on going to the ER for a quick Xray, antibiotics and a "work note" (just kidding!). We mainly wanted to make sure that it wasn't bronchitis, pneumonia or the flu that could hurt the baby, so we waited patiently for our doctor and nurse. Got settled in our room and after letting Chris (our nurse) know about our pregnancy, she ran out and grabbed the doppler. "We are finally going to hear the baby's heart beat!!" I thought as I coughed!...and there it was, the most beautiful sound in the world, boom boom boom at 155 beats per minute! Craig's eyes filled with tears as he leaned down to kiss me. It was the highlight of the sickness and it made all the body aches and sleepless nights worthwhile.  Our doctor decided that he wasn't going to do xrays, or give out antibiotics but he was going to try 2 saline breathing treatments to loosen up the junk in my lungs.  After a couple of hours and no relief, he called the OB. Unfortunately they suggested narcotics (which I refused), steroids (which given my history with them, I refused), and a Lidocaine breathing treatment, which I gladly accepted when I figured it would at least numb my throat which was burning like crazy from the constant cough!!! The relief lasted only a few minutes and we were discharged from the hospital with a Vicodin script and orders to rest and drink fluids.  The next couple of days thats exactly what I did, as my mom worked at the shop, and finally tonight I see the light at the end of this mucous-filled tunnel. Im not coughing as often as I was, although it continues to be nasty, temp seems to be running normal to low grade and my whole body still hurts but I like to think I'm improving :) Tomorrow will be another day and we shall see.....

As for the baby, things are changing fast!!! Baby is almost done developing important systems and body parts, which means, it's mostly about getting bigger and more mature from here on out. Baby's brain is developing fast, developing reflexes, and now baby is opening and closing fingers and curling toes!!!

Stay tuned for an updated baby bump picture.....

Love At First Sight

December 6th, a day that I will never forget! 6 weeks ago, Craig and I started a countdown to the day when we would see our baby on the screen for the first time, and honestly today couldn't get here fast enough!!! I woke up this morning and went to the shop. I spent a couple of hours making cupcakes and decorating them until Craig got there to pick me up.  I think we were both a little anxious heading to the doctor's office but our excitement was definitely palpable. While waiting in the waiting room, I couldn't help but look around at all these pregnant women with their big bellies and think about my little bump that right now looks more like a beer gut than anything else!!! I kept thinking will this baby be a boy or a girl???. 

A lady sitting across the room from us was almost 9 months pregnant, mentioned she couldn't wait to have this "9lb. baby" and at the same time, was taking care of her other son, 14 month old Elijah. This little boy was amazing!, he was so funny, so sweet and had the most beautiful blue eyes. He kept walking towards us, putting his arms out, always smiling, and even wanted to share his Oreo with us. Craig's eyes lit up just watching this little boy and my heart  smiled at the thought of us becoming parents soon! 

Baby Pitt is the size of a lime already! Almost 2 inches long and looking more and more like a baby everyday! Tooth buds, hair follicles and nail beds continue forming! Skin is still pretty translucent but the baby is swimming gracefully even though is a bit too early for me to feel it yet!                                                        We went into the room and the nurse instructed us to take relax and enjoy the view....and what a view!!! Definitely love at first sight. Our baby looked beautiful. The nurse started clicking her machine and saving pictures for us to bring home. She caught a good picture of the arm and the leg (soccer leg, of course!) and my favorite picture of our baby almost sucking its thumb! "Everything looks great!" the nurse said with a big smile and then Anna, the nurse practitioner, reassured us.  The only change is that I need to "Eat More!!!" she said because I have barely gained a pound!! Now, we will have fun sharing these pictures and start a countdown to our ultrasound on January 31st, when we will learn the sex of the baby!!!!!!

1/4 Down, 3/4 To Go!!!

So pregnancy is about (give or take) 40 weeks and by us celebrating 10 weeks down, I can't help but think that we are already done with 1/4 of it and it has truly been an amazing ride!!! Time is flying....I think about the time when I took that first pee test and our first doctor's appointment and I couldn't imagine waiting 6 weeks to see our baby for the first time in the ultrasound and now we are only a week away!!! I know the baby will be here before we know it and we can't wait!!! Craig and I are having a blast picking our favorite names, thinking of our nursery theme and looking at baby things online.

As far as pregnancy symptoms, I'm struggling a little with this heartburn and slight nausea! I've tried Tums, and for the last week or so I've taken Zantac and its just not doing the trick! Another very strange but I guess expected symptom (according to the books) has been vivid, weird, crazy dreams, and not always happy dreams but sometimes nightmares that have woken me up crying inconsolably for hours.  I've asked a couple of friends about strange symptoms they had while pregnant and the most common answer I've gotten has been "everything abnormal is normal during pregnancy!", which I guess that takes a bit of the anxiety away...

Our little prune is growing and growing and growing and now has working arm joints and cartilage and bones are forming!, amazingly, vital organs are fully developed and starting to function. This week, baby Pitt is growing fingernails and hair is starting to appear and baby is even swallowing and kicking in there!!!!!! WOW....I'm speechless!

TUMS....My new BFF

Proud to say that we have made it yet another week and Baby Pitt is growing like crazy!!!! This week, baby is the size of a delicious green olive and I like to think is one of the big, cocktail olives because the box of raspberries that I had last week looked bigger than this picture!!! This week, the baby is developing more distinct facial features which makes me think....what is this baby going to look like??

Things are going great!!, Im still pretty tired most of time but thankful that my mom and aunt are working so hard at the shop that I can take quick naps almost every day!! However, the heartburn has gotten a bit worse and now I carry with me a big box of Tums in my purse that make noise everywhere I go!!!!  I read that the hormones responsible for heartburn are the same ones that are responsible for putting hair in the baby's head, so Im thinking that this baby is going to have a FULL set of hair when he/she is born!!!! No real cravings, no real sickness, just enjoying every second of this beautiful and amazing journey.  

We saw the cardiologist this week and he was happy with the dosage of the heart medicine and didn't change anything for now.  He did tell me that as I get bigger, the dose will probably have to increase but assured us again that the baby would not be affected by the change. He will see us again in 2 months.

Thanksgiving was, as always, a wonderful holiday. We gathered with family and thank God for our blessings, especially the one that we hope will make its debut sometime in June!! Food was delicious, baby and I both agreed, and just being able to spend time with Daddy, both sets of grandparents, other family and friends was wonderful. Biggest and best surprise of all was being able to Skype with my cousin Monica (more like my little sister) who is in Argentina living for a year as an exchange student!!! 

Friday was also amazing!, Abuelita turned 84 years old and we were all together to celebrate it!!! She had the biggest smile I have ever seen!!! She looked radiant!!!

"Lub-Dub"

I remember in nursing school, I was taught that the sounds the heart makes are "lub" and "dub" and that was the S1 and S2 or first and second noises generated by the beating heart as the blood travels through it.  I also learned the movement of the ventricles as the blood entered one and travelled to the next, and as fascinating as that was at the time, today I saw it for the first time in our unborn child.

Not actual, but very similar!!

I didn't get much sleep last night thinking about today. I got to the shop early and as I worked sending emails and decorating cupcakes, it was finally time to go see the doctor. We were told today's appointment would be to just to go over test results, but deep down I hoped that the nurse practitioner would want to take a quick look!.....to my surprise, she did!!! first thing she said when she came in was "let's take a look", so I quickly laid down and as she put that warm gel and started searching for our tiny raspberry, I closed my eyes, said a quick prayer and held my breath until she sighed and said "there it is!, there is your baby's heart rate going at about 300 beats per minute at this time...isn't that amazing????" I turned my head and there is was, a really tiny flickering on the screen....the most beautiful thing I have ever seen....

She froze the picture on the screen only for a few seconds, but it was long enough for both Craig and I to take a good mental picture, smile so big to the point of almost crying and ask her if there was any chance she was looking at 2!!!! She smiled and said "I definitely see 1, so I think there's only 1 in there!!!" We again smiled, this time with some relief. The appointment went on and we went over the test results. "Everything looks great" she said as she read down the numbers on her screen, but when we got to my vitamin D, she paused. "It is way too low Paula", I couldn't believe it, again? really? so needless to say, Im back on more pills!. Before leaving the appointment, I got my flu shot and had to have some more blood work done because apparently my thyroid was elevated in 2010 and no doctor ever told us!!! We should have those results by next week.... now let the countdown begin for 3 more weeks before our official ultrasound and the very first real picture of our Baby Pitt....for now, here is the baby bump, 8 weeks down, 30+ to go :) and loving every second of it!!!!

My Favorite Fruit!!!!

We have reached another milestone! Today we are officially 8 weeks pregnant and our baby Pitt is the size of a delicious, beautiful raspberry!!!! And to celebrate, my sweet husband made us dinner and surprised me with beautiful roses!! According to my weekly emails, hormones at this point are not only heightening my senses but also making me have some crazy dreams!!!....and last night was definitely my first! I was in the dream with people I havent seen in years, Craig wasn't there :( and there was a tsunami happening!!! I was with these friends in the 18th floor of an apartment building, watching everything go under water below us, then a HUGE wave came towards our windows so we ran to the next room and BOOM I woke up because I had to pee!!!! Wwwweeeiiiirrrdddddd!!!!!

100,001 baby names book

As my senses are in overdrive, apparently our baby's sense of taste is starting!!! The baby is developing taste buds and growing about a millimeter a day!! What an amazing miracle! We are still in la-la land! We are having so much fun looking at stuff online and thinking of names...we havent bought anything yet so Im pretty proud of myself, although I did see these two adorable owls that made me think of an owl-themed nursery (and my mom ended up buying them for us!!....I mean for the baby!!!!!) ...and ever since "Owls" are on my mind and everywhere around me!!!!.....is that a sign?

We can hardly wait to see the baby for the first time and have a countdown going (3 more weeks until that first ultrasound!!), although we do go back to the doctor this wednesday to discuss test results! I think I can speak for both of us when I say that it makes us a little anxious because in the first appointment they asked if we wanted to be tested for some genetic disorders and we didn't know exactly what to say so we went with the recommendation of "yes" so we'll see......

It's crazy to think that I can already see what this unconditional love is all about....I became a mommy the second I saw those 2 lines....Im already so in love with our child and feel like I love Craig so much more for being the daddy!

Blueberry Love

Life could not be much better than this!! Our little baby Pitt has grown to the size of a blueberry!!!! Of course today when I went to the super market, I stopped at the produce section and stared at a box of blueberries and smiled....Im sure people were wondering what was going through my mind!!!!
Already doubled in size since last week!!! Baby's brain is developing and generating 100 brain cells every minute, also the heart is more complex and even has a permanent set of kidneys now :)
I'm feeling great! I do get occasional heartburn, Im peeing A LOT, exhausted and every once in a while I feel a little nausea but not enough to get sick! I keep thinking that we have 9 more days until we go back to the doctor's for test results and I hope we can take a sneak peek at our little one!!!! Stay Tuned.....

Our Little Sweet Pea!!

6 Weeks down and 30+ to go!!!!.....and thankfully feeling great! Other than feeling extremely tired most of the time and also a bit bloated, this journey has been amazing!! No cravings, but really thirsty all the time!
According to all my readings, the baby is growing and growing fast!! Starting to sprout eyes, ears, nose, cheeks, and chin! Even the tongue and vocal cords are starting to form!!! and even the heart is already beating about twice as fast as mine!!!! Im already thinking about the future, wanting to plan the nursery, go shopping, share the news with the world and even see the belly grow!!! Im trying really hard to take it one day at a time, but I got baby-on-my-mind ALL THE TIME and window shopping or internet browsing doesn't hurt anyone, right??

Can we say "HORMONES"???

So the last couple of days, I've tried to keep my mind busy, exercising (walking) as much as possible, eating healthy, no caffeine although sometimes 1 cup of coffee a day and things are truly going great! Knock on wood, no morning sickness, no mood swings, no cravings, no different than 3 months ago when I wasn't pregnant!! However, multiple times in the past few days, I've heard songs like "Anything like me" by Brad Paisley and "My little girl" by Tim McGraw and I've cried every time!!!. These songs are about having a child and how fast they grow.  Lines like "I started wondering who he was going to be, Heaven help us if he's anything like me" or "I remember you looked like an angel, wrapped in pink so soft and warm, you've had me wrapped around your finger since the day you were born" made me think of how amazing this journey is truly going to be. Every day I thank God for giving us the chance to be the best parents we can be and to learn what unconditional love is all about.

My cousin Eduardo and his fiance Mira have been staying with us for a few days. Every time they are in town, I feel like I learn something new. Last time (a few months ago) I learned to meditate, and do so every once in a while, and also using Sage to cleanse the house and feel more at harmony with earth, which I also have done a few times! This time, Mira showed me something amazing and incredible and even much more logical now that Im pregnant.....Juicing!! She goes grocery shopping then comes home and makes herself a juice almost daily full of vitamins and minerals. My first experience was during her birthday celebration here at our house this past thursday. While the family was drinking wine and beer, she made me a green "thing". I happily drank it, thinking of all the good nutrients I was passing on to "little Pitt".  Yummy to the blend of cucumbers, celery, green apple, ginger, kale, pear, and romaine lettuce!!!

The next day, I woke up early to go to the shop and drank another glass of this juice. It made me feel great all day, energized, focused and just plain happy! With little to no time to decorate the house for halloween this year, Craig asked me to please buy a pumpkin to put on our front steps, and I figured I would surprise him with "our little family" of pumpkins. I went to the pumpkin patch near our house and picked out one big, one medium and one small and put them on the steps so he could see them when he came home.

It's Official

Today I woke up anxious about our first appointment!. I got ready early and went to the shop to get started for the day and to keep my mind occupied until 10! Craig came to pick me up and we headed 5 minutes down the road to the Maternal-Fetal Group’s office here in Newport News. There were about 20 patients, all in different stages of pregnancy, waiting to see the doctors so I felt a little intimidated. When my name was called, an automatic nervous smile appeared on my face. Craig could tell that I was nervous and reminded me multiple times to "just breathe". 

I was directed to the scale then the bathroom for a urine test and then room 2. Thankfully my nurse Inez was amazing. She was really sweet, explained everything slowly and always smiled. That put me at ease. When it came time to check my blood pressure and pulse, both were elevated!!!! I blamed it on the excitement of being there but Ines seemed a bit worried. She rechecked it about 5 minutes later with no change, and asked me to lay down on my left side and try to relax.  The Nurse Practitioner Anna came in and she was also very kind. By this time my blood pressure and pulse had decreased and we were able to move on with the appointment. We spoke about prenatal testing, blood work and she did a quick ultrasound on my belly (after telling me I was about 5 weeks) and pointed to a tiny black dot on the screen and said “That’s it!". At that point, things became more and more real.  A few minutes later, we met one of the attendings Dr. Abuhamed, who we also liked very much. He reiterated that we would have to deliver at Norfolk General and admitted that although I would probably be an easy patient in comparison to his workload, that he needed to read a bit more about pregnancy and delivery of someone with my history. On our way out, they scheduled us for an appointment in 3 weeks to “discuss the lab work” and 6 weeks to get our first official ultrasound....ugh! can I wait that long??? 

We left the office extremely pleased and relieved that this group of doctors and nurses seemed capable and willing to see us through this pregnancy. When Craig dropped me off at the shop, my mom ran out with a gift bag....she hugged us tightly and handed it to us. The card read “Things will change before you know it, this is something to get you ready. With love, grandma manis”. I almost started crying and quickly opened the bag. She had bought us 2 books, mine was “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” and Craig’s was “So You’re Going To Be A Dad”....more reality set in and I could hardly contain my excitement!!!! Anxious to hear every detail about our appointment, my mom and I walked back in to the shop and Craig headed back to work. 

A little later this afternoon, our friends Martin and Lisa welcomed their baby girl Haven Emilia Zelada into this world. When we heard the news, we cheered and I couldn’t help but think of OUR upcoming day!!!!! Life is absolutely perfect. I married my best friend, and now we are going to have a baby together....

Good Night!!!

Today, while Craig worked a 24-hour shift, my mom accompanied me to the cardiologist. To my great surprise, I saw Neoma (the nurse practitioner, who I knew from the hospital) and when I told her the news, she screamed and her eyes built up with tears. She hugged both my mom and I and ran out to let Dr. Herre know. He walked in and congratulated us and proceeded to change all my medications!!!! He then insisted that I need to be followed by a high risk group and that I would have to deliver at Norfolk General because “we have the children’s hospital next door!”. I took a deep breath and with a HUGE smile I said I would do whatever was deemed necessary. Neoma made the call to the Maternal-Fetal EVMS group and I got the appointment for tomorrow!!!!

I called Craig on my way out and although it was only about 3pm, I was ready for bed...tomorrow can’t come fast enough!.....so Good Night!!!!!

NEWS! NEWS! NEWS!

Craig didn't want to make the news too public with the fear that something could go wrong, but I wanted to scream it to the world at the top of my lungs!! 

Today I got up early to go into the shop and get things ready with my mom before heading to “Alzheimer’s Walk to Find a Cure” in support of Abuelita. The cause is amazing and the idea was for every person to get a flower of whatever color corresponded to their personal story. After introductions and some singing, everyone would give the flower to a volunteer prior to starting their walk and after crossing the finish line, everyone would see a "garden" of flowers planted among banners of hope, care and encouragement!! 

With the excuse of my leg and heart, I couldn’t walk the 1-3 miles so Craig and I waited for the others in a bench. My mom and Allen were the first ones back and as they hugged us, Allen said “if we can’t tell, how are you going to know how truly excited we are?” and that did it for me!. I turned to Craig and begged him if I could tell my family, with a big smile, he agreed and I winked to my mom who ran to the other side of the park and told my uncle Tato, his girlfriend Judy and my cousin Eduardo. We heard a joyous scream and as I looked up, all three of them plus my mom were running in our direction to congratulate us.  Judy gave me a big hug and called me "Little Mama" and I almost bursted into tears! "I am a little mama", I thought and I'm loving every minute of it!!!

When we got back to the shop, I felt that I couldn’t call my family fast enough. Everyone was so excited to get the news and wished us the best. I can’t stop smiling, I feel so lucky and so blessed. 

Little Pitt's Onesies

Today started like any other friday at the cupcake shop, but today I was tired, I felt fatigued, and for some odd reason I was thirsty therefore peeing A LOT!!!! At almost closing time, it occurred to me “could it be?”. After what seemed like 5 frustrating months of “trying and failing”, I told myself, “if this month is not our lucky month, Im done trying for a bit, I will focus on the shop, myself, my marriage, my house, etc etc etc” but when I got home and took that test that reveled 2 lines, I was in shock!!!! I realized I was home alone and although I wanted to scream, I couldn't, so I ran to our dog Ink and hugged him pretty tight and he was the first one to officially hear the news!!!! I ran out to the store to find a cute way of telling the daddy-to-be!!! In my search, I found 3 unique onesies that I decided would be perfect to use to deliver the news.  I got home, still in shock, and decided to give another test a try just to make sure. This one was digital, so I couldn't doubt it when the word “Pregnant” flashed on the screen. 

Craig was coming home shortly so I folded a red firefighter “Little Hero” newborn onesie and wrapped it in a silver box and put it on top of his pillow. When Craig got home from work, he went upstairs to change so that we could join my family for dinner. I ran after him pretending I needed to get a sweater and when we got to our room, I stayed by the door. He was surprised to see the box and asked “is this for me?” I said “oh yeah it is!!”, he opened it and carefully pulled out the onesie and smiled, “this is really cute”, then he paused, and turned confused. My smile was from ear to ear and I said “Surprise, I’m pregnant!!”, his eyes got big and with tears in our eyes we hugged in disbelief. We hugged tightly and hung on to each other as we felt our lives shifting gears. We could hardly contain the excitement but went to dinner with the planned excuse to leave early so that we could swing by my parents to get a package that we knew had arrived today. 

Craig ordered 2 margaritas, and along with my water, we cheered quietly. When we got back in the car, I wrapped a new onesie that said “Brand New” in the same silver box. When we got to my parents, we walked in and proceeded to see if Allen could come downstairs to ask him about a “problem with the car”. When he came downstairs, we quickly gave my mom the box to open pretending that it was a “I'm so happy we are cupcake partners” gift. She was in shock when she pulled out the onesie and with a big smile she turned to us. “We are pregnant!” I screamed. Tears filled her eyes and unable to let go of the hugs, she kept saying “are you serious?, Im going to be a grandma? Manis?” Allen was in a bit of shock and with little words he hugged us. Concerned with my health, he asked “are you going to be ok?” and I said “I sure hope so!”. 
We quickly left that house to move onto the next. I brought the same silver box and while in the car I wrapped one last onesie. This one said “Emergency Room Personnel” and with a picture of a stethoscope it resembled our work scrubs. We arrived to my in-laws and while discussing the football game, we handed over the box. They thought it was a cupcake!!  As soon as Adrienne pulled out the onesie, she smiled and looked at us slightly confused. Unable to contain myself I screamed it again “We are pregnant!!!!” and they both greeted us with hugs and tears of joy!
