How we found out

Well well we found out on December 24th 2008 at approximately 6:15am that we were going to have a baby.

Cindee had been sick for a few days with a wicked flu, and I had been sleeping on the couch to avoid the evil. She walked in xmas-eve morning and sat on the couch staring at me with these big blue eyes which had me a bit concerned. I asked what was wrong (no response) I asked again (no response), she simply handed me the pregnancy test applicator and asked "Do those look like double lines to you?". I was still groggy from sleep but I knew right away what that meant. I asked Cindee if the test was one of those cheap dollar store tests which she confirmed. I then told her to wake me up when she tests with a legitimate test (of course she needed to go spend 14$ on a test to convince me, I just wanted to be sure).

So there you have it, thats how we found out. We told her family that night when everyone was together. I waited to tell my family until Friday the 26th because I wanted to see their faces when I announced the news. They were extatic as well (as suspected).

We spent the last week in Arizona with family and friends, its been a good week though it was good to be home "in front of my plasma" to watch the 'University of Utah Utes' win the Sugar Bowl for a 13-0 season, as well as the Arizona Cardinals win a wildcard spot in the playoffs by defeating the Atlanta Falcons (Cindee and I are hardcore football fans)..

More to come!

and WE, (Art's family), found out by him showing us a picture of the pregnancy test. I didn't have my glasses, so couldn't really make out what it was at first. (Note to self: Hang my reading glasses around my neck for such important occasions. You never know when they'll occur!)
We're absolutely thrilled. :-)
