Of course we didn't believe it could be true so we ran to Wal-Mart and bought two more pregnancy tests; different brands...just-in-case. When we got home, Diana took the other test to see if we maybe just got a false positive. No, positive again! Could this really be happening? Diana and I be responsible for a human life? No way.
My first reaction (that lasted for the entire evening) was disbelief. I would only believe it once a baby actually came out of Diana. Diana's reaction wasd excitement and more nervous laughing. We took out one of our pregnancy books that we bought earlier and every time Diana read anything new, she would laugh and cry for 5 minutes. We read about how Diana would start to have morning sickness soon, about all the changes with the baby in the next couple weeks, and all the changes with Diana's body.
After another pregnancy test was taken :) in the morning and the results were the same, the disbelief went away. We went to the bookstore and bought about a dozen books to figure out where to start with this life-changing event. I have since learned that I am pregnant too and I feel that I am a little bit more prepared to handle my wife's mood swings, food cravings, and craziness.
One more pregnancy test later (just to make sure)and we are well into our first pregnancy (well, only about 6 weeks into it). We just hope that our baby stays healthy and that we are completely ready for our lives to be changed. Our emotions have now changed to utter amazement after feeling every single emotion possible. We hope that everything goes smoothly and that the baby gets my good looks. :)

YAYYYYY! We are so extremely excited for you guys! Just a heads-up. Kylie requested a girl, and that you name her, "Ashley." :)
I have heard from two people already that it is going to be a boy. And that it's name will be THE HULK. I am leaning towards Kylie with the name!
You can use Ashley for a girl or a boy, but I think you have to use the Hulk if the baby is green and looks like Ken. Hopefully the baby will take after the grandmother and be brave and take care of spiders for his/her mom and dad.
There's one vote for girl and one vote for boy from these cousins, and Basia thinks that her choice will actually affect the outcome. She is mad at Brishen for voting against her. We're so excited!!
Congrats! My vote is for a boy and a girl! :)
