The Last 36 weeks


Our Adventure started about 36 weeks ago in Vegas! But we didn’t know about it until November 23rd!

On Friday (Nov 21) we had gone out for dinner to white spot, Gord ordered a burger and Yam Fries and I ordered the Pad Thai. As soon as my dish arrived the smell overtook me, there was no way I was going to be able to eat it! The only way I can describe the stench was that it smelled like a wet horse! I did choke back a few bites and it actually didn’t taste half as bad as it smelled. But I ended up picking off Gord’s plate anyways!

On Saturday, while at coffee with my friend and SIL Tricia, I told her about the Pad Thai incident. She was the only person who knew that Gord and I were trying and therefore got the privilege of listening to my endless symptoms. She convinced me to take a Pregnancy test, so I decided to test the next morning as soon as I woke up.

On Sunday Morning (Nov 23) Gord was out of the house, working on the Christmas Display at his parents house, while I was at home peeing on a stick! A magnificent stick that almost immediately revealed two lines!!! It was one of the happiest moments in my life! Only trouble was, Gord would be working on the Christmas display all day and I didn’t want to tell him over the phone… so I had to wait until he got home. Talk about torture.

When he did get home I had filled out the “Waiting for me” portion of the baby book with our expected due date and a note to “Daddy”, with the test. I let him find it himself when he walked in the house and all he said was “Honey, do you have something to tell me?”
