It was Sunday May 11, 2014 on Mother's Day, when I woke up and took a pregnancy test. This was my second one in two weeks, and I thought what better surprise would there be than to receive a positive test today? So I waited the 2-3 minutes to see the results, and to my surprise, I was pregnant! I was so excited. I got dressed and went downstairs where my husband was feeding our 13 month old Finley breakfast, and I handed him the test. He hugged and kissed me and I remember how happy he was.
With it being Mother's Day, we were headed to the Chicago Botanic Garden to have a family day. On the drive there, I remember being really happy and my mind started to race with all the new adventures to come. Now I had to juggle two children at a time, a toddler and a newborn, goodness how was I gonna do it? The day was spent walking around, looking at the flowers, having lunch, and ended with Finley splashing in the water fountains. It was a really fun family day overall.

The drive home was quiet, we were all tired and worn out from the heat. I remember being excited to start planning my new life adventures and what was to come next. Come Monday I needed to make the phone call to my OB/GYM. I was genuinely happy about the next chapter in my life. Things were good.
