So...this is real

We saw the positive home pregnancy test. We got the same positive results from the doctor's tests. We have been to the doctor several times. We have seen the baby in an ultra-sound twice. We even bought a stroller. None of those things made this future baby as real as what happened on Friday after work.

I got home and there was a package on the counter. Our dear friends, the Stevensons, had sent us a baby gift. Brett and I opened it up and inside we found this:


For those of you who made it to our wedding in Mexico, you realize how perfect this gift is for us. It's adorable and funny and totally "us" all wrapped in a simple little phrase. We love the gift.

But WHOA. We are going to have something that actually fits into that. It will live with us. We will hold it. We will change poopie diapers while it is wearing that exact outfit. More than any other thing that has happened so far - that little donkey outfit means we are having a baby.
