I went to Down East, because I remembered from my college days, that they sold discounted American Eagle jeans. I was pretty sure I would be able to find the perfect pair. And to my surprise, I did, two actually. One needed to be rolled up a bit at the bottom, but still looks stylish, and the other, well, the other pair fits me like a glove. I have never had a pair of pants fit so well! Needless to say, I was pretty excited.
Then, I needed a pair of winter boots, you know, the furry topped trendy kind to go with my brand new stylish jeans. And I found a perfect pair at Famous Footwear. 3 1/2 inch heels and a lovely tan color. Ah, this winter is going to be fabulous.
Of course, once I got all my neat doodads home to show off to Nick, I had a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach. Like, oh man, I probably shouldn't have bought these. I shrugged it off and told myself I was just being silly, I deserved a great pair of jeans! I get tired of pajamas every day.
And then, something funny happened. I woke up about a week later, after a very bizarre dream, and thought to myself, hmm, I think I'll take a pregnancy test, just for fun. I bet you can guess where this is going…..
I thought it was the kind of test where you need to see a plus sign in the window for a positive. So I took it, and was relieved to see only one line in the result window. I put it down, not thinking much of it. Then, I did a double take, and saw the key on the test indicating one line was in fact a positive.
Yeah, that's when I dropped to my knees and began crying hysterically over my new pants.
Funny how things happen that you haven't planned for at all.
Luckily, I had concocted a while back a clever way to tell Nick. I mean after all, I had to live up to how I had spilled the beans the first time. In the style of Wimpy Kid, I drew on a T-Shirt "Big Brother" with Rodrick tormenting a sibling. I put Tristan in it, and when Nick got home, I said, so what do you think of his shirt? Nick was like, it's cute. Of course he didn't get it… On our way out to the grocery store at the front door, I decided to try and be more obvious. "Nick, why don't you read Tristan's shirt" I said. He looked at it again, and laughed, "but he's not a big brother." Nick thought it was just a hand-me-down shirt from one of my sisters I had dressed him in. And I was like, "well, he's going to be." That's when Nick's eye got big and he asked if I was joking.
Still in denial, I got another test a week later just to make sure.

Well there you have it, a new addition to the Davis family will be here next June! Just in time for us to be moving out of state for a PhD program. We're crossing our fingers that it is a girl, because I have been sick as a dog. So incase you were wondering why we haven't been going to any family functions, there is your answer. And it's probably going to be a few more weeks before I am brave enough to venture away from my handy dandy bathroom. Yeay for babies! Boy is Tristan in for a surprise, bahahaha. Stay tuned for more updates!
