Unexpecting Mommy has been sick the entire week with what she believes is "food poisoning". We decided to go to the doctor Friday morning (January 30th) for an evaluation and the doctor asks if there is a possibility Unexpecting Mommy could be pregnant. Naturally, Unexpecting Mommy is completely appalled that the Doctor would ask such a ridiculous question given our history. Unexpecting Daddy had a strong suspicion that the doctor may be right given Monster's prolonged illness.  In true form, Unexpecting Mommy adamantly dismisses the notion and refuses to take a pregnancy test.

On February 1st, 2009 (Superbowl Sunday), Unexpecting Mommy secretly decides to take "the test" once Unexpecting Daddy had left the apartment to run his half marathon. Unexpecting Mommy is unequivocally positive she is not pregnant (but hopes she is wrong). To her amazement, three positive pregnancy tests confirm there is indeed a bun in the oven!!! Unexpecting Mommy is elated, in complete shock, and decides to relay the exciting news to Unexpecting Daddy right before he is scheduled to begin the race.  Daddy is on cloud 9 and wants to ditch the race but Mommy insists he run it "for the baby". Needless to say, Unexpecting Daddy finished the Half Marathon in record time and rushed home to give Mommy and Baby a kiss. 

Time to schedule a real doctor's appointment to confirm our findings.  Everyone knows you cannot have complete confidence in those darn sticks!
