Not thinking I was pregnant at all and wanting something to do on a wintery February night, I took a pregnancy test but had thrown away the instructions the month earlier (there were two in a box and I figured I would remember what the results looked like). I did my thing, waited, and looked at the test. "What the heck do two lines mean again?" I thought to myself. It was an early response test so it didn't have the typical plus sign negative sign. I racked my brains and could not remember if two lines meant positive or negative. I walked down stairs and said "Well I think I might be pregnant." (I know fun way to tell the husband right haha) Chase says what do you mean you think you might be pregnant. I explained the situation to him we frantically started googling images for positive pregnancy tests and sure enough mine looked like the positive ones. Chase wasn't convinced and thought I should take a few more (5 more to be exact) all which came out positive (I had the instructions this time). We went out for a celebratory Slurpee and that is where Baby Norton #1 Begins.

Week 8- More throw up usually just in the mornings. Frequent urination set in (gotta love it)
Week 9-First Dr. Apt. heard the heart beat and saw the little bean :) We told our families and I "ran into" my sister at the Doctors (our Drs are in the same building and we happened to have an appointment at the same time. Can you say coincidence)
