Peace Out College

Like I said in my last post A LOT has happened lately. Although finding out about Baby V was by far the most exciting news it does not trump my biggest accomplishment as today. I finally got to say good by to UCF!! I am now officially an educated woman ready to take on the world, for like 6 more months then I will be tackling a whole NEW world.

Graduation week was a CRAZY blur filled with family, friends and a lot of packing (more on this in another post). Jon's family flew in from Vegas  and it was fabulous. I even got to have a last minuet party to celebrate and say good bye to everyone. My parents are pretty much the most amazing parents ever because they bought me a a brand new Nikon D5200 with 2 new lenses for graduation and I am pretty much as excited as  is humanly possible to own it. Jon loves it almost as much as me and took the job of graduation photographer so here are some pictures from my artsy hubby...

Why I Will NEVER Play a April Fools Joke Again

Well it has been a little over a month since my last post and even longer since the one before that. Usually that would mean that everything is normal aka quite and kind of boring but for once that is not the case!
Quite a few things have happened since and it was just too soon to write about them but the time has come!!! Ill start with the biggest development...

The story goes a little something like this...

One fateful April Fools Day a young wife set out to trick her husband like she never had before...
Basically I had a huge break between classes and a friend and I were talking about the best pranks we had done. Which is when I realized I have never pranked my sweet hubby, who happens to LOVE teasing me. So I came up with the most brilliant plan. I would convince him I was pregnant! We had just had a "scare"  a couple months before which actually was me forgetting to keep track and getting nervous which is fairly normal but after that we had a serious talk about waiting for little nuggets for about a year. So I thought it was a GREAT idea to trick him.

My friend and I came up with a great plan and all day I prepared him with little hints like I am two to three days late ( which I would know because my tracker has been my BEST friend since the scare), my stomach felt gross, I was sooo tired...which at the time was all true but I KNEW I was about to start...all the signs were there cramping, grumpiness and even my monthly headache. So on we went....  we found the perfect picture of a positive test, it was to be the last piece to our evil plan. So after my next class I called the hubby and started on the rehearsed "I just took a pregnancy test" talk.  Turns out he had been so stressed that instead of freaking out he went to the movies by himself  so he didn't have to think about it...I don't know why he was so on board with believing me because usually his first reaction to every thing is "its all in your head!"  So I continued with my story and he was being so supportive even though I could tell he was FREAKING out, So at this I couldn't lie any more so I ruined my own joke. I started laughing and it was over. We had a good laugh the rest of the week ant then we realized my period never came....

AND THIS HAPPENED...

So what if I thought the first test was broken and we had to go buy 2 more just to check...
It's normal right?

 And I cried and then I laughed and then I cried again all the while Jon laughed and smiled because he had already worked through his shock the week before. After the initial shock wore off though I was happy as can be and now we will have a sweet little nugget of our own just in time for Christmas. Baby V will be here (hopefully) December 8, 2013 and I will NEVER again play an April Fools Joke!
