Baby Tag

I usually don't really care for tags, but I saw this one on someone else's blog and thought it was fun to read, plus I just haven't really had anything to blog about lately! And I needed a new post! So I hope you enjoy!

1- Where were you when you first found out you were pregnant?
With Ethan and Hannah both- I was at home when I took the test, but confirmed it at the Doctors office.

With Ethan and Hannah both- Dave was with me at home, but I went by myself to the Dr.

3-How did you find out that you were pregnant?
With both Ethan and Hannah- I took a test and there was just barely a hint of a second line, so I was still a little unsure, so I called my dr. and they said to come in and they would test me. So for Ethan they just had me take a pregnancy test there and that one showed a definite second line, and with Hannah they instantly drew my blood and the dr. called me at home later that night to confirm that I was.
