Big News!

We are expecting baby number TWO.

I could hardly believe my eyes when I peed on that sick! We are so thrilled to be blessed with another baby. My due date should be around May 25th, 2010, but since I grow big babies we are probably looking more towards the first two weeks in May.

I have so many emotions running through me it is crazy. I am so excited for another and also, so so scared.  I don’t remember feeling this run down with Logan. I am so tired I can hardly get through the day. It doesn’t help that for the last two weeks Logan has been completely out of control. This is why we are starting day care tomorrow for once a week. I think it will be really good for him to socialize with other kids and to have an outing from home. This will also be good for me, so that once a week I can sleep, clean, or doing nothing for six whole hours. 

After working in Labor and Delivery for five years and seeing all the bad things that can happen I become very anxious during pregnancy. I felt this way with Logan, but since Wes was battling cancer when I was pregnant with Logan it wasn’t as easy to think about what could go wrong.  This time I already feel that I am questioning what is going on with my body and I’m a whooping six weeks.

So I ask, please pray from my sanity along with good health for baby and myself.

Congrats on the baby Hannah! That is such great news! I hear ya on the tired during pregnancy thing! With Michael, I felt great. I was induced a week after my due date and would have been fine going longer, but with this pregnancy, I can't wait for it to end!! I think running around after a child already takes so much out of us! And I feel the same way about all the anxiety. It's easier to worry when you know what to worry about! Just don't let your mind go there! That's what I've had to learn to do, and take it easy!! Good luck with everything!

Yay! Congrats Hannah! There's tired, and then there's pregnant tired, and the two are NOT the same. It's unbelievable how some days you are just trying to stay awake-that's the only goal. When I was pregnant with Lila I made up all sorts of games about Anabelle tucking me in, I let her play doctor (which entails me laying down and her hitting me softly with every object in her room)....basically anything where I could lay down and still feel like I was sort of caring for her. I'm so excited for you.

And I love your blog by the way. I wish we lived closer so I could hit you up to photograph my little ankle-biters.

Congrats. I hope that the pregnancy flies by. I remember being so tired with my last pregnancy too.
