Surprise...

We are pregnant with Baby #2! It was a bit of a surprise to us as well, but we are super exciting and look forward to meeting this little life! Here are some of the details:

When am I due? I am due July 27, which makes me 12 weeks today!

How far apart will the kids be? They will be just under 19 months apart.

Was this planned? Not really. We had talked about starting to try in the next few months, but had not planned to get pregnant that month! We have decided that talking about it is dangerous; that was how we got pregnant with Natalie too! :)

How am I feeling? For the most part pretty good. I forgot how the first trimester knocks you right out though! That combined with us all being sick for the last 6 1/2 weeks! I have been a lot sicker with this one though - with Natalie my gag reflex was affected and I was just about sick once - with this one I have already thrown up quite a few times! And of course tired - moving and chasing around a toddler will help with that!

Am I showing? Slightly, though not really. I feel like I was showing a whole lot more with Natalie at this stage in the game, but thats fine. I guess being nausious every time I eat doesn't allow me to eat too much! :) I look forward to feeling somewhat normal again - with Ali that took till about 14 weeks.

Thats all I can think of at the moment, but if you have any other questions, feel free to ask!

Oh, and our move went great yesterday. Now, unpacking and settling in! I will post some pics once we get a bit more settled
