Week 8

Well I just finished my second month and am feeling way better. I still have some kind of "morning" sickness and have become very tired on some days. I asked Alex if this pregnancy is any different from the last two and he answered with a BIG YES. With this one I am very sick, MOODY, and extremely tired. We are just hoping that since it is a different pregnancy it means that it is a boy. One good thing is that I can still fit into my clothes.

We are just all excited here about the upcoming baby. Both girls have a preference on what they want for a sibling. Sam wants a little sister. This way she has someone to dress up in cute clothes, plus I think she just wants a little sister since she's the little sister. Ashley wants a baby brother and tells anyone who will listen. She evens asks for a brother in her prayers. Both Alex and I are hoping for twin boys. I know that we are asking for trouble but since this is our last one it would be good to have a playmate for him/her.

It looks like we have a lot of work to do to get ready for this one. I have a lot of cleaning to do. The baby's room has been our catch all room. I am really excited about decorating the room. I do have to wait until we know what were having and how many before I can start buying things.

New Addition

I have decided to keep the blog updated with all that is going on with this new baby. I will have to say that this pregnancy was a BIG shock. We have been not really trying to have another one but not doing anything to prevent it. I had been feeling sick and very emotional the last couple of weeks. I knew that I was "late" but that never really bothered me since I usually am every month. I went running with a friend of mine and she got me thinking that I should test to see if I was pregnant. I got the test and it didn't even take a whole 3 minutes to let me know that I was. Needless to say I was dumbfounded. I called Alex to let me know and I don't think that he believed me at first.

I was able to go to the hospital and take a blood test that day. Within two hours it was confirmed that baby number 3 was on it's way. I told the girls and they were a little surprised at the news. Ashley claims that she is going to be changing all the diapers but I am sure that will change soon after. Sam is excited I think she wants a baby sister so she has some to dress up in cute outfits.

As most of you know we are hoping for a little boy since we have the two girls. It will be great no matter what we have. It will be interesting to be parents of a newborn all over again. There will be a twelve year difference between this one and Sam. That is like how my little sister and I are.

Alex and I are very excited. It will be great to have a little one in the house. Thank you all for your support in the next few month.
