feeling: clouded, dazed, not 100% with it -- but all in a very good way!
this week we found out we are expecting our second child! i took the test on Saturday and confirmed it with the doctor on Monday. we've been trying for quite awhile, since the end of last summer. i was basically to the point of not expecting much. i've taken so many tests in the last 8 months that it just didnt phase me anymore to get a negative. but this time was different!
naturally Matthew told me he already knew (thanks for the heads up know-it-all!).
we are both overjoyed!! our family will finally be completed! we've always wanted to have 2 kids. 4 is our magic family number! neither one of us can decide if we want a boy or girl this time. of course we'll be happy with either one!!
to make it better my due date is October 23.... Ethan's was October 22! the bad part of this is that i'd rather have my kids birthdays spread out... much more!! the good is that all my maternity clothes i've kept will work again this time around! and if we have a boy, all of Ethan's clothes i've kept will work again too!
today - February 23 - i am 5 weeks. (you wont see this for a couple more weeks though! we need to tell parents first!) my first doctors appointment in March 25. it seems so far away!
i've been in a daze since yesterday morning, going to the doctor somehow makes it more real. i'm in awe that this has finally happened for us! i'm so so very happy that i just want to cry all day! and i'm totally scared out of my mind!!! haha! 2 kids? whos idea was this?!? I really want it to be 2 months from now so it will all be "real" and sunken in!
Ethan will be a wonderful big brother, Matthew is already a great father and well,... i think i'm an okay Mom!
now the biggest question is... boy or girl?!
