Here we go again!

Well, here we go again! Last Wednesday Link and I were SHOCKED to discover that I'm pregnant! Don't get me wrong, we know what causes it BUT it took us eleven months to conceive Claire! We decided early on that we wanted our children 2-3 years apart. Link perferred 3 years and I preferred 2. I convinced him that we should start trying sooner rather than later since it took so long to get Claire and voila! Two months later I'm knocked up!

So how did I tell Link this time? Last Wednesday I took a test after Link left for work. When it showed up positive I started pacing. I was so incredibly shocked that I didn't know what to do with myself. When Claire woke up I told her she'd be a big sister (I had to tell someone)! :) That afternoon I pulled out Claire's crayons and paper and I drew a picture of our family (like those cheesy ones you see on people's cars). I wrote on the top "Dear Daddy, I'm going to be a big sister!" I then let Claire scribble all over it. When Link got home I had her give it to him. It was pretty cute.

So the basics: I'm due March 14th. The kiddos will be 27 months apart. I'm feeling pretty good. I'm extremely exhausted and run to the bathroom ever 30 minutes or so, but other than that, I feel great! No real nausea...even less than I had with Claire although I know there is still time for it to kick in. I also get really bloated at night and look like I'm already 5 months along. Tonight I had a craving for Panda Express but Link said it sounded gross so we had our usual Wahoo's instead. :)

Until next time....
