Post # 200!! Yay!!! What s fun life and 200 posts! But on to our big news!!! Well, I'm pregnant...again!!! :) That's right!!! Baby George #2 will be arriving in June 2013! I have had a few minor complications and even though I am only 9 weeks I have had 5 ultrasounds already and 6 doctor appointments. At the 8 week appointment they pretty much cleared me, saying everything is looking fine and better. So, I still have 1 more "specialist" appointment at 12 weeks to check up on everything but my doctor seems to think everything is fine.
A few family members and people have asked if this was planned or a surprise and we answer that by saying it was a, "oh that was fast!" haha. I knew I wanted at least my first 2 children close together in age but since I was still breastfeeding Thomas we weren't so sure that I would get pregnant so quickly again. Well, I did!! We are very excited and can't wait to meet this newest little addition to our family.
A few things that have been hard about this pregnancy:
- I had to stop breastfeeding Thomas and that was about the hardest thing I have had to do! My doctor told me it was best to wean him to formula. Thankfully he was 10 months old when I started the weaning process so he really only has about 1 1/2 months on formula before I would start weaning him to whole milk anyway.
- chasing a 10 month old has made this one harder. Before with T I was sitting at a desk and that made pregnancy a little easier.
A few things that have been easier about this pregnancy so far:
- I don't have to dress up for work everyday. Most days I am in workout pants and a T shirt!
- Naps!!! I nap or rest each time Thomas naps. This had been good for me but not good for having a clean house. Haha.
I am sure there will be many more fun comparisons with the two different pregnancies! For now...I will leave you with a picture of our little one!! :)

I am so happy! I know I said this already--but I have to say it again! YAY! I hope this pregnancy will be great for you and that you will continue to feel good.
Also, buckle up because my 2nd pregnancy went SO fast because I was involved with all of Lucy's milestones! (which is kind of a good thing because then you have 2 babies in your arms before you know it!)
We will pray for all four of you during this season!
