In case you did a double take, it's TRUE! We're having another baby!!! We used this pumpkin to tell our families last week and now we're excited to share the news with all of you. Craig & I wanted to wait till after the wedding to make our announcement and I almost didn't know if we'd make it that long... I feel like I'm showing MUCH faster the second time around and my belly is undeniable now to people who know me well. I've been dressing to disguise it as best I could for the past few weeks.
So I'm 12 weeks along now and due at the end of April. We were a bit surprised at first - two kids under the age of 2... Ahhh!!! But the shock has worn off and we are so excited now. We're also especially excited about another announcement: my sister Casey is pregnant too! She found out a little over a week ago and she is due mid-June. Casey and I are elated to get to go through pregnancy together and have children close in age. It's so cool and our families are super excited too.
I found out (tested) on August 18th after a gut feeling that I might be pregnant, and announced the surprising news to Craig by having Will carry the positive test to him when he walked through the door after work.
For several weeks, I felt considerably more nauseous and tired this time compared to my first. But that is subsiding now that my first trimester is coming to an end and I'm trying to stay active again with walking and a little running. Will definitely keeps me on my toes, so I'm sure that plays into my frequent fatigue as well.
Anyway, I'll continue to post updates here throughout the pregnancy as my belly and our new baby get bigger. Thank you to everyone who have already shared Congratulations. We truly feel blessed.
