I'm a Free Woman!

Ummmm . . . . Maybe, not so much . . .























WHAT?!?!?!? Yes, I'm pregnant. We hadn't planned this, but we were planning on starting to try soon. I was nervous about our upcoming attempts at trying because of the hard time we had getting pregnant with our first. I just knew I would think about it all the time, stress about it, and learn some great life lesson on patience, but maybe this was God's way of sparing me. The due date (according to babycenter.com) is March 29th - that's 2 days after Ca's 2nd birthday. So, for those keeping track, I'll have a 3 1/2 yr old, 2 yr old, and newborn. That lady you feel sorry for in the grocery store with the huge train grocery cart full of babies - that'll be me. A van will be a must. Three in carseats won't fit our SUV. Chances are, I did overlap nursing and pregnancy, AGAIN. By the time I'm finished nursing this one, I will have been nursing/pregnant for approximately FIVE YEARS!! No break in between. That's crazy. We are extremely happy, excited, and looking forward to having a third child. God is good and He'll be my strength. If I seem depressed when you talk to me on the phone, it's just because I do not feel well. The "morning" sickness (whoever thought it should be called that MUST have been a man) is already here and it's affecting my normal cheery disposition. Well, that's the story. I thought I was a free, but turns out . . . not so much. But I sure am blessed.

This morning in the church nursery,
Jenny: Do you read Wendy's blog?
Me: Oh yeah.
Jenny: Can you believe she's pregnant?
Me: What?!

Thanks for tonight:) Neill teased me the whole way home about the butter thing.

He was like, I am so full.

And I said, oh really, I'm fine.

He was like, how can you not be full?

I was like, well I am full, just not overly. It takes alot to fill me up.

And he was like; you ate a stinkin bite of butter; and we both started laughing really hard. Butter doesn't taste quite the same when you think it's cheesecake.
