Another dream come true

I have been dreaming about this day for some time now. I have thought many times of how I would word it and if I put pictures to it what they might look like. I have thought of making it out to be a surprise or a shock but realise that most of you probably already know. I have had trouble posting on any other subject for the desire to post this is always in the back of my mind. I thought that I could hold off for longer but I am just not that person. I get to excited. I want the world to share in the joy, the anticipation. I am sure you have guessed by now for you all know where our lives are at. You know that our little Suzie will turn two in November and that we want for her to have a sibbling. If you know these things about us then you should know by now that soon we would like to have a second. Another little bundle of jumping beans.

Well right now it is the size of a kidney bean. It is tiny and yet has had such an intense effect on me already. My body is tired, I sleep all the time. Every nap of Suzie's is a nap of mine. I get sick to the stomach when I have not eaten at just that precise moment, that perfect second in the day when I am just barely hungry but not too hungry. I spend half the night up and down the stairs to the bathroom to pee. This and so much more is all thanks to this tiny little person growing inside of me.

I am now at week eight and growing. I can no longer wear my tightest jeans cause they are uncomfortable. Mind you I quit them almost right off. Things seem to get sensitive right in the start.

I am due on April the 28th, It seems so far from now and yet so soon.

And this little person from nearly two years ago,






Who has turned into this little person with so much spirit and spunk, with a heart so full of love and joy. She will become an older sister. I can't wait to see the pride and joy she will have. The desire to help take care of the baby. She will be a wonderful sister. Will there be struggles? Most likely, but if there weren't I would be surprised. In the end I know she will love this little person with all her heart.


And there you have it. The news I have been dying to tell you. The reason there are fewer posts these days. Once I hit my second trimester it should be better. I am not so tired then. As for now I will continue to nap when Suzie does. I will continue to get things done that don't need my physical strength (i.e. books, quilting, reading to Suzie). And I will continue to eat as many small meals as it takes to keep them all down, so far so good. And we will all continue to enjoy this wonderful life we are living.
