Okay, so if you read one of my last posts you know that my mama and daddy bought us a brand new BEAUTIFUL bed. My mom said she wished it would bring us good luck with the baby making.... well it worked! She brought us the bed on Saturday and we got pregnant the following Wednesday. My mother is pretty awesome and quite amazing! She cried for about 10 minutes after I told her we were expecting.
Our newest addition is due July 22nd... but according to my latest ultrasound that little one is already measuring 3 days bigger... if that is any indication I am in for a whopper of a child. Nevaeh was 9 lbs 13 oz, and I've heard that your 2nd tends to be bigger than your first!! Luckily, I will be scheduled for a C-section a week before my due date BUT unfortunately that will be right around Nevaeh's birthday, and I don't feel like stealing her thunder. I don't want to start any sibling rivalry the day the new one is born! I guess we will just have to figure something out, right?!?! Any ideas?
Honestly, I don't know who is more excited, Nevaeh or Jacob. Nevaeh talks about her sister (because she is already convinced it will NOT and I repeat NOT be a boy) non stop, and she talks to my belly all the time! She rubs my belly and talks softly to her sister, so sweet. I can't even imagine how she will smother her when she does get here.
Jacob can't wait for me to start showing!! He can't wait until he can feel the baby move so he can somehow be a bigger part of the process. We weren't going to tell anyone (other than immediate family) until at least my 2nd ultrasound. Well, every time Jacob came home from work he would say "babe, I told someone today". I couldn't get mad, I knew he was so excited he couldn't help his loose lips! Who am I kidding... as soon as I saw the baby's heartbeat I started blabbing... and telling all of my friends and neighbors.
Jacob and I couldn't feel more blessed. We have been praying for this baby for a LONG LONG time. We both cried when we finally saw PREGNANT on the stick... it almost felt unreal. After so many NOT PREGNANTs it seemed as if it was never going to happen.
OH by the way.... my sister Monica is also expecting. She is just 5 weeks further along than I am. We will be pregnant together again!! Can't wait...
