My exact due date is March 11th. I was completely shocked when I looked up my due date online just after we found out we were expecting. That was my due date with Kyson! HERE's the post I did when I was pregnant with Kyson. I mean seriously, what are the chances of that? I've gotten over it and don't mind anymore but at first I wasn't sure what to think of that!
Kyson and this baby will be pretty much exactly four years apart. It's kind of hard to believe it's been four years since the last time I experienced all of this pregnancy stuff!
The first person (besides Jared and I:) to find out we are expecting was Jared's cousin Reyn. Jared accidently sent a text to Reyn that he meant to send to me that spilled the beans.
I'm pretty sure no one is more excited about having a baby than Caleb is. We told him there is a baby in my tummy and told him to tell all is Grandmas and Grandpas. It was so cute watching him run up to them and tell them, "My Mommy has a baby in her tummy!" He has since told his entire primary class, his pre-school class, and many friends. I know he is going to be a lot of help and such a good big brother.
Boy or girl? I honestly don't care whether it's a boy or girl but I think Caleb is going to be quite disappointed if I have to tell him it's a boy. When I showed him the pics from the ultrasound he said, "Is that the picture of the baby girl?" I had to explain that we aren't sure what it is yet:)
I am excited to be done with the first trimester and I'm hoping it means I can start feeling better. I am so grateful I don't get as sick as some people but I'm getting tired of spending an hour making dinner and then not even being able to eat it.
Of course more than anything we are hoping for an uneventful pregnancy and a healthy baby. My doctor said when I'm about 24 weeks he's going to send me to get a fetal echocardiogram. He said I can get it done at Kyson's cardiologist's office. The two ladies who do the echos there know us well and love Kyson so it will be fun to have it done there. I'm just praying they only have good things to tell us!
And last but not least, I had to add these two pictures. I thought it would be a fun way to announce my pregnancy on my blog but of course I forgot about them when I did! This is from our trip to CA at the beginning of August...
