oh me oh my, how time does fly...

I have been meaning to share our special news on the blog, because, come on, it's blog-worthy!!  haha, but seriously

We are having a baby.


I've been trying to wrap my mind around it for the past, oh, I'd say 14 out of the 18 weeks I've been preggers now, and I can't.  That has been the most common similarity between my 1st pregnancy with James and this 2nd one with we-don't-know-who yet.  I looked in the mirror tonight at my belly and thought, "and it jiggled when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly..." and then I thought, wow, our baby IS there, somewhere, in that way-more-round-than-the-average-belly belly.

So, here we are.  My sweet baby James will only be my 'baby' for 5 more months, and then we get to welcome a new baby to our family.  I'm 18 weeks today and our new little one is the size of a bell pepper today. :-)  I wish I had a picture of this little pepper to show off, but sadly I have to wait about 10 more days for our new pictures and *hopefully* news of whether this little pepper is pink or blue.

Sorry it took me so long to say so little pepper, but you are welcome to our family and the whole world knows it now. :-)  We can't wait to give you a name!!

Here we are, 18 weeks!!  and yes, you could say that the belly has POPPED.  Its a preggo belly, no doubt.
