Yup, We are expecting. We are THRILLED, nervous, excited, scared, all the normal emotions that come along with pregnancy and an expanding family. We knew we'd have another baby one day but wasn't sure when it would be. We were just enjoying all the changes Jane has brought into our lives. Right around Jane's 1st Birthday we decided we'd start trying again in spring/summer for another baby. Well, there was obviously a different plan meant to be for us. I pretty much knew right away that I was pregnant but I took 3 tests that all said negative so figured I was imagining all these crazy things (crying watching tv, exhaustion, headaches, weird cramping, etc.) So a week after I got the last negative I decided I was taking another test and it came back immediately positive. Although I felt I was pregnant it was still a shock. Brad was pretty surprised too. Dawson is SO SO SO excited to be a big brother again-he's hoping for a brother this time but says if it's another sister he'll be happy. Jane is well, Jane, just doing her own thing. The week we found out she decided she was going to start putting herself to bed at nap time and bedtime. It was as if she knew she needed to be a big girl and do that on her own. So for the past month when I ask her if she wants to go night night she runs to her bed and goes right to sleep without fussing. It seems like a miracle to me and I'm amazed every time still. She walks every where. I can ask her if she's hungry or wants milk and she goes either to her chair or the fridge. If I ask her if she needs a diaper she goes to her changing table. It's fantastic and I know I'm blessed with such a sweet daughter. I hope this next one is just as amazing.
