Unexpectedly Expecting #2!!!



We found out on December 20, 2008 that our then 9 month old daughter Izzie Jo was entering new territory - BIG SISTER HOOD!!! We were shocked to say the least, but very excited!! We are nervous - the babies will only be 18 months apart - and we are hoping that this pregnancy goes better than my pregnancy with Isabelle went. (For those that don't know - I was on bedrest at 27 weeks until I delivered with Isabelle, and also had pre-eclampsia.)

So far all is going well. I've already had the first ultrasound, which showed one healthy little baby bean with a beating heart!! (My mom was certain I was having twins). I have my next appointment on Monday, then another ultrasound at 12weeks.

So far I am just extremely nauseous - ALL DAY LONG - whomever came up with the name 'morning sickness' clearly didn't have it, and the name is like a cruel joke! And I've been tired - which is to be expected when chasing a now 11 month old and being newly pregnant!

Guess that is all for now. Soon we will start the belly pictures to watch the growth - I think it is going to happen faster this time around!
