I thought I might start a blog to document my second (and probably final pregnancy). So, here it is.


I don't know exactly how I felt at this point with my son. I know that there was a lot more "changes" to expect. We were busy planning the baby shower, registering for the baby "stuff", and planning on how everything would work when I was home all the time. We had no idea (really) what to expect.

Like I said, I don't really know what I felt at this point in the pregnancy (11 weeks). I do remember the excitement going on. So far, I don't feel the same way this time. I don't know if it's that we already have the baby stuff, so nothing new to get. I don't know if it is the constant morning/noon/night sickness that lasted the whole pregnancy last time (and I am scared that it will this time as well). Or maybe it is just that it is that I have a two year old now. He could make anyone tired.

I can't wait to feel the kicks and punches of little tiny feet and hands. I am also excited that my son will have a little brother or sister to fight with. I have a long time before that happens, but in the meantime, I must enjoy the fact that I am still little enough that I
