Extra, Extra Read All About It

I am officially out of hiding. Our little family is about to get one baby bigger. Woohoo! At this point, family knows, most friends know and work knows. It isn't like I could keep the cat in the bag much longer as I look like I did when I was five months with The Boy and I am only three months pregnant. I guess it is true what they say, you start to show quicker with your second pregnancy.



A couple of things we will be doing differently this time...

1. We ARE NOT finding out the gender of the baby. The Husband wanted to know with The Boy, so I gave in, but not this time...I want to have the genuine surprise.

2. We will let more people help us this time. With The Boy we were in Texas...far away from anyone we consider family. And, let's face it, there are certain things that you only ask family to help with. My friends and coworkers in Dallas were fantastic though and I will never forget their generosity. One thing that will not change, however, is how many people we be in the room for delivery...5. That includes me, The Husband, the Doctor, the nurse and the baby. I am not one of those women who will give in and allow every person with a genetic link to be present for the birth. It just creeps me out.

3. We will master swaddling. I don't know how we will do it, but we will learn it, practice it, and make it work.

That is all for now. More to come.
