Announcement!

We're pregnant! This announcement should have been made a while ago, but we wanted to wait until we went to the doctor to make it. Turns out, we still haven't been to the doctor - and it might still be a month until we get there, so we thought we might as well spread the news so people stop thinking I'm just fat. :) So, if we haven't been to the doctor, who's ultrasound picture is that? Don't know - got it off the internet, but I thought we needed a visual! :) This was a surprise baby, so we were caught a bit off guard...and to be completely honest, we were even a little bit dissapointed at first. (Is that awful?!?!?) But we really are excited about it now, and are really looking forward to a new addition to the family. Ivy was apparently intended to be a young big sister, but we know she will be a great one. I think I'm about 17 weeks along - but like I said, I can't say that for sure. They had to do an ultraound with Ivy to measure her to get a definate due date, so we'll see. But it looks like it will be around the first of September. Yeah! So many babies are coming - can't wait!

YEAH!!!!! I am so excited for you! We have had one of those unexpected babies before and it is totally normal to be apprehensive but Heavenly Father will bless you in so many ways! How are you feeling?

Congratulations!! That's got to be an interesting feeling to have a "surprise" like that, but you're right: it must be meant to be. Good luck and hope you're feeling well!

Congratulations! I wondered why your blog was absent from new posts for awhile! I did the same thing when we found out we were expecting and was too soon to say anything, nothing seemed important enough to blog about in the meantime! Don't feel bad about the disappointed feeling, I can totally relate. I'm still in school and just the thought of how a baby was going to change everything made us feel a mix of emotions, none of which I would say was elation at first. But soon after we got excited about it. Well you're first one is so stinkin cute that you were just meant to add one more the mix right away! :)

Kara! How exciting! I think it's great when siblings are close in age - they always have a friend to hang out with. What a blessing this new little baby will be. They couldn't wait any longer to join your family!

Congratulations! What a surprise! I can't believe Ivy is walking! I love those boots, I want some for me! What a sweetie!

Serena said...

Congratulations! Sorry I'm so late on giving them. That's so great you guys are expecting! How fun that they will be close. I'm sure it will be a challenge at first, but they'll be such great playmates eventually! We need to hang out again. It's been too long! You must have got a new phone number again, and I don't have it, so we'll have to get in touch via e-mail, or you can give me a ring. I still have the same number. Love ya! I hope you are feeling great and the business is going well too!
