Surprise, Surprise!


In Levi's words:

"Des a baby in der.  When it comes out we gonna hug it an kiss it
an change its diaper!"
~All said while grinning and pretending to change its diaper on my tummy.


That's right...barefoot munchkin #2 is headed our way.  We are over the moon excited, and a tad nervous that I'll be giving birth in a construction zone.  Oh, do renovations never cease?!

So, for inquiring minds here are the stats:

Due date: September 10 or 11...I can never remember which.  Blame it on pregnancy brain.

Sex: We aren't finding out, so your guess is as good as mine.  In case you're wondering everyone around here thinks it's a girl, so it will probably be a boy.  ;)

My Belly: Rapidly expanding but more in an "I've gained 10 pounds round the middle" kind of way...not the cute baby belly bump kind of way.  Sigh.

Sonograms: You won't see any, because unless there's an emergency we won't be having any.

Planned Location for Birth: Home! :)

Caregiver: A wonderful midwife named Norma.

Yay!

  25. Hey you too! Congratulations! We are due within days of each other actually! My EDD is the 8th.

    I had a girl in a family full to the brim of boys (on Chris' side there was one girl and 7 boys when Jemima was born) so you never know.

    Hope you are feeling well. I am doing better, but still not well enough for my liking. And I have the chubby tummy too. All for a good cause, right?
