It's Time for a Little Two-on-Two! ...


Oh how we love our happy boy! And for those who are especially observant, you will recognize that Trevor is smiling at the knowledge he is going to be a BIG BROTHER! And for those wondering, let it be said that "YES, we know what causes this." I found out Thursday, when I took a test on a whim, that I was pregnant. It's safe to say we are equally shocked and delighted! If our calculations are correct (and clearly we show room for improvement in the counting and calendar department), "numero dos" will be due some time in mid January, making Trevor and his sequel 14.5 months apart.

I am barely pregnant, and have not yet been to the doctor to find out whether this is a healthy pregnancy. For those that don't know, I miscarried before becoming pregnant with Trevor, so the early stages of pregnancy are always a bit nerve-racking. I've been for the required blood tests and am already taking progesterone supplements (just in case). I should hear something back about my hormone levels tomorrow and we'll know better where we stand. I realize some may frown at sharing the news of a risky pregnancy so early in the game, but frankly, if we were faced with another loss, I'd certainly want my friends and family to know what we're going through. This brings me to the prayer part- please pray friends, for a healthy baby, a not-so tired mommy and a relatively easy-going Trevor over the next several months. We'll keep you posted! Thank you! We love you!

OMG! That is wonderful! My girlfriend just came over to show me her little test she took yesterday and she too believes to be pregnant. She also lost her last pregnancy a few months back after 3 months into the pregnancy. I also miscarried before I had Morgan. So we know how delicate this time is. However you both will be due in January. So exciting. Oh and what a beautiful smile big brother has on his face. :)

Its almost time (6 weeks is almost here) for me... you know what that means after giving birth. So I am off to the doctors because I don't want any little "wonderful surprises". LOL

Congrats again girl.

AAAAHH! Yay! I'm so excited for you! I will be praying for Trevor's precious little sibling to arrive safely and I can't wait to see you! We're attempting Sunday school again on Sunday. ;)
