Baby Neal #2 is on its way!
With an estimated arrival on October 9, 2009. We are thrilled to be adding a new addition to our growing family - and are excited for Annelise to have a sibling.
And yes, I'll answer your questions before they even get asked:
- I can't honestly say this was planned. But as Dr. Laura says "anything not prevented is planned." Let's just say, God has a plan and His is perfect!
- I am very sick - even more so than the first time around. Always in the evenings between 4 and 8. Which means lots of eating out - and definitely no cooking for me.
- Annelise is very excited, even though she has no idea. Matt is equally thrilled, in spite of knowing all too well what is about to happen to us.
- I had my first Dr. Appointment yesterday, which confirmed there actually is a baby growing inside of me - both by the doctor's reaction ("You're definitely pregnant!") and the ultrasound she conducted afterwards.
Christmas 2008 was celebrated with one grandchild. Christmas 2009 will be peppered with a two year old, a tenth month old and a newborn. My parents are feeling older as the days go by.
We are excited to share this beautiful experience with you all. Here's to another round of babies!
