Big News In the Making......




I have wanted to write this post for the past few weeks, but dared not until a few important people had been told in person!  So, the big news?  In June 2013 we will no longer be a family of 3, but rather a family of 4!!!  Yup you read it right….I am expecting J  Nick and I went to the OB/GYN on Thursday the 25th to confirm what 6 or 7 pregnancy tests told us, and low and behold, there on the ultrasound screen was this little pumpkin with a heart just fluttering away!!!  It’s hard to believe that things happened so fast for us a second time, but I think it was God’s way of telling us that our thoughts are right in line with His J

        Our official due date is June 12, 2013, but Emma was a few weeks early, so we’ll see how it goes this time!  I guess my main concern, as I’m sure it is for many second-time parents, is about how to make Emma know she’s still the center of our world, along with this other new little person.  I’m trying not to dwell on it too much because I know that it will just happen, and the more we include her, the better!  I found this cute survey online to help document how things change weekly with the pregnancy, and thought it would be something fun to do and to look back on!
