HEy, there's a baby in there!

We had our first OB appointment today. Alianna got to come since ArJay was coming too. We got to see the baby on the ultrasound and the little squeegee even kicked and flung it's arms around. Alianna was a little worried about what the doctor was doing but otherwise she did pretty well. I LOVE my new OB. She was super excited for us, very understanding of my aversion to inductions, and kept telling us how funny and fun we were. What more could you wish for! The funniest apart was as she was starting the ultrasound she asked what we were thinking it was. I said I was thinking boy just because it is completely different and I have been eating EVERYTHING and not as sick. She said that is usually how it goes. We shall see.....

My Eggo is Preggo

So...I have been debating when to make this announcement. On one hand I am still REALLY early in the pregnancy and you are not really supposed to talk about it yet. But on the other hand, we are soo stinking excited and ArJay has already been telling people ( remember how he was "not telling a soul until 12 weeks this time" not so much. He started calling family as soon as I showed him the test). Plus I have been getting some funny looks from some friends as the morning sickness hit hard and early and I look a lot like old Chinese food warmed up and left on the counter for a couple of days. Don't want anyone worrying, I'm not dying and I (hopefully) will have a cute glow in another 6 weeks instead of the deathly pale pallor I am currently sporting.

We are super excited, nervous, anxious, thrilled and a million other emotions. It is a little strange to me how much more I worry and think about it the second time around. I guess because we are not just changing our lives but Alianna's as well. I was a little worried, but I'm pretty sure she'll be an awesome big sis since she has been taking such good care of her ill momma. Yesterday as I was puking my guts out she came up and patted my back, leaned on my back, and saw that I was still sick, she started the whole process over. When I was finished she gave me a huge smile and hug. Today as I was puking( noticing a pattern?) she came and patted me, realized it wasn't helping, and ran into the next room where dad was and grabbed him frantically saying"UP! UP! Hep!hep!"(help). She has even been very patient with all the movies she ahs to watch because Momma can't get the energy for anything else, although I'm pretty sure she is soo tortured to have to watch her "Belle" Cinderella twice a day...NOT

So,to answer all the basic questions: I'm due March 1st, they'll be about 28 months apart, and we honestly do not care what it is. We love our girl and would love another but it would be fun to try the other side with a boy.
