Did I read in a post that you're expecting?

Hey there!

Sorry I didn't see this sooner - I've been crazy busy and not keeping up with the boards. I'm working full time, now, plus taking a class and trying to get settled in our new neighborhood. Our house needs a lot of work, so the projects are never-ending!

Yes, we're expecting AGAIN!!! This one was a complete surprise. I didn't even know it could happen without all of our TTC efforts, so we had a few weeks of being totally panicked and freaked out. We'd just moved and I didn't have a doctor or know anything about the area hospitals... Plus, I had NO IDEA how pregnant I was :) I felt like an idiot :) Luckily I'd just started weaning the baby, so I was still taking my vitamins and had been eating fairly clean (i.e. no drinking). By the time I got to my first appt, I was at 14 weeks so the time has been flying by.

So far, all is well - the OB practice that we found is okay and I'm starting to get a little more comfortable with them. They do things so differently here, though, that I'm praying a lot and hoping that it all works out. I know most of my anxiety is self-induced, and that everything has tested fine so far, so I just need to relax :) The baby (another girl!!!) is measuring pretty small, so we're monitoring with ultrasounds. All the others were small, too, so it's not a huge surprise, but this one is starting the growth slow-down a lot earlier. Everything looks good, though, other than size. They're planning to induced at the end of May, or 1st week of June.

Hope you're doing well, too! How is the family, and how are you?! What's Jadon up to?! Our 'baby' is a complete maniac (in a good way :) ) - running, climbing, exploring EVERYTHING! She got kicked out of the baby room at daycare when she was 10 months old :) She's with the toddlers, now, and really enjoying herself. In a wonderful coincidence, we got the baby weaned onto whole milk (i.e. no more formula) the same month #2 gave up her diapers, so I'm really having a nice break from all the bottle washing and diaper changing!! I know it won't last, but boy, is it nice at the moment!! :D

Thanks for asking - it's really nice to 'see' you again! I miss the check-in...

We're in Harrisburg PA, now. I think we're going to like it here - it's close to a lot of places that we like to visit: D.C, Baltimore, Philly, NYC, etc. Just need to get the house fixed up! The weather has been pretty rough, but I'm told that it's pretty unusual for here. It's been that way all around, I think :)

And, yes, I think we'll be busy :D But it should be fun!
