And then there was two...

I've been so busy that blogging hasn't been an option, but I thought I would take time during lunch break to update our exciting news.  Braylea is going to be a big sister the end of February!  We are both nervous and thrilled all at the same time.  Having the first child, you have the unknown to be always excited about.  The second seems very different.  I am ready to have a baby again, but then again, I know what to expect and I question myself..am I ready for all of that again? :)  Braylea is so independent now in which gives us a lot more freedom as well.  It will be a big change to expand our family but overall we are happy and hoping for the opposite sex to be able to experience raising a different gender. 
I'm 10 weeks currently and actually feel pretty good.  I don't feel as sick as last time, so that is a plus.  Summer time isn't a great time to be early prego, I've decided, because we are always going and doing and then all I really want to do is sleep!  But I'm hanging in there!
I decided not to go back to my doctor in Chanute because of the drive - I loved her and the staff, but always dreaded that drive.  I had heard very good things about Dr.Horani here in Parsons and was very pleased with her on our first visit.  It will be nice to stay in Parsons in case of an emergency.

                                               Introducing Baby Nutter - our lil gummy bear..

Sis is very excited - when we told her that she was going to be a big sister, her eyes lit up and she said, "I'm going to have a little brother to feed and change??"  It was so cute - I hope I don't disappoint her and have another girl! haha.
She told her aunt the other day that her mommy's belly was going to get really big because her baby brother was going to grow inside of her and after her birthday, he was going to come.  Where does she get this??  She amazes me more and more everyday of what she takes in and understands!  She just recently got really into baby dolls, so I think she will be my little helper and a great big sister.
