...and the Officially Late Announcement!

OK, so you would think that I could have gotten my act together a little sooner and made the announcement official, but let's face it, I am a procrastinator. *sigh* Well, here it is anyways, if you haven't already heard (or noticed) I'm pregnant! Yippee!
I am about 19 weeks along now...which is anyone's best guess, including my doctor who freely admits it. But, when we get our ultrasound done on May 25th, they will pin down a slightly more accurate due date. Right now we are saying it is October 12, but of course this little one will come when he or she is ready. So, i guess this means I will be entering my third and most fabulous trimester right in the thick of summer! I already got a cute maternity swim suit and plan to spend lots of time cooling off in Randy's pool, I mean teaching Alex to swim...haha! OK, so I will do a little of both. I have always promised myself that I would never be pregnant in the heat of the summer...now I will eat my words!

I have been feeling a lot better lately...It seems that after throwing up everyday since I was about 5 weeks along, I am finally over that part. I do have to run to the porcelain god every once in a while, but it has drastically decreased since about 2 weeks ago! Another Yippee! The only real difference between this baby and Alex when he was in my tummy is that the throwing up stopped about a month earlier than it did with Alex (thank goodness) and I have been feeling the baby move since he or she was about 13 weeks or so. I felt the baby kick my hand for the first time about 2 weeks ago and it has been kicking ever since. Paul has even felt him or her a few times. Alex was a wiggly little guy in my tummy all the time, and this one is no different.

We will find out if baby is a boy or a girl on the 25th (hopefully, if the little bean cooperates). Paul is hoping for a boy, Alex wants a girl, and I am happy either way. We will all of course be excited, whatever the outcome may be.

That's all for now, but be assured that I will post again when we find out the results. Anyone want to guess? Leave a comment!
