Great News!!

Since we started our vacation with my husband's parents (which was the middle of June) I have felt very tired. This is a fatigue I am all too familiar with, and while my ladies days had been right around the corner during that period of time I didn't think much of it, even though deep down I just "knew".

I chalked all my symptoms up to my upcoming ladies days, because on the day I was supposed to get it, I took an at home pregnancy test and it came back negative. I tried telling myself it would just be late, that maybe I was under stress and this is why it would be overdue, maybe my new exercise regimen was the culprit. It would still come any day now.

But . . . . I have never been one to ignore my gut feeling and intuition. Although I took a pregnancy test the previous day, something just didn't sit right with me, and so I asked my husband, Tim, to please pick up a couple more tests just so I could make sure.

On the day after my missed period, I took the second test, and boom! It came back with two lines, and I found out that I am pregnant!!

You cannot believe how excited I am, I can barely contain myself. Like Tim, I know I want more kids. So we are excited. Kind of scared this time, because that is just normal, we felt the same way with Lukas, but more happy and excited than anything! :)

We are waiting to give everybody (family and our close friends) the big news later, but I wanted to update my blog. This time, instead of over the phone from so far away, we want to make it special and give everyone the news face to face if possible. I cannot wait to tell my in-laws! They are so close to us and we have such a wonderful family I could not ask for more, they are the type of family you extend and want to add on to and keep the generations going teehee :) yes they are absolutely amazing! I am so lucky to be with them.
