are we April Foolin' you??

Nope, this little boy is telling the truth! We're having another baby!

Time to finally spill the beans on our secret and I know, shock a good lot of you as well. Believe me, we were certainly surprised when we found out ourselves ... apparently once is really all it takes! Ha! (Amazing too after our over 2 year struggle to conceive Henry, so we are really more thankful than anything.)

I am already almost 13 weeks along and so for those of you with quick math skills, yes, that means that this due date is October 9th ... but with a scheduled c-section we're really looking at this baby's arrival within days of Henry's 1st birthday! Oh my ... I never imagined. Still, I am feeling as wonderful as I did with Henry, no morning sickness at all, just brutally tired in the early weeks and insomnia some nights even now.

We're happy, happy, happy around here, a little stunned, and very excited to finally tell everyone!

(Also, I've been busy blogging the past 2 days as well so I hope you're keeping up ... scroll on down!)
