Oh wow!

Oh wow is right!  Sam is going to be a big brother!  Ack!  We are really excited about it, but I haven't told many people and it is a little scary seeing it in writing!  lol   I swear, God likes to surprise me!  So a quick background story for those who would like to hear it, if not skip to bottom!  When Sam was 6 months old, yes only 6 months old, I got bit by the baby bug!  What was I thinking?  So we decided to just table it until he was 1 and then go for it.  Several months later, nothing and I was determined not to get in that horrible mind set I had before Sam, so I just looked at all the blessings I had and if God was going to give us another then he was and if he wasn't then he wasn't....not sure if I really felt that but I tried so hard to think that way!  Then for a few months I went to my infertility doc and ended up injection shots after a few months of nothing.  Then my insurance changed in Feb. and I called it quits.  I quietly returned to Weight Watchers and started run/walking at home...lost 17 lbs and I think that was the ticket for me.  I had ordered some ovulation tests and pregnancy test from my all time favorite site amazon and took 1 of each when they arrived.  The pregnancy one had 2 lines- WHAT?  So I shoved Sam in the car w/out shoes on and got a digital one....I really couldn't believe that I was shocked by another positive.  So, the next day was Jarrett's birthday and it was so fun to put Sam in his big bro tee shirt and tell him we had a gift for him!  I have been the color green for what feels like 4ever (and ever and ever)- but I will take it.  It is amazing that God is trusting us with another child!  The new bundle is due on Dec. 29- poor Jarrett...this is how his gift giving schedule goes...Dec. 25 Christmas, Dec. 30 our anniversary and his dad's bday, Jan. 7 my bday...and now a baby sometime in that mix!  Good thing he is a non complaining roll with the punches type of guy!  PS- if you are a FB friend don't say anything yet, I still need to tell a few peeps in person and want to wait just a lil bit more but I am busting at the seems to share- guess that will make it real right? :)
