Best Mother's Day Ever

We're having another baby!

I had known all week that Mother's Day was probably the day to test, but didn't want to have it to be a disappointing Mother's Day, so I decided to test early on Friday and was a little bummed when it was negative.  I had a couple of early pregnancy symptoms on Saturday, so Sunday afternoon I decided what the heck...I already think I'm not pregnant, may as well just double check.  I took two tests before telling Travis, just to be sure.  I then proceeded to take four more that afternoon/evening.  All positive.

We have decided not to tell Caleb yet as we have no idea how to help him understand if this pregnancy ends the same as our first.  I'm pretty sure he will be excited to be a big brother...at least until baby is here and he truly learns what it means to share.  He's been asking for us to get a baby for quite a while (some good friends recently had one). I've been telling him it's not up to me, so he needs to ask God.  So about every other day he says "Mom, want ask God for a baby."  And then we pray together for a new baby.

We are very excited, but also terrified.

As far as due date, I'm getting either January 16th or 19th depending on which online calculator I use...like I said, welcome to sharing Caleb.  We will start by sharing your birthday week.

I haven't heard back from the doctor yet about when to come in or what their estimated due date is.  I'm guessing she will say come at 10 weeks for ultrasound.
